Aaarrgghhh! Get ready for boarding- the finest Pirate Metal

Review Score: (10/10)
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
