Besides catapulting the band into the German album chart once again (this time at no. 35), RIOT (V) could even enter the Swiss (#23) and Austrian (#59) sales chart, marking their very first entries in both countries.

“Mean Streets” was recorded by Bruno Ravel in New Jersey. Ravel also mixed the album while Bart Gabriel took care of its mastering. Artwork was provided by Gyula Havancsák (ACCEPT, STRATOVARIUS, BRAINSTORM etc.) who captured the galloping style of the new material skillfully – without missing the band’s typical seal style, of course.
