It's no surprise that
Running Wild hasn't bothered to update their sound, but
Black Hand Inn is a new low.
Black Hand Inn doesn't contain any catchy riffs at all, and the songs are just replicas of each other. Usually
Running Wild has compensated for this by including one or two stand-out tracks (usually one of them is the title track itself), but, unfortunately,
Black Hand Inn is a complete failure. Fans of
Running Wild might find it amusing, but it seems that
Running Wild doesn't have anything to offer to the heavy metal audience anymore. ~ Antti J. Ravelin
