Description

Double album on clear vinyls with gatefold cover, printed innersleeve and the complete album on cd as bonus

Adrian, the band’s mascot, in his brave battle against the forces of nature – the cover of the 2013 Running Wild album Resilient documents emphatically: this band really is irrepressible. Their current studio production sees the metal galley from Northern Germany sail close to the metal wind again, tougher and more determined than ever. Captain Rock n Rolf has come up with twelve storm-proof numbers. The most outstanding song on the album, however, is called Bloody Island, with almost ten minutes playing time one of the longest tracks in Running Wild’s career to date. In terms of lyrics, there are the familiar fusillades that we’ve come to expect from Running Wild: Bloody Island and the bonus track Payola And Shenanigans see Rolf criticise the curse of greed that we’ve seen specifically in the European banking crisis of recent years. There can be no doubt: Running Wild will proudly sail the pirate flag in the 38th year of their existence, effortlessly sailing through the straits of the business.
