Kreator were joined onstage on German TV on Tuesday night by Ghost leader Papa Emeritus for a performance of Satan Is Real.
They appeared on late-night show Circus HalliGalli to play the track from Kreator’s latest album Gods Of Violence, with Drangsal’s frontman Max Gruber also joining them.
Kreator vocalist and guitarist Mille Petrozza says: “It was an absolute honour and a lot of fun to have such amazing artists as Max Gruber and Papa as guests on Satan Is Real.
“We will never forget this night of diabolic love!”
