Kreator je nemecká thrash metalová kapela z Essenu, ktorú v roku 1982 založili Mille Petrozza a Jürgen „Ventor“ Reil. Spolu s Destruction, Sodom a Tankard tvoria tzv. veľkú štvorku nemeckého thrash metalu.
Album Krushers of the World vyšiel v limitovanej box edícii obsahujúcej 2 CD a 2 vinylové LP. Prvý disk ponúka desať štúdiových skladieb od nelútostne rýchlych riffov („Barbarian“, „Psychotic Imperator“) cez temne melodické kúsky („Tränenpalast“ s hosťujúcou Brittou Görtz) až po drvivé hymny (Krushers of the World, Satanic Anarchy). Druhý disk zachytáva trinásť skladieb z koncertu na festivale 70000 Tons Of Metal v roku 2023 — živú prehliadku klasík ako Extreme Aggression, Terrible Certainty či Tormentor. Hudobná produkcia Jensa Bogrena podčiarkuje intenzitu i vyzretosť kapely, ktorá zostáva verná svojim koreňom, ale nebojí sa posunúť hranice thrashu ďalej.
