"Black Hand Inn" Lyrics Running Wild A scarred and rakish seadog, mysterious opacity Walks the grove, the phantom's home Cuts down firs where men would flee Wooden beams and mortar, the timber shack is taking shape The tavern's baptized "Black Hand Inn" A blackened hand shines on the plate Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The tavern has been opened, the owner is Mr John Xenir A rumor says he has second sight A chance to prove restrains their fear Night by night revealing, stares into his crystal-ball Telling tales of past and future When man was made and man will fall Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The moon is rising high foreboding what the night will bring The crystal-ball reveals the hidden truth at the "Black Hand Inn" The priest is getting furious from the "godless" tales he told Steps right in made a cross Condemns the seadog and says he's bold John says "you're a liar! Long ago I was burned by priests See my black hand, yes I'll reveal That you're the devil and you're the beast!" Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The moon is rising high foreboding what the night will bring The crystal ball reveals the hidden truth at the "Black Hand Inn" Welcome to the tavern in the grove Where ancient spirits live and rove The moon is rising high foreboding what the night will bring The crystal ball reveals the hidden truth at the "Black Hand Inn" Their power's built by lies and flying high on evil's wing The dark side was exposed by the old seadog at the "Black Hand I
I have tried for 6 years to find any band who has released better albums than Running Wild over the years, i fail every year. This is the best band in the world
@@NorthgateLP Good bands and albums, but few bands release so MANY good albums over their career....Running Wild is in Saxon territory with their (erhem...his) consistency.
True about Running Wild, less so with Saxon IMO. Running Wild is definitely the most consistently good band but I think Virgin Steele have the higher peak performance.
Running Wild will be the best metal band forever! I love the intro I and I just love the album cover I mean the just look at the mysterious characters, the scenery, and the atmosphere of where they are, it just looks so adventurous. Rock n' Rolf sure has a creative imagination! I want to visit the Black Hand Inn! lol
You know what I really like about RW? Most of their songs(if not all) have awesome intros, just about all thier songs are lengthy, probably all their songs have awesome guitar solos in the middle of them, and the fact that they can produce melodic songs like The Ballad of William Kidd and others from the Rivalry Album and still have hard-hitting metal songs! Running Wild Forever!!
Black Hand Inn ist ddas geilste Album ever, ich höre das teil immer noch fast täglich! Running Wild Rulez ! Die hätt ich liebend gerne mit dem Album Live erlebt !
One of the best power metal albums. Running Will dream team: Rolf Kasparek (vocals and guitar), Thilo Hermann (guitars), Thomas Smuszynski (bass guitar), Jörg Michael (drums) - Black Hand Inn (1994), Masquerade (1995), The Rivalry (1998).
I never knew Running Wild was a Pirate Metal band! I know my Bro had this CD, but he never told me about them being Pirate metal But, after I listened to this CD, Iove'em to Pieces! ^_^ Go Running Wild!!!
A Jewel. I think the thing is that Running Wild are so cool and their music is so damn good that it can attract people who don't listen to metal usually. They certainly did that for me. Legends these guys. Plus I love their awesome German accents.1000/10
Pennywise RT Ne ne, noch sehr viel andere Scheiben du musst sie nur paar mal anhören. Helloween ist eine Hammer Band Live und Scheibe. Und Andi Deris ist auch ein klasse Sänger.
That little story in the beginning is the stuff that makes concept/theme metal so great. No matter how corny it is, you never really know if the band actually take them selves seriously :D
Pennywise RT Stimmt, besser gesagt mit Rolf. Running Wild war ja nie wirklich ne Band. Eher ne Söldnertruppe angeführt von Rolf Kasparek. Trotzdem war es damals unglaublich, ihn zu treffen. Sein großer Bruder Jörg war n Schulfreund meines Vaters
smashing! i can't wait to get my hands on all of them. i just bought black hand inn and right now im listening to dancing on the minefield. the riff is so kickass! the drummer is so good too.
Both are Power metal the difference thats is the Next. Running Wild is Power with NWOBHM influences, Rhapsody have Symphonic influences and DragonForce practically have Videogames soundtrack Power Metal. But the final all is Power Metal simplymind not all sound to same
Running wild isn't power metal. Heavy is dominate in their songs. To figure it out just try to listen Running Wild conquistadors and Powerwolf cover Conquistadors - there you would see the difference between Heavy and power metal.
@seopeter22 Andreas Marschall, ge also designed the cover for Blind Guardian, Hammerfall and Grave Digger, he has a very destinctive style, you recognize his work out of thousands. Oh yes, he always writes his name hidden in the covers, chekc them out and you will find out it is his trademark. Excellent artist
The original version? Or the one with Dancing on a Minefield and Poisoned Blood? I just bought that version! I'm so excited! It's my favorite album of all time, without a doubt!
