Heavy metal outfit Running Wild <\/strong>have announced the re-issue of their two classic albums Death Or Glory <\/em>and Blazon Stone <\/em>on very limited picture disc vinyl via Hammerheart Record<\/strong>s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pre-orders are now available here: https:\/\/hammerheart.lnk.to\/runningwildreissues<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Death Or Glory<\/em> (1989) is the pinnacle of Running Wild<\/strong>\u2019s career and one of the best heavy\/power\/speed metal albums ever made. The vocals, lyricism, drums and guitar\/bass playing here have no equal in their later or earlier efforts. It’s a passionate and epic project of legendary proportions, one of such albums that can be correctly labeled a \u201cclassic\u201d. Death or Glory<\/em> is seminal heavy metal, and a war cry against the oncoming hordes of emerging death metal bands. Classic metal songwriting will always have a place in metal regardless of current trends and developing styles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the classic Death Or Glory<\/em>, Running Wild<\/strong> decided to speed things up without sacrificing the melody of their previous albums. The result was 1991\u2019s Blazon Stone<\/strong>. It became their best-selling album to date, due to the critical success of Port Royal<\/em> and Death Or Glory<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Running Wild <\/strong>rarely gets the recognition it deserves. What began as a band has become a focused force still burning with the spirit of its prime. Many creators change over time, and Running Wild<\/strong> is no exception. Few in metal history have delivered so many powerful albums across nearly a decade, a legacy that still commands respect.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
