Marching Out is the second studio album by guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen, released on 19 August 1985 through Polydor Records.<ref name="FMQB" /> The album reached No. 52 on the U.S. Billboard 200 and remained on that chart for 28 weeks, <ref name=billboard>[[[:Template:BillboardURLbyName]] "Yngwie Malmsteen - Chart history"]. Billboard. Retrieved 2014-12-24.</ref> as well as reaching the top 30 in two other countries.<ref name=finnishcharts>"Yngwie J. Malmsteen's Rising Force - Marching Out (album)". finnishcharts.com.

This was the second Malmsteen album to feature Jeff Scott Soto on lead vocals. After this album, Soto did not reappear as lead vocalist until the 1996 album Inspiration.

"On the Run Again" is a remake of "Victim of the City", a song written in 1983 by Malmsteen's earlier band Steeler, which was later released on their 2005 compilation album Metal Generation: The Steeler Anthology.

Critical reception

Template:Album reviews Steve Huey at AllMusic gave Marching Out 3.5 stars out of five, calling it a "worthwhile listen" but being somewhat critical of Malmsteen's lyrics and the songs' fantasy-oriented subject matter. Malmsteen's guitar work was described as "slightly more raw and aggressive" than his 1984 debut album Rising Force.<ref name=allmusic/>
