I mean, damn, I noticed it before the raging █ █ █ █ drum artillery and the guitar shark-attack! You can hear █ █ █ █ the bass curling and spitting out pools of lava every █ █ █ █ second, giving the EP a dirty, merciless tone already. █ █ █ █ Production is just as clear and crisp as Death Or Glory, █ █ █ █ and the drop in atmosphere isnÆt that great like it was █ █ █ █ with the Little Big Horn EP for Blazon Stone. ôWild █ █ █ █ Animal,ö as much as I think of W.A.S.P., is a crazy track █ █ █ █ with a strong rhythm, particularly with the slicing riffs █ █ █ █ and that consistent drum battering. Rolf himself I can █ █ █ █ picture running around Port Royal like a wolf in boots just █ █ █ █ jumping around feasting on people and pineapples. █ █ █ █ The original ôChains And Leatherö from Branded And Exiled █ █ █ █ kicks ass, but this isnÆt what IÆd call a perfect █ █ █ █ re-recording. It seems very rushed compared to the █ █ █ █ original, which is the saddest bit. Even if you havenÆt █ █ █ █ heard the original, this version seems way too fast for a █ █ █ █ mid-paced song. Rolf rushes through his lines, but the █ █ █ █ instruments just go along with it. Thanks to the beefed up █ █ █ █ production akin to Death Or Glory, the tone is incredibly █ █ █ █ majestic and grand, with riffs knocking down walls and a █ █ █ █ solo like a dispatched firework. The song is the same █ █ █ █ length as the original, but with this changed formula it █ █ █ █ sort of drags on. █ █ █ █ ôTear Down The Wallsö doesnÆt offer much at all, especially █ █ █ █ after ôChains And Leatherö rushing to get the job done. The █ █ █ █ energy isnÆt there, even in Rolf who just kind of yells his █ █ █ █ lines rather than pouring all his energy into them. ItÆs a █ █ █ █ dull song that passes you by without leaving anything to █ █ █ █ grasp. ôSt÷rtebekerö (and the others) got tagged on to the █ █ █ █ remastered version of Death Or Glory - with that authentic █ █ █ █ opener, those blaring, adventurous riffs, and RolfÆs █ █ █ █ commanding voice at hand, theyÆd be dumb as shit leaving █ █ █ █ this particular song off forever. To me, itÆs the best song █ █ █ █ on the EP û you canÆt top that wild solo! ItÆs such a short █ █ █ █ epic about a privateer who could kick ass with the best of █ █ █ █ them, and the riffs back him up! █ █ █ █ While technically half and half, this EP is still pretty █ █ █ █ enjoyable all around. YouÆll love the first and last songs, █ █ █ █ for sure, but the other two are up for grabs. Now if Rolf █ █ █ █ can just re-release the remastered Death Or Glory album (as █ █ █ █ well as all his other albums) properly, then weÆll all be █ █ █ █ able to enjoy this on a nice CD format (vinyl if he cared, █ █ █ █ even though I sure donÆt). █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ --- █ █ █ █ █ █ █ █ Who said EP's sucked goat balls!? This one is actually █ █ █ █ worth hunting down and getting! Since there is only four █ █ █ █ songs, I'll tell something about everyone! █ █ █ █ Wild Animal- This song has a cool intro riff. But besides █ █ █ █ that nothing else is to special about this song. The lyrics █ █ █ █ are kinda cool, but then all songs about pirates or ships █ █ █ █ are pretty cool. The vocals are kinda weak on this song, █ █ █ █ straight out, they really don't grap a hold of the listener █ █ █ █ like on the other songs. For all this negative stuff, the █ █ █ █ solo brings you back to its greatness! █ █ █ █ Chains and Leather 90- Okay this song is the best one on █ █ █ █ here! Everything about this song kicks ass! The main riff █ █ █ █ is filled with headbanging delite. The lyrics are probably █ █ █ █ the coolest though. "We are right praying metal tonight █ █ █ █ the message from hell and its spell. Even Satan wears █ █ █ █ leather, our souls to it forever so let us pray our rules █ █ █ █ tonight" This album is worth getting primarily for this █ █ █ █ song alone. █ █ █ █ Tear Down the Walls- This song is pretty cool because it █ █ █ █ goes slow then fast and then stays rather fast! The riff █ █ █ █ for the chorus is well concepted, however the lyrics are █ █ █ █ kinda of lame with this weird voice noise before the █ █ █ █ chorus. By the way the chrous goes Tear Down the Walls, █ █ █ █ Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, etc. Overll all okay song, but not █ █ █ █ the best. █ █ █ █ St÷rtebeker- The lyrics for this song are fucking awesome, █ █ █ █ and the riffs are awesome as well. The riffs sound a lot █ █ █ █ like Iron Maiden (Killers) style, while the solo sounds a █ █ █ █ lot like Iron Maiden (Somewhere in Time) style. It is a █ █ █ █ pretty fast song to! This is another reason why this EP is █ █ █ █ pretty good █ █ █ █ Overall this album slays the mighty. Great riffs, great █ █ █ █ solos, great songs with good lyrics. Everything is good, █ █ █ █ except for the production, it can be kinda choppy █ █ █ █ sometimes. But if you find this in vinyl or cd definetly █ █ █ █ pick it up. You can't really go wrong with any Running Wild █ █ █ █ album. █ █ █ █ █ █ █░█ █░█ █ █ 1. Wild Animal 4:13 █ █ █ █ 2. Chains & Leather 5:46 █ █ █ █ 3. Tear Down the Walls 4:17 █ █ █ █ 4.
