Kreator mainman Mille Petrozza posted an end of year message on his Instagram page reflecting on 2023 and plans for the future, including recording a new album at the beginning of 2025.
The message reads:
"Hordes!
"I want to take some time to reflect on 2023. It has been an amazing year for Kreator. We've played some fantastic shows and were invited to the biggest and best metal festivals on the planet. In a total of 85 concerts, we've visited our friends all over the world. I got super sick in Argentina and Costa Rica, but the fans there carried me through the concert with their energy, even though I had the worst flue one can imagine.
"It's hard to pick a moment from all the magic moments we've created together during this run. You, the fans have been fantastic everywhere! It makes me happy and proud to be a part of the metal community.
"But guess what? 2024 will be even better! We are kicking off the year by bringing Klash Of The Titans to Japan, Australia, India, Indonesia, Thailand, China and we'll visit our fans in Malaysia and Singapore again after many years. We are joined by our friends from @inflames for most of these shows.
"There will be a HUGE announcement for our European Hordes in January. I can't talk about details yet but let me tell you this much: no thrash metal maniac will be disappointed!
"We are also working on another north American tour, plus we plan to record our next record in the beginning of 2025, as I am working on new Kreator music as we speak!
"There will also be our cinematic documentary coming in 25, created by director Cordula Kablitz Post.
"As this year is coming to an end, I want to thank you for your energy, your support, singing along to our songs at the shows, starting the wildest pits and creating magic wherever we went in 2023.”
