Following Wednesday's mega-news that Kreator are getting ready to drop their sixteenth studio album Krushers Of The World on January 16 via Nuclear Blast Records, the band have now shared the cinematic music video for the album's crushing opening track and first single "Seven Serpents".  The storyline of the video itself gives off vibes of Pirates Of The Caribbean and Lord Of The Rings, while the music is that mix of power metal and thrash that defines Kreator in the 21st century.

In addition, the full track listing has also been revealed, and all can be seen down below.  You can catch Kreator on tour in the spring across Europe with support from Carcass, Exodus and Nails, with further worldwide dates to be announced soon.

Krushers Of The World track listing:

01.  Seven Serpents
02.  Satanic Anarchy
03.  Krushers Of The World
04.  Tranenpalast
05.  Barbarian
06.  Blood Of Our Blood
07.  Combatants
08.  Psychotic Imperator
09.  Deathscream
10.  Loyal To The Grave

Oh boy, we got a double-dose of big news from Kreator today, which includes new music and touring.  That being said, the German thrash legends have announced the release of their sixteenth studio album titled Krushers Of The World, and is due for release on January 16 through Nuclear Blast Records.

The band went back to enlist the one and only Jens Bogren for production duties, who also produced Phantom Antichrist and Gods Of Violence, two of the band's strongest albums ever.  While the track listing has yet to be revealed, the first single "Seven Serpents" will be released this Friday, along with album pre-orders and the tour pre-sale.  The artwork can also be seen down below, created by Zbigniew M. Bielak, and it kind of resembles the Gods Of Violence cover.

In additional news, Kreator have announced a massive European tour for the spring of 2026 in support of the album, with Carcass, Exodus and Nails serving as special guests, which you can see the tour dates for down below.  The tour is set to begin on March 20 in Lisbon, Portugal and zig-zag across the continent for 28 shows before wrapping up on April 25 in Copenhagen, Denmark.  Tickets go on sale September 29 at 10 AM local time, with the tour pre-sale beginning September 26.
