Mille petrozza signature guitar

Mille Petrozza is the backbone of German thrash metal exponents Kreator, who have been creating their very own brand of noise since Currently on their "Hell Comes to Your Town" tour to promote their new album, " Violent Revolution ," you'd think Mille would be a guy you wouldn't want to meet in a dark alley late at night, right? This hometown boy, who has never moved from the town in which he was raised, wants nothing more than an easy life and sleeps soundly in his bed every night, never dreaming of the nightmarish scenarios he writes and sings about.

We caught up with Mille mid-tour for a quick conversation about this apparent contentment, the real reason for playing Colombia and what the future holds for the war-horse that is Kreator Rough Edge: Hi, Mille, how are you doing? How's everything going so far? Mille Petrozza: Very good.

Most of the shows are packed and it's a very good tour. Rough Edge: Why did it take you so long to come back and tour the U. Mille Petrozza: We had problems with the record companies. Typical bullshit - the distribution wasn't there and you know, it's always hard for a band from Europe to have control over all these things, like on the business side of things and it wasn't in our hands.

We wanted to come but for business reasons it just didn't happen. We needed the support of a record company. Now with Sledgehammer their new record company they give us that support.
