There seem to be variations of the inner sleeve besides the described one with the blank back! mine has arc cut upper corners and some different record ads on the back! will upload pic!

Still one of the best mid-80s metal albums. The members were still "teenagers" in 1985, imagine! Album also features some really great (1st wave) black metal tracks (obviously heavily inspired by Bathory). 10/10

The BEST Kreator album! Pleasure to Kill can be only No.2, but it's a close call. All the following albums turned somewhat 'mild' or 'nice' today over the decades (at least for me). The 1st two still CRUSH & feel as 'matured' albums that will NEVER turn 'nice' (or silly, or naive, etc). Has happened to ALL the bands over the decades, more or less, not just Kreator. Some albums turn mild, the other survive. That's how it is. The years passed show the Winner at the end. Endless Pain aged well - like wine.

My copy has only a generic inner sleeve with the Noise merch catalogue. No band photo with thank you list and credits on the back, just plain white.

My copy has a different printed inner sleeve with more albums advertised on the back ('To Mega Therion', 'Walls Of Jericho', and 2 others). Is mine a later release of this pressing, and a different pressing all together?

Anyone else have a copy that has the A side label off center? Mine plays great otherwise, but the center label is pressed off center with part of the runout groove pressed into the label?
