In a new interview with Tori Kravitz of Knotfest, KREATOR frontman Mille Petrozza was asked to name his "top five favorite heavy tracks".
He replied: "I would go for something by JUDAS PRIEST, for example 'Electric Eye'.
IRON MAIDEN, I would choose the song 'Killers'.
Something by CELTIC FROST, 'Circle Of The Tyrants'.
It's all old school so far.
Maybe something really heavy, like something by METALLICA.
I would have to put 'Blackened' by METALLICA.
That's one of my favorite riffs ever.", He continued: "The ultimate heavy metal song must have been something by...
It's so cliché, but it probably needs to be something by BLACK SABBATH.
I would go for 'Symptom Of The Universe'.
It's not the obvious choice — everybody would go, like, 'Paranoid' or whatever — but I think 'Symptom Of The Universe' has this amazing riff.", Mille added: "It's almost impossible to [choose only five songs].
I love all kinds of heavy metal, and I love all kinds...
I like the newer stuff.
I like the older stuff.
But I had to pick five, and obviously those are classic songs."
