Some would say that this show kicks the shit out of all the previous shows this year; but I'm not going to go there any more or make comparisons because it's too hard after the year of awesome tours we've had. Suffice it to say that it was killer.

From start to finish, this show was absolute gold. Aussie thrashers Mortal Sin put on a killer set and did their best to warm up the crowd for Kreator; but when Kreator hit the stage they weren't so much upstaged as seen to be in a completely different class. The German thrash gods played thrash the way it's meant to be: fast, intense, and without compromise.
