One of the best releases from Running Wild during the 90's. The digipak version is pretty well done. Recommended.

Running Wild continued their "Pirate Metal" theme on this 8th studio album and as always, they do not disappoint! Songs like Soulless, Freewind Rider, Genesis continue the tradition of well crafted German heavy metal songs that can still stand the test of time.

Best after Port Royal album of this group. To be honest, I can only listen to these two albums and even Death or Glory, everything else is total and not very interesting for listening, self-plagiarism, worthy of the lowest ratings. Immediately - all at the highest level: enough hits, almost no settling; captivating with its "belligerence" "pirate" lyrics, a couple of memorable moments, a good picture on the cover. The best songs are "Fight the Fire of Hate", "The Phantom of Black Hand Inn", and of course the 15-minute suite "Genesis".
