Climbin' the Walls


Climbin' the Walls is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Wrathchild America, released in 1989 by Atlantic Records. Although the album was recorded in May 1988, its release was delayed for a whole year, due to both label and legal issues that resulted in the band changing their name from Wrathchild to Wrathchild America, in order to avoid confusion with the British band with the same name.
Climbin' the Walls was moderately successful, becoming the band's only album to chart on the Billboard 200, where it peaked at number 190. A music video for the song "Climbin' the Walls" was released to promote the album.

Reception

Climbin' the Walls received generally positive reviews. Eduardo Rivadavia from AllMusic only gave the album a score of two stars out of five but noted the "speedy, muscular riffs, complex time changes, and superb drumming."
