It’s been three years since Running Wild wowed their fans with their (still) current album 'Rapid Foray'. Three years in which a lot of water has passed under the Metal galleys of time and the fans’ requests for new songs have become more and more vociferous. To ease the wait so that his supporters won’t have to hold out until early Summer 2020, Running Wild vocalist and guitarist Rock 'n' Rolf Kasparek came up with a real masterstroke last Friday on Saint Nicholas Day – the band, also featuring Peter Jordan – guitars, Ole Hempelmann - bass and Michael Wolpers – drums, had a special little gift for their fans and released their EP 'Crossing The Blades' on Steamhammer/SPV, featuring four brand-new tracks, including an exciting cover of the Kiss classic, ‘Strutter’.
