Vinyl re-issue in orange-black wax with poster of the Debut album from 1984 by this legendary German Heavy Metal band, widely regarded as one of the pioneers of German Metal and affectionately known by its fans as "The Masters of Black Romantic". Released during the rise of European Heavy Metal, "Walpurgis Night" laid the foundations for the band's unique identity, built around fantasy, occult and medieval-inspired themes.
Its sound blends traditional Heavy Metal with strong NWOBHM influences, featuring sharp twin-guitar harmonies, epic melodies and a dark, mysterious atmosphere that was unusual for its time. More raw and straightforward than the band's later releases, the album perfectly captures the spirit of mid-'80s European Metal and remains one of the true cult classics of the German scene.
