CD ReviewsClassic Metal James B. Whitney | Minneapolis, MN. USA | 12/06/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "I have been a metal head for a long time. I remember Iron Maiden's first lp. I confess, I like epic, anthemic, well played songs with tons of lead guitar pyrotechnics and a vocalist who can actually sing. This is the old school metal which inspired me so many years ago and it is that very metal, today called power metal, which Running Wild delivers on Port Royal. This disc is a remastered version of an album released originally in, I think, 1988. No silly "I'm so eeevuul" growling. A guitarist not afraid to shred. As one may surmise, there are lots of songs about pirates but this seema to me to be a metaphore for the love of freedom and it never gets cheesy. No songs about self pity and being broken as in so many nu metal/grunge/hardcore trying to pass for metal garbage for sale at the local music store these days. These guys are the real deal. If you like true metal buy this now." No#1!!! dave mustaine | 11/15/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is the best of them!Rock n'Rolf knew that the pirate image will make the band reach the top...Great music with power riffs and drums going like hell especially in tracks like "Into The Arena" And "Coinquistadores".I Dislike A bit Warchild which I think it's the worst song of the album but the whole cd it's a classy old school power metal!Worth your money..." The train starts moving in the right direction Paul Lawrence | Australia | 01/12/2006 (3 out of 5 stars) "OK, this isn't the full bore metal blast of Death or Glory but you can see things starting to really develop in that direction. Conquistadores and the title track itself show that the lads are starting to fire on more and more cylinders.
This is still a bit backward and it helps if your a devotee of Rock 'n' Rolf Kasparek, lead inspiration and vocalist of this mob. But even if your not you'll get decent slice of metal by picking up this, really an album that shows the band leading up to their peak." |
