Gates to Purgatory is the debut studio album by German heavy metal band Running Wild, released in 1984. It predates their piracy themes and has mostly satanicallyinfluenced lyrics but also features songs with anarchic and libertarian in the sense of European libertarianism themes. It was in part of Gerald Preacher Warneckes studies in theology. He left the band soon after the albums release to become a priest. This special yellow vinyl version is limited edition.
