Recorded at Phoenix Studio, Bochum in 1986.
Metal band Kreator had been around for awhile before they released Pleasure to Kill in 1986. Many in the underground metal scene were already paying special attention to the German outfit's proto-death sound, but the cult status was shed after this critically and commercially successful sophomore effort hit record-store shelves. As fierce and unyielding as the group's debut, Endless Pain, was, Pleasure to Kill provides double the sonic carnage and superior material. Standout tracks include the syncopated "Riot of Violence" and the sprawling closer "Awakening of the Gods." Pleasure to Kill might not be the best recording from Kreator, but in many ways, it could be the most significant. Fans of the group simply must own this seminal European metal offering. ~ Vincent Jeffries

Kreator Pleasure To Kill Songs Pleasure To Kill Music Review Average Rating: (4.2 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews These reviewers are insane...
Wow, are you guys pansies or what? "Oh my God, I can't take the drumming, it's hurting my ear drums, ah!" Oh, shove it. This album is a brutal Thrash assault from start to finish. If you can't handle it, then you're weak. One of the Top 5 brutal thrash albums of all time. Nothing more to say. Just give it a listen, and let it blow you away. It's insane.

Classic German 80's Thrash!
This is a great album! You can't get anymore classic than this "ripping corpse attack" of an 80's thrash gem. Kreator brings it all together on this one: brutal technicality combined with their tell-tale shrieking vocals and brilliant lyrics. If your a fan of Slayer's Reign in Blood or early Metallica, then this is an album for you. No thrash fans collection is complete without Pleasure to Kill in it. This already great record sounds even better on this remastered edition with the Flag of Hate EP songs as bonus tracks. The only weakness of this album is that tracks 6-9 are rather more generic then the first 5 standout tracks, but then the last 3 FOH songs end things strongly. "Ripping Corpse", "Death Is Your Saviour", "Riot of Violence", and the title track "Pleasure to Kill" are all killer, grim thrash blasts. I strongly recommend getting this cd!

The best thrash metal album EVER!!!
Very aggressive,fast paced,terrifying at times. The most evil sounding thrash metal album.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Not their best
Really a nice and very brutal one. However, I don't understand that Pleasure to Kill is Kreator's classic. Apart of their new ones (Enemy of God and Violent Revolution) I deeply recommend to listen to Coma of Souls! ..far more intelligent and unique - in my opinion their true masterpiece!

Purchase Pleasure To Kill CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Possessed Seven Churches CD (1985) Remastered
Pleasure To Kill
 $10.69  
This is part of Combat's The Remasters Of Metal series.
German import available on Roadrunner [RO 9757-2].
Often cited as the first true death metal record ever released (Florida's Death had been around just as long but would only make their vinyl debut a few years later), Possessed's Seven Churches took thrash metal's intensity to new levels of brutality. With song titles like "Burning in Hell," "Satan's Curse," and "The Exorcist" (featuring the famous movie's eerie title theme for an intro), the band definitely displayed a strong Slayer influence; but it was Possessed growler Jeff Becerra who first introduced the barely decipherable grunting vocal style which would epitomize the death metal genre. Among the highlights, "Pentagram," "Twisted Minds," and "Fallen Angel" have best ...

On Extreme Aggression, a successful Kreator closes the '80s by delivering their final thrash triumph.

Pleasure To Kill
$10.45
Includes 3 bonus tracks from FLAG OF HATE.
Kreator includes: Mille (vocals, guitar); Ventor (vocals, drums); Rob (bass).
Recorded at CEAT Studios, Berlin, Germany in March 1985. Includes liner notes by Mille Petrozza.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.
Kreator would eventually become one of the dominant European thrash outfits of the late '80s, but their 1985 debut, Endless Pain, wasn't much more than a musical starting point from which the band sorely needed to grow. Promising moments during numbers like "Total Death," "Storm of the Beast," and "Living in Fear" hint at ...

Recorded at Horus Studio, Hanover, Germany and Musiclab, Berlin, Germany, May 1988; live at The Dynamo Festival, Eindhoven, Germany on May 31, 1988.
Kreator dialed in their modern thrash on Terrible Certainty, the group's third full-length offering. One of the most highly anticipated European metal records of the decade, this 1987 release proves that the previous year's hit, Pleasure to Kill, wasn't a fluke, and that Kreator was capable of delivering under pressure. The German outfit cranks up the technical difficulty ...

Pleasure To Kill

Audio Mixers: Steve Heinke; Randy Burns.
Recording information: Eldorado Recording Studio, Hollywood, CA; Image Recording Studios, Hollywood, CA.
Photographer: Martin Becker.
Although they remained largely without peer when it came to pure Germanic thrash metal, by the time of 1990's Coma of Souls, Kreator's very successful formula had begun to grow a little tired. The fact that they were coming off perhaps their biggest album yet in 1989's Extreme Aggression didn't help matters, and despite its overwhelmingly solid songwriting, Coma of Souls still sounded somewhat repetitive to all but the most unquestioning of fans. Still, better too much of a good thing than nothing at all, and with their head-spinning musicianship and well-chosen stabs at melody, complex moshers like "When the Sun Burns Red," "Angels of Brutality," and the title song are guaranteed to thrill lovers ...

Personnel: Steve Morse (guitar); Van Romaine (drums).
Audio Mixers: Ronan Chris Murphy; Steve Morse.

Illustrator: Dave McKean.
Occasional Dixie Dregs frontman and solo fret shredder Steve Morse tackles a fascinating project here as he plays each of these 11 instrumental tunes in the style of a different guitarist and/or band who was influential on his own technique. From obvious six-string heroes Clapton, Page, Hendrix, and Jeff Beck to more obscure ones like Mountain's Leslie West, Mahavishnu Orchestra's John McLaughlin, the Byrds' Roger McGuinn, with stops at George Harrison, Duane Allman, and Keith Richards, Morse grabs onto riffs, song passages, tones, and direct guitar quotes from these stars then inserts them into original tunes written expressly for this undertaking. Not surprisingly some work better than others. The chunky "Start Me Up" approach of "How Does It Feel" sounds as if the new song was simply rewritten with a few of Richards' trademarked chords. "Led On," Morse's Jimmy Page tribute where he attempts to stuff as much of Page's Indian, blues, and crunch stylized techniques as can be shoehorned into one song, results in a choppy, unfocused, and over-busy jumble. ...
