Metal titans KREATOR have released a new single from their highly anticipated sixteenth full-length, “Krushers Of The World”, which will be out on 16th January 2026 via Nuclear Blast Records.
Just in time for Halloween, the song ‘Tränenpalast’ is a comprehensive homage to horror maestro Dario Argento’s 1977 cult film Suspiria, which is hailed by fans as one of the most defining genre entries of its era. While the lead melody references the film’s original score by Italian prog band Goblin, lending it a melodic death metal touch, the lyrics mention “the three mothers,” an ancient witch coven from the Suspiria universe. In addition, the music video created by acclaimed masters of the macabre, Grupa 13, features KREATOR performing in the film’s haunted ballet school setting complemented by disturbing images of said witches in various stages of transformation. You can watch the video below … if you dare!
‘Tränenpalast‘ features vocal coach Britta Görtz of extreme metal band HIRAES on guest vocals.
Mille Petrozza commented:
“‘Tränenpalast’ is our tribute to the great tradition of Italian cinema. We drew inspiration from Dario Argento’s classic Suspiria and Luca Guadagnino’s epic masterpiece remake. Musically, we bow to the great Goblin, in direct conversation with maestro Claudio Simonetti. We hope you enjoy the song as much as we do. Only love to the greats! Hail to the Hordes!”
