Running Wild - New EP In December, Album Coming In 2020


It's been three years since Running Wild's latest album Rapid Foray. To ease the wait so that his supporters won't have to hold out until early summer 2020, Running Wild captain Rock´n'Rolf has announced the release of the EP Crossing The Blades, on December 6th through SPV/Steamhammer. It will feature four brand-new tracks, including a cover of the Kiss classic, "Strutter".

First of all, the focus is on the EP's opener, "Crossing The Blades". What's so special about this song is the fact that it's a harbinger of the next regular album, scheduled for release in summer, but will remain unique in its present incarnation. Because, explains Kasparek: "This version will only be available on the Crossing The Blades EP. The album will feature a different version, completely re-recorded and with a number of little changes." The EP's second track is called "Stargazed" and should be familiar to a lot of Wacken attendees, after all Running Wild had presented the song exclusively at the 2018 W:O.A, to an enthusiastic response. Number three is the Kiss cover "Strutter", it is a homage to Rolf's first idols, of course in typical Running Wild style and with a little more steam than the original. Last but not least: The new EP closes with "Ride On The Wild Side", which - thanks to its powerful pace and high compositional quality - would almost have made the shortlist for the upcoming album.

Pre-orders are available here.





Tracklisting:
1. Crossing The Blades 5:25
2. Stargazed 3:40
3. Strutter 3:05
4. Ride On The Wild Side 4:05

A real drummer. I believe it's the same guy who was on the last album, Micheal something
