The debut full-length studio album by cult German Power Metal band.
The band's arsenal of catchy, Gothic Power Metal creates an immediate distinction from the fleet of Rhapsody and Helloween clones that were assailing the continent. You won't hear a sped-up Gamma Ray or Dragonforce here, or a soulless interpretation of Stratovarius, but an entirely different beast that balances Deep Purple, 80's Sabbath, and Alice Cooper with the cult sounds of NWOBHM bands.
This is an enjoyable effort, with a few tracks lagging behind the rest of the band's career. The mix is wholesome, and you truly get a shiver as if you're listening to the entire album in a cathedral with high vaulted ceilings, while the full moon and all its terrors lurk just outside the sanctity of the pulpit and crucifix...

POWERWOLF “Blood Of The Saints” /Ltd. Deluxe GLP + Poster/
The 10th Anniversary Edition re-release of the fourth full-length studio album by cult German Power Metal band.
Considered by many as the best album in the band's career, "Blood Of The Saints" has been out of stock for a while, so the time is right for a vinyl re-issue!
The ripping guitars, the battering drum work, and the nightmarish keys work in such great conjecture that one could feel his spirit grow cold with fear as song after song threatens eternal darkness and quenchless bloodthirst upon it. It’s for the ravenous wolf of the night in all of us, and those sacrilegious hymns are augmented all the more with Mr. Attila Dorn’s unbeatable singing. His unholy howling works wonders with his band of merry lupine demons, as tracks like “Sanctified with Dynamite”, “All We Need is Blood”, and “Die, Die, Crucified” can attest to.
In addition to recording at Studio Fredman, Sweden, the band recorded some parts of the album in the 12th-century Deutschherrenkapelle chapel, Saarbrücken.
The album reached position number 23 in the German charts and 75 in the Swiss charts. The album won the Metal Hammer's "Power Metal album of the year" award.
“Blood Of The Saints” is another reminder of Powerwolf’s awesome appeal and is your next addiction!
