German thrash legends KREATOR will embark on a North American headlining tour in April/May in 2009 with fellow old-schoolers EXODUS, Austrian black/death metal horde BELPHEGOR, and promising young thrashers WARBRINGER and EPICUREAN. Kreator have finished recording their new album, Hordes of Chaos, which is being mixed by Collin Richardson.
According to the band's mainman Mille Petrozza, "KREATOR is very excited to come to the USA and Canada again to play for all our fans overseas! This will be a killer tour and we're expecting total chaos at the shows. We're honored to have such a great bands as EXODUS on the bill, they have been — and still are — a huge inspiration for us. It'll also be cool to see BELPHEGOR and WARBRINGER every night. It's been way too long since we've been among the North American metal hordes!"
