KREATOR Skulls & Skeletons Patch

Teutonic thrash metal has always operated at a different voltage. Where the Bay Area scene had melody and technical flash, Kreator came out of Essen in the mid-eighties sounding like they were genuinely furious about something, and thirty-odd albums deep, they still are.

The Skulls and Skeletons patch is the kind of imagery that makes sense when you understand that Pleasure to Kill and Extreme Aggression weren't just album titles, they were commitments. This goes on the back panel, the chest, the shoulder strap of a bag that's seen better days. It pairs well with Destruction, Sodom, and Slayer patches for a battle jacket that tells a very specific and correct story about the history of aggressive music.

Woven sew-on patch. 70mm wide, 100mm tall. Band origin: Germany. Stocked by ALT CVLT.

Fans of: Slayer, Destruction, Sodom, Dark Angel, Exodus, Overkill, Testament, Sacred Reich.
