Eww... This is easily Kreator's worst album... Someone here needs to review Coma of Souls, Endless Pain or Pleasure to Kill as those are some great albums. Hell, Violent Revolution, which got a 71, is infinitely better than this one, even though it has some crappy songs.

I don't know how this got on the classics list. It must be a really old review. Plus, black metal? If Chris thinks Endorama is thrash/black metal... well, poor chris lol.

Pretty much every CD Kreator has done is better than this. I've been meaning to do some reviews starting with Endless Pain. I'll try and get some done since now there is a demand for them... even if it's only one person who wants to see them.

71 for Violent Revolution is a travesty! Awesome thrash IMO

Excellent... Thanks a lot man. Kreator made some great thrash, and deserve to have their great albums reviewed.

Well the review is full of inaccuracies. And yes this is not a good album. In fact its Kreator's worst. SOmebody already said Coma of Souls should be reviewed, so I second that. Jesus this was way off 94??? Geez!

This album is not a classic for me but i have to say that i totally desagree with people who say this album is bad or that it's Kreator's worst album..First of all i think there's no "worst album" in Kreator's discography as i totally praise everyfuckinthing those guys have done and i think all their albums are fuckin great.One of the reasons i hold this band in great estim is the diversity of their productions, and this album is a great example,as it's very different from everything they've done .If you're looking for agression then get Extreme Agression or Pleasure toKill but if you want something darker this one's for you;it has great atmospheres and great songwriting. Songs like Pandemonium, Willing Spirit ,Future King,Everlasting Flame,Chosen Few, Golden Age are magnificent.I really think you cannot call yourself a true Kreator fan if you don't like Endorama!

And so we have the "if you don't like every single album/song/second the band has released you are not a true fan arguement. Its quite easy to be a fan of a band yet dislike (and in this case for this album, strongly dislike) one or two of their albums.

How about some Destruction? Infernal Overkill is a classic, without a doubt...

Don't get me wrong,when I talk about the" true Kreator fan" thing ,i'm not hundred percent serious.Anyway my point is : one of the things which makes Kreator such a great band is the diversity of their music,unlike Destruction,for example,which is more onesided(that doesn't mean i don't like them).Second thing,you have to admit that even if you don't find much aggression here ,many songs on Endorama are very good (i'm talking here about songwriting skill, good sound, good playing);but maybe you like only very aggressive music. Anyway i agree one more time that this is not a classic Kreator album.

Infernal Overkill & Eternal Devastation... And Valefor, why won't you review it yourself? So many classics and archives out there make me think it would be great to have a 4th BM reviewer here... Especially with your knowledge. Plus you were a reviewer already. Or it takes to much time?

I pretty much agree with all that stub said. I wonder why, if a band changes its style but still comes up with a great album, but in a different genre, this is usually met with criticism. Endorama is a masterpiece in its own right, even though it's not thrash metal. And it doesn't need to be. People should appreciate an album for what it is, not for what they want it to be. Ok, Endorama is not a classic, and is not thrash, but is an extremely good heavy-gothic-thrash metal (if there ever was such thing) album. Hopefully (for Mille and the band) more people will acknowledge that.

Its not that its not thrash that makes me think it sucks. I just think that its a bad album (live, some of the songs are halfway decent, though). Speaking of which, Kreator in a week and a half!

Than it's a matter of taste. I for one like it, and many of my friends do, in fact a couple of them said they would have liked another Endorama-type album before the return to thrash. This coming from guys that listen mainly to black and death :)
As for live, they're a great band, you'll have a good time, especially with the new album and all. I have a great respect for Kreator, even more since they became the only metal band (except for Rotting Christ) and the first to ever play twice in my country, despite the fact that the first time they barely covered their transport costs. Promised to return again also :)
