German thrash titans Kreator have revealed some photos from the video shoot for the title track of their upcoming album, Gods Of Violence, set to be released on January 27, 2017 worldwide via Nuclear Blast Records. The pictures from the video shoot are shown below in the slideshow. The video was shot with renowned video production company Grupa13 who have done videos for bands such as Amon Amarth and Behemoth to name but a few.
Frontman and main songwriter Mille Petrozza comments:
“We have prepared an amazing video trilogy with Grupa13 for our new album. We believe that they are among the most creative artists when it comes to surreal video art. The story line is linked to our album concept and the first clip visualizes the birth of the Kreator demon. Watch out, the video is to be released soon!”
The lyrics for the song have also been released which can be seen below:
WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL
Rise God of violence in immortal majesty
The forces of seperatists to arms
Malicious titans and the fear their words can breed
The one commandment echoe forth as clouds of drones attackWE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL
Rise of usurpers, indestructible regimes
And in times of war destroyers of hope
Kings of the Earth inject the core of the doctrine
Conflict yield to degradate the strongest minds of allWE SHALL KILL- All as one
WE SHALL KILL – These battles can be won
WE SHALL KILL – Until we dieAs the GODS OF VIOLENCE
GODS OF VIOLENCE
GODS OF VIOLENCE come aliveWE SHALL KILL- All as one
WE SHALL KILL – These battles can be won
WE SHALL KILL – Until we dieAs the GODS OF VIOLENCE
GODS OF VIOLENCE
GODS OF VIOLENCE come aliveDehumanizing killing spree, supported by technology
Women, children everyone will die
Praying there must come a day, the spark of peace enflames again
Heaven through the world into their lives
Protectors of the masterplan, waken darker sides of men
Instigate the war for all to see
Collateral damage in their name posse of luciferian
Commanders of satanic liberty libertyWE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL
WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL WE SHALL KILL
WE SHALL KILL- All as one
WE SHALL KILL – These battles can be won
WE SHALL KILL – Until we dieAs the GODS OF VIOLENCE
GODS OF VIOLENCE
GODS OF VIOLENCE come alive
