Manowar for the 21st Century

Review Score: (8/10)
This CD has it's excellent points, it's good points, and maybe one bad point. First off, the excellent points. The songs "Call To Arms," "Warriors Of The World United," "Hand of Doom," "House of Death," and "Fight Until We Die" are all what fans of the Kings of Metal would expect: Hard, heavy, and brutal! ("House of Death" has to be one of the most brutal Manowar songs I've heard so far.) "Swords in the Wind/Valhalla" are nice ballads done in classic Manowar style. "Fight For Freedom" borders on excellence in my opinion, with a positive message that encapsulates the American Spirit. "Nessun Dorma" and "An American Trilogy" are both very nicely done, once you get past the shock of hearing Eric Adams sing opera and Elvis. "The March" is just "eh;" It's just an intrumental and a cheesy one at that. But overall, the good far outweighs the bad on this CD in my opinion. Buy it if you're a fan of Manowar and if you're prepared for a couple of surprises.
