Volcano Bass – 92%
That bass tone sounds like a rupturing volcano; Jens Becker is a beast. 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.. “Wild Animal,” 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 “Chains And Leather” from Branded And Exiled kicks ass, but this is what I’d call a perfect re-recording. 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.

“Störtebeker” has an authentic opener, adventurous riffs, and of course Rolf’s commanding voice at hand. To me, it’s the best song on the EP – you can’t top that wild solo! It’s totally epic about a privateer who could kick ass with the best of them, and the riffs back him up!


Wild Like a Fucking Animal! – 88%
Who said EP’s suck 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 delight. 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 12″ 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 chorus goes Tear Down the Walls, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, etc.

Störtebeker- 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 definitely pick it up. You can’t really go wrong with any Running Wild album.
