Hehehehe, glad to see you're giving Running Wild another chance J.D.!
About my suggestion for RITUAL, please don't take it as an order, didn't mean for it to sound like it. Re Bethe's guitar style takes a while to sink in, at first his licks and solos sound a bit confused, but once you've listened to the albums a few times, you start to understand where he's going.
I've been listening to this more and more, lately:
BATHORY TWILIGHT OF THE GODS 1991
This is the perfect Viking era Bathory album. Its is grandiose in its atmosphere, simply jaw-dropping. So if you like more epic sounding themes in music, here's a perfect treat for you!
The only thing against it is Quorthon's voice, even though it is clean, he still hadn't quite learned how to control it yet. I like it but it might be a detractor if you don't like less-than-perfect vocals. [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by J.D. DIAMOND from Friday, April 24, 2009 3:53:11 AM)

RUNNING WILD BLAZON STONE 1991
Actually,I just heard this album for the first time last week and the majority of it is pretty good for heavy metal at least in my opinion that is.A couple of songs I don't care for but the majority of it I do like.
Not saying all of you would like this,but it reminds me alittle bit of "Saxon" at times with alittle bit of old Iron Maiden thrown in there.
