As I sit here and listen to most likely the greatest band of all time I notice that there isn't a topic for them, so I decided to make one. Manowar are a band that you must love, and if you don't, you're gay. Haha, seriously though. They make some wicked music, though pompous, they deserve to be, I mean, they are the KINGS OF METAL. I do enjoy their upbeat attitude, killer riffing, and Eric Adams god like vocals. Very manly. I would call them Heavy Metal (or moreover, Traditional Metal) than anything, but they do have some Speed and Power Metal tendencies every now and then. Any fans?

And remember kids, while other bands play - Manowar kill.

YOYO, It's nice to know there is at least one person in this web who respects the band... Always that Manowar appears on a post it's called cheesy-power-gay-lame-metal or things like, things that dorks do -.-, I respect this band and I really like it, nowadays has lost a lot of it's power and as I said, even people don't respect them, but I don't give them the fuck, they have been a very important band in the history of metal.

Yeah, not to mention that they are better than all of the other bands out there, AND THEY KNOW IT. Indeed, I do enjoy their music. Good to know you do too, brother.

HAHA that's was hard!! They ain't better than much other bands that are here but... they are more talented than what the people thinks, they don't recieve all the respect they deserve, and this 20 years ago or so didn't happend, Manowar was considered as one of the most important metal band... it's a shame!!

Ah, the kings of metal. I'm a fan, of course! No one else kills while others bands play . Some of the things Manowar say can be a bit arrogant, but that's just a part of their image. It's cool haha!

I'm no huge fan of Manowar actually ..
Sure you can sing along and they have some cool material, but there are bands whom are far better than Manowar IMO...
Sonata Arctica or Sinergy for example

I'm a fan of course and I enjoy all of what I have heard. As for Manowar being arrogant... I'd definitely agree, as it is even expressed in some of the lyrical content of their songs, as well as their disriminant perspective, eg "If you like metal, you're my friend", but hell, don't we all like metal here?, especially Manowar for that concern?

Manowar are a great band although I haven't listened to them for a while. I listened to them a lot when I was first getting into metal and I think their lyricals alone was encouragement to check out more metal. I'd love to see them live, especially since they're the loudest band on Earth.

It's a shame about the attitude they seem to show towards their fans. I mean, they seem to be in love with metal so you'd think they'd love their fans too.

Hoho, Manowar, always a good topic for discussion.

I really like their music and their lyrics are imo very funny. But I still have a few problems with the band. First of all, someone spoke about respect and I really can't see what makes this band deserve any. There attitude sucks. Both towards the fans and in their music. Their liveshows really stinks since they never change a fucking thing. I have seen the band twice and it was a god damn replay. Joey DeMaio stands pretty much still, stomping on the ground in that ridicuosly masculin manner, during the whole concert. Unless they are shooting a video (for the 347'th time), then he sometimes comes to life when the camera is approaching. He's indeed both a wimp and a poser, and he can therefore leave the hall. And every freaking time he does that Manowar-speech in the end and every time he wastes good beer by pouring it over his face. Then we have the classic where he crashes his bass guitar and the one where he pulls up a random girl from the crowd... yawn! Joey DeMaio sucks!

But then again. I really like some stuff they've written and I am the first to sing along when a Manowar CD spins at a party. So I guess I am a wimp and a poser too, and therefore I'll now leave the hall

Used to listen to Manowar a lot, but then it started to bore me...to much of the same "we-are-oh-so-macho"...I'll probably get in to them again after a while

I'm gonna say one thing and one thing only too...little bitches like Noel Gallagher from Oasis should not say anything about bands like Manowar if they know what's good for them...for those of you who don't know, there was a thread about it on the old MS about how Noel said that Manowar was just noise and he then proclaimed that Oasis was the loudest band...I think we should put the members of Manowar and the members of Oasis in a death match and watch Eric Adams tear Noel's faggy little head to shreads...
