From Gods of Violence (2017). Gods of Violence is the fourteenth studio album by German thrash metal band Kreator, released on 27 January 2017 by Nuclear Blast. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so an ESP LTD EC-1000 through a Marshall JCM800 2203, the rig we use for Kreator's other songs from Gods of Violence, stands in. Set the amp to a driven, high-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup.
