A good RW album, but a bit out of character........2004-05-04

Blazon Stone was a slight departure for Running Wild as it contained a few more commercially appealing songs like "Lonewolf" and seemed to drop the overall pirate theme they had going. However, musically it still maintains Rolf's signature style of galloping rhythyms and epic leads mixed with aggressive vocals. This is a good addition to anyone's RW library, but it isn't their best. Try Black Hand Inn or Pile of Skulls if you're looking for better albums to start your collection.

Aaarrgghhh! Get ready for boarding- the finest Pirate Metal.......2002-11-23

Mateys, I be no pirate myself. But after hearing Blazon Stone and subsequent Running Wild releases, I just wanted to grab me cutlass, eyepatch, and talking parrot and go on a swashbuckling adventure! One can taste the salty sea air, feel the convulsions of a wooden ship deck in high waves, and relish the plunder of gold and booty by simply spinning this CD! Very imaginative, descriptive lyrics, rocket drumming, blazing guitar riffs, and searing vocals make Blazon Stone a must-have metal album. You must own this album, no doubt! These guys are for real! I'm surprised that they aren't HUGE. Maybe over in Europe? Riff after glorious riff, song after memorable song, Running Wild won me over the moment they first boarded my CD player. Soccer-holler choruses! Pirate Metal! I hope they come to the US, specifically Hartford, Connecticut to pillage and lay waste to a land that has spawned some of THE WORST music (metal and non-metal) in decades! Let me put it to you in a simple equation: YOUR LIFE-RUNNING WILD= COMPLETE AND UTTER DISGRACE.
Pieces of eight! Pieces of eight! AAAARRRGGGGHHHH!-- David Newman

One of the best.......2000-01-24

This is one of the best CDs in heavy and speed metal genre to date. I've listened tens of albums from bands like Blind Guardian, Rhapsody, Stratovarius, Angra, Iron Maiden, Dream Theater and i must confes this one is on the top of the iceberg! Ok, not really the BEST of all, but it stands pretty high... I have four albums from Running Wild allready and this is the best one... there is no poor track on this release. My favourites are "Little Big Horn" , "White Masque" .. "Lonewolf" oh yes! great! this is a "must" for true RW fan...
