My 1st running wild cd. I give it a 10. its perfect in every way. truly a great album. though man on the moon sounds lik grinder by judas priest and another 80s metal song I cant recall the name of . if your a running wild fan and this is missing from your collection or missing from your metal collection def. pick this 1 up.

Alas, this is the last REALLY GOOD album by RW. I gotta say I miss these faster kind of tracks on their later albums. IMO this could actually be one of the best RW albums if it wasn't so lengthy. The material for a classic album is there, the album is over 68 minutes and with a little bit of cropping on the weaker tracks this album would be definitely in the top5 of RW discography. Without further ado I will be leaving to headbang to "The Rivalry" "Ballad Of William Kidd" "Adventure Galley", but I'll be back to listening to this amazing album in the future.

Before, I was never very familiar with much of Running Wild's recent material, only their old school/classic albums. I have the understanding that it's a popular notion that 'Masquerade' ('95) and onward is where the band supposedly started to lose their edge........Well, I've now listened to all of their 90s albums and I don't hear any such decline, it's the same kick ass band who's music puts me in a better mood!

This is the awesome shit I expect to hear when I listen to Running Wild! This is a good album, ideally, I'd give it like an 8.5 (I hesitate to give out 9's and 10's).
