There is no doubt that the German pirates dissapointed us the last years with their releases and especially "Shadowmaker" , witch in my opinion is the weakest album they ever released , but this time they are back ready to wreck our neck again ! "Resilient" is "Rock n' Rolf's" fifteenth Running Wild album .
Well , starting from the artwork , i couldn't say it's the best they could do , but I would recomend not to be affected by that before listening to the music , although i believe that a band like Running Wild must pay more attention to the artwork .
"Resilient" is a classic Running Wild album , just like it should be . Full of heavy Riffs , catchy singalong chorus and pounding drums .
The first song "Soldiers of fortune" is a great opener and gets us straight on to the action , followed by "Resilient" , a song with a rockier feeling and lower tempo . "Adventure highway " is next , with a very powerfull opening riff , and the album goes on with some awesome tracks like "The Drift" and "Fireheart" which is my personal favourite . "Down to the wire" is also a nice tune , but kind of missmatched with the rest of the album in my opinion .
The album closes with a 10 minute metal anthem , "Bloody island" , a proper ending for a great album like "Resilent" .
Overall "Resilient" is a very good album , and i would recommend it to any fan of Running Wild , even the ones who got dissapointed by them the last years !
