German thrash brigade Kreator are back with “Strongest of the Strong,” the second single to arrive from their long-awaited new album, Hate Über Alles, which is set for a June 10 release.
For the last two decades, Kreator have been discharging scorching thrash enmeshed with melodic triumph and, here, it feels especially effective as vocalist/guitarist Mille Petrozza dedicates another track to the concept of a societal uprising and pushing back at oppressive forces.
“‘Strongest of the Strong’ represents every person on this planet who is striving to become a force of good in a world filled with a lot of bad,” said Petrozza. “It’s a straightforward banger with a message that only one man could carry — his name is Patrik ‘Earthraiser’ Baboumian! Great working with him in the studio and on the music video, a man with a lot of shared values with my own. We hope you enjoy!”

Kreator, “Strongest of the Strong” Lyrics
No messiahs there’s just us, among corpses of patriarchs
No more heaven, only this, lives led with an iron fist as we live through it stealing fire from the kings we will light the flamesOh!
Strongest of the Strong
Curse their world
Curse them all
We will rise they will fall
Oh!
Strongest of the StrongCurse their words curse their lies we will live they will die
There’s no history, only now, among rats below the vultures
Transformation from within this death leads to awakening stealing fire from the kings, with an iron fist we will light the flameOh!
Strongest of the Strong
Curse their world, curse them all, we will rise they will fall
Oh!
Strongest of the Strong
Curse their words curse their lies we will live, they will die
Strongest of the strong, Strongest of the Strong, Strongest of the strong, Strongest of the Strong
Oh! Strongest of the Strong, Strongest of the strong, Strongest of the StrongBurn the thrones
Strongest of the Strong Curse their words curse their lies we will live, they will die
Hahahahahaha
