It takes some time of listening when compared to Louder than Hell for example. But the more I listen to it, the more I love it. Including orchestration, symphonies and narrations, the album melds classical music with Manowar's signature sound, creating one hell of a beautiful atmosphere. This is Music! Eric's voice is, dare i say, clearer and more emotional than ever before (take Blood Brothers for instance).
Songs like King of Kings, Sleipnir, Loki and Sons of Odin... especially Sons of Odin (in my case) will get you punching the air! Other songs are gonna get a tear to you eye, others will give you goosebumps. This is an emotional album, this is not noise-pollution like most of the modern junk we get nowadays, believe me THIS IS MUSIC. Just shut your eyes, blast those speakers full on and see for yourself. As per usual, this is an album to be played at high volume, no posers!

Essential Manowar. A fantastic return to the form of yore. The packaging is unique and hints at whats to follow on disc. Manowar's lyrics, based on Norse mythology, are the icing on the musical cake. True Heavy Metal made even better by crisp, bright production and Manowar's obvious passion for the genre. Muscianship... flawless as usual. ESSENTIAL. Play very loud!! Hail the Kings of Metal. Await the arrival of the longships!!

After so many years of grief from the rock press, suddenly they have realised that Grunge was a flash in the pan, Nu-metal was as manufactured as the spice girls, and now Maiden and Priest are cool again. 'Battle metal' is having a resurgence also- 3 inches of blood, Dragon Force, Fintroll and others are all enjoying deserving success in this new wave of interest. But they are not 'the daddies'. They are not the best. They are not Manowar. Here come the old guard, the band that stuck to their artistic beliefs through the swirls and eddies of musical trends, maintained their vision when all around scoffed and scorned, and have returned to a public more receptive than any time in the last 20 years with an absolute belter of an album. The musicianship is guaranteed on manowar releases- incredible as always,and Adams voice is not cowed or weakened one jot by a long career of use and abuse. What makes this album so exciting is the energy and renewed purpose in the music. As with all Manowar albums, it is best listened to as a whole, rather than looking for standout tracks, and as a whole is easily up their with 'Hail to England' and 'Kings of Metal', and vastly superior to anything from 'Triumph of Steel' onwards.
The kings are back, wimps and posers leave the hall.
