A ton of special guests shared the stage with Volbeat on Aug. 26, including Metallica’s Lars Ulrich, Kreator’s Mille Petrozza & Napalm Death’s Barney Greenway.
Kreator received some well deserved love in the first week of sales for their new album Phantom Antichrist and I tell you all about in in the latest edition of my "Brutal News".
To me, German Thrash is so distinctive. I don't know what it is about European Metal as a whole, but there's more of a classical influence than the Thrash that I love so much delivered by their American contemporaries (not that there aren't plenty of classically influenced bands here in this country).
