Well I never heard of them.

:blink: and i guess you voted.. [/b][/quote]
Well, i made this Manowar ? option so people who don't know them can vote too. There are quite a few of them if you believe the poll results. The battle for victory is a never ending one. :Titan:

[Himmler]

the pool would of had better results if the question had a heavy in front of metal...i'm sure of it...

Have you heard their new album Gods Of War ? it rocks a lot, and I must say Sons Of Odin really is smashing great all the way. And what we call true metal now adays started as the name glammetal. But thank goodness it has evolved into a better name.

Sons of Odin AND Gods of War, you mean. :P
Honestly, I rather like their change in approach since Warriors of the World, with slower-paced and more epic songs.

Their more agressive earlier songs still aren't bad either - and hey, nothing beats "The Dawn of Battle" during a really fast game of UT2K4.

[Tulac]

So like do they have any non-war related songs?

[Mighty Midget]

I guess the closest thing I ever got to metal in any form or shape was Iron Maiden (KISS is NOT metal :P). I heard about Manowar and I've seen one or two videos, but frankly I never got the joke and I just think they are silly (yes.... I know.... coming from me.... )

By the time I sort of lost interest in I.M. I was into totally different kinds of music, mainly punk, and I really can't say I know much about this whole metal scene, let alone Manowar. So, in short: I have no particular opinion on that band (other than I think they're silly).

Not every body has the promo called Sons Of Odin from 2006, and no I ment the song Sons of Odin from the album Gods Of War from this year (even though the same song is on the promo from 2006)

It is very odd, and completely weird quite a few people does ridicule Manowar, when Iron Maiden really is the EXACT(or very close) same genre. And no they aren´t silly, Mighty Midget, then you are silly. Since you don´t listen to either groups no more, and I have heard from a few Iron Maiden fans that they in some ways hate Manowar, when even I can hear too many similarities between the bands in their music. And I must correct Chuggies punk history babble about Manowar, since it is untrue.

Joey DeMaio was working as a bass tech / pyrotechnic for Black Sabbath when he met with guitarist Ross the Boss, playing for a group called Shakin Street, a Black Sabbath support band. They later recruited Eric Adams for vocals and Donny Hamzik for the drums, to create Manowar (well I read this on their site long ago, before it became wiki material)

Yes, they have made alot without war in it.

Manowar rocks, but I prefer metal like Blind Guardian & Hammerfall (Epic feeling) and Helloween. Ahh Iron Maiden too.
