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.

God, you know what song is criminally underrated? "Courage". Sure, it's one step away from being a Céline Dion song, but by god does it kick ass.

Totally agree, I love that song, and no one ever mension that song anywhere
It is little, strange but it is great, melodic AND powerful song, full of adrenalin, at least for me...

I remember singing that song when I was waiting in line for Guns N Roses, my friend had it on his cell phone and put it on speaker phone and it started off just me and him singing, then before you knew it there were like 30 metalheads in line all singing along, it was sweet.

It was pretty funny, a few weeks ago when Arcturus played in Brisbane, Hyvaarin and I were most satisfied even before the show started, because one of the last songs that was played prior to anyone coming on stage was the almighty 'Battle Hymn'. Needless to say, we sang every word! I swear Arcturus could have played like shit and I would have still though the show to be worth it, just for that one singing experience!

I disagree, Gods Of War was Ok, but they threw FAR too many interludes & spoken word tracks it makes the album a little tedious to listen to all the way through.

The actual songs on 'Gods of War' are fucking good, but the problem is that there are only like 5 of the damn things. It's something like 30min of songs, 40min of orchestral stuff and shitty narration.

I bought 'Sign of the Hammer' a few weeks ago, for $10 too, bloody awesome bargain. 'All Men Play on 10' is totally just a rap song that they adapted into a Metal style. 'Animals' is hilarious (à la 'Pleasure Slave'). The rest of the songs are great too, with the exception of 'Thunderpick', which is the traditional DeMaio wankfest. Still, a great buy!

Yeah and they even ruined an otherwise great track like 'King Of Kings' by stopping and putting a spoken word part in the middle, at which point I hit the skip button every time.

Actually that is why I wrote that it is different album. King Of Kings is great song, and I don't mined that part
altough it would be better without it definetely. Sleipnir is one of the best songs I heard in the last few mounths. I agree with you that there are just too much inteludes, speeches, orchestra etc but it is also done very good, I enjoy to listen to all of that. It is ok if you don't like that album much, I always thought that it is stupid to like all albums just because you like the band, and there are many people that do that, even if they don't like the album they would say it is awesome, without any explanation but it is Manowar, it must be good. But this album is great lol - what a post, I can't understand what I wanted to say lol

I wish he (Joey) would just leave out the speeches and interludes and overtures and write all that crap in the liner notes instead, Sleipnir is probably my favorite song on the album and I have to sit through another minute of narratives before the music kicks in. Its a very tedious album to say the least.

Yeah, you are right, they should make music they used to, and if they still want to make songs with orchestra naratives etc, they can always make some solo project

Or atleast mesh the Metal and the orchestrations together like Rhapsody, instead of having metal song-orchestra track-metal song-orchestra track, have Metal orchestra track?

I could totally picture a heavy Manowar song with Orchestrations in the back, they sort of did it with the intro to 'Warriors Of The World' but only to a small extent. And yes Joey probably does care, ive read that Manowar are really in touch with there fans.
