After the classic “Death Or Glory”, Running Wild decided to speed things up without sacrificing the melody of their two previous albums. The result was 1991’s “Blazon Stone”.

It became their best-selling album to date, probably due to the critical success of “Port Royal” and “Death Or Glory”. It is less consistent than its predecessors, due to a couple of normal tracks, but its strongest ones are better than the ones on the albums mentioned, and the production is superior too, which boosts the listening experience.

The album starts with the bands best opening song, and an instant classic “Blazon Stone.” The guitar melody heard throughout the song is very catchy and great sounding. Probably the best song on the album is “Little Big Horn”, a mixture of catchiness, speed, melody, hooks, and sing along lyrics.

Running Wild 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 is no exception. Few in metal history have delivered so many powerful albums across nearly a decade, a legacy that still commands respect.
