This is not only my favourite Running Wild record ever, but also my heavy/power metal album No. 1. Those riffs and melodies make me want to jump out of my skin.

Ahoi! A great Running Wild album. This is the most melodic one, I think. The eponymous song is mindblowing.

Written by Yugosaki on 18.02.2011 at 17:51 Agree. Written by Guest on 29.04.2013 at 20:03 Great song, though the lyrics seem nonsense to me  Written by NocturnalStalker on 13.12.2014 at 17:49 Definitely a strong candidate as one of the best heavy metal albums ever! Rolf made amazing job on these compositions. Written by Infernal Eternal on 03.01.2015 at 17:43 One of the most melodic but one of the heaviest as well. IMO both of these "Black Hand" songs are magnificent, but then again, most of this album is

A bit changes, no historic, pyratic themas, known lyrical concept bases as they did, but musically I like, small changes but its RW,

This is imo the best by RW, and one of the best in heavy metal, RW were on top form here and delivered some of the best quality riffs in heavy metal history, and the last song was an epic masterpiece. I see this album as their ultimate peak, some of the albums that followed were good but were never going to match this classic. I see this album the same way as I see Powerslave by IM.

What a fantastically fun adventure! I love the catchy melodies and fast guitar-work! While there are many great songs here ("Soulless", "Privateer", "Freewind Rider", "Genesis"), my favorite still stays "Black Hand Inn" (the title track) - sooo damn catchy!

Written by JC Steele on 08.06.2016 at 13:23 the lyrics are about a religion inveted by some writer. Rolf got inspired by it and felt it would be an interesting thing to sing about
