Pleasure to Kill, released in 1986, is the second album from the band Kreator. This was the album where Kreator cemented themselves as a solid band in the thrash metal underground. Kreator's lyrical themes follow those found on their first album Endless Pain. Many death metal bands cite this album as an influence, and it is also considered a landmark album in the history of thrash metal for its brutal sound along with Reign in Blood (Slayer) and Darkness Descends (Dark Angel), all of which were released in 1986.
