Kings of Metal is undoubtedly one of the best Manowar albums, stylistically perhaps the center and summit of her life and in any case, just a damn strong metal album. It is representative of all the qualities of a band that is poorly made since years and put in drawers. But really any examination of them want to really succeed the garnicht. After all these years it seems to me just as before and would offer Manowar extremely much attack surface, what an army egomaniacal critics (like me) makes it incredibly easy, which ranks again in my eyes somewhere between courage and disinterest. Clear; Manowar give themselves arrogant, aggressive and direct than directly, but honestly I would have not at all different. The hat-nothing with my intellect, or to do with the band - because they simply Personalized something. Namely an incredible freedom and somewhere even humanity as they sing merely what is so deep within us. Quasi the antithesis of all our morals and our religion demonizing our nature unjustly. Desswegen give me Manowar so much. Even today ...
With Wheels of Fire, Kings of Metal, Heart of Steel, Kingdom Come, Hail and Kill and Blood of the Kings a couple of definitely best Manowar songs on "Kings of Metal" represent! Here take bite and playfulness of a young band on musical maturity and atmospheric sensibility - which indeed gets out of hand a little bit at the moment. But are very satisfied with everything! Simply fooled and push the ego! 5 stars for Manowar!
