"Swords in the Wind" is a nice power-ballad, Eric's voice can be soothing at times and he can be an awesome singer. I do not know if it was management or Joey de Maio who comes up with these weird ideas to have such tracks on the album. "Nessun Dorma" is a song by Pavarotti, it's basically nothing on this album. Things go bad with "Fight for Freedom", the intro drags a but and Eric's tone is a bit weird (the arrangements don't help either). Some songs are very good, starting with "A Call to Arms" a powerful and groovy opener. This album is a bit appalling at first because it has some of the most amazing stuff I have heard in years by Manowar but also has some of the worst stuff I have heard in years, but the good stuff strongly makes up for it. "Warriors of the World" makes me think of "The Triumph of Steel" because of its uneven nature.
We shall go through this album song by song. The truth is, Manowar who claim to be "Kings of Metal" actually get less and less metal with every release. In 2002, Manowar signed with a new label (Nuclear Blast) with a pretty stable line-up. So what can you expect by the most manliest and "loudest band in the world" 20 years after they first hit the scene? Well, let's find out. Their flatulence the cause of some forest fires and to top it all off the tale spreading around the internet that Eric Adams is so metal, that he survived 5 abortions before his mother finally gave up. Manowar: The manliest band ever, the band that eats live animals, usees Tabasco sauce as eye drops, as well as using the blood of virgins as pizza sauce. Many stand against us, but they will never win We said we would return and here we are again To bring them all destruction, suffering and pain We are the hammer of the gods, we are thunder, wind and rain.Review Summary: This album has some of the best stuff Manowar have done in years and also some of the worst. We alone are fighting for metal that is true We own the right to live the fight, we're here for all of you Now swear the blood upon your steel will never dry Stand and fight together beneath the battle skyīrothers everywhere raise your hands into the air We're warriors, warriors of the world Like thunder from the sky sworn to fight and die We're warriors, warriors of the world Here our soldiers stand from all around the world Waiting in a line to hear the battle cry All are gathered here, victory is near The sound will fill the hall, bringing power to us all
