Running Wild is one of the oldest metal bands who are still
alive today and they are in my book one of the absolute best that have ever
been alive. Unfortunately they seem to be on their way down from the top by
now since this new album is by far the worst that they have done so far. They
recycle old standard riffs, the vocals are mostly uninspiring and the drumming
is as machine-like and monotonous as you might imagine from having "Angelo
Sasso" in the band. Rolf Kasparek is doing his best to keep the old pirate
spirit alive but it appears as if he has lost the will and energy to continue
pushing forward. The only song that makes you remember the good old days is
the very fine closing track "The Ghost" which is also luckily the longest
one on the album. The album is far from being a bad one but this is hopefully
not what most people will remember Running Wild for. They have meant a lot to
the world of metal and without them this world would not have been the same.
We thank you Rolf for what you have done before but perhaps the sad truth is
that this will mark the end of an
era.
