Renewal (album)

Renewal is the sixth album by German thrash metal band Kreator released in 1992. It's their first "experimental" album, as in this release Kreator incorporated some industrial music influences in their songwriting.[1] It is also the last album to feature original bassist Rob Fioretti. The song "Karmic Wheel" contains audio samples from the suicide of R. Budd Dwyer.[2] A music video was made for the title track.

gollark: Nope. Bitcoins are mined on ASICs.
gollark: Some offense, but it's not like it takes much knowledge and thought about AI to go "hmm, what if hyperadvanced self-learning AI thing". If it was that easy, people would already have done it and probably taken over the world.
gollark: Basically, your simple English description of what you want implicitly assumes a bunch of human knowledge - *specialized expert* human knowledge, even - which would require vast amounts of difficult development to get in an AI.
gollark: Oh, and if it's a paper it might not even come with code or it might be really awful code, yes.
gollark: The code/paper you find isn't going to be conveniently usable by just downloading it and copypasting it into your AI's code or something. You'll probably have to actually understand how it works, yet another unfathomable general intelligence task, figure out how it interfaces with the rest of the code or if it can even be used together at all, and possibly rewrite it entirely to fit with what you need.
