Running Wild is a German heavy metal band, formed in 1976 in Hamburg, Germany. We discuss their accomplishments and finalize the Slap-A-Ham tournament as well.
We are nearing the end of the Slap A Ham tournament and there are some pretty wild upsets here. We go through the final 16 and then final 8 match ups.
We are joined by two friends of ours, Kevin aka Chainsaw and Chris Quitaldi. We go through the 32 releases that moved on from the first round to get to the final 16 releases. Who will move on? Will there be anymore upsets?

The first annual Kings of Punk March Madness is upon us and we are diving in deep with the discography of the legendary label Slap-A-Ham-Records. Founded by Chris Dodge of Spazz fame (among a few dozen other bands he has done), Slap-A-Ham Records chronicled a sonically diverse scene of extreme and ambitious bands within the hardcore underground not only in California, but around the world. This episode we go through the first 16 match ups (32 releases in total). Every release was chosen randomly...
Seriously folks, they go fast and then they go slow. Or they go slow and THEN they go fast. Just pick one!
