Fuck yeah! I love Manowar. So incredibly cheesy.

I wouldn't tell them that to their faces, though. They'd beat the crap of you in the name of Metal, then write a song about how they defended Metal from your poser bullshit, complete with a kick ass solo and references to how fucking great they are for doing it.

I own all their studio albums. The cheese factor is very high indeed but I really love'em and there's little that ups my mood as good as Manowar can :D

(Probably for the same reason my neighbors must hate them, hehe! "Speakers explode...")

They're more cheesy than roquefort. In a good way, of course.

Manowar should have named themselves "the phantom carrot". Then i'd buy their shite.

The thing is...like the Dairy product...some things are just too cheesy....I remember it was ok to listen to them before I saw a picture of them in "Kerrang" and then the utter horror when I saw the furry briefs...the baby oil....I recorded over the tape I had.

Not for the faint of heart (http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000005RF7.01.LZZZZZZZ.gif)

I had to listen to "Venom" for a week before I felt well again.

Hands of doom are reaching out to crush all infidels who stray
Time to know the pain, no time to run within
And these hands you see before you will end the light of day
Your ashes will be cast into the wind
Your blood's upon the soil, your body fed to wolves
Not one of you will be left alive
Hear the sound pounding and the army of the night
By the hammer of Thor you now shall die

I have written this after the earthshaker last year :

Kings of Metal


They sing about Metal and the Blood of the Kings
About Hail to England and the Crown and the Ring
About Fighting the world, Black Wind, Fire and Steel
And about all their enemies, who should only kneel.

They sing about Thor, and the Sword in the Wind
About Violence and Bloodshed and about Battle Hymns
About Gates of Valhalla and the Triumph of Steel
They stand altogether and to no man they kneel

We wanna play harder , we wanna play loud
We wanna to kick the ass of our crowd
We wanna be warriors just as they are
The Kings of Metal….called Manowar

Joey on Bass , and Eric the voice
You love or you hate them, you´ve got the choice
All Metal warriors, who stand by their side
Will follow their brothers into glory ride

Scott pounds his drums, like the hammer of Thor
Karl plays his guitar, and tells us his lore
They ´re born to rock, to fuck and to drink
Forever and ever, they are the metal kings

We wanna play harder , we wanna play loud....

And as we open the gate,
Which lies behind our fate
Then all our brothers wait there
And raise their hands in the air

And after our dreams are fulfilled
To die on our own battlefield
And after a honorable fight
We´re proud to sit by their side

We wanna play harder , we wanna play loud....

unfortunally i cannot sing...but the music will rock

Pretty much everytime I tried listening to Manowar I got annoyed, but then again most metal bugs the shit out of me. I miss the good old days of early Metallica.

I think they're great, no cheese, just great.

Manowar, Manowar
living on the road
when we light up
speakers exlode.
-
The gods made heavy metal
and they saw that it was good
they said to play it louder than hell
and we promised that we would

When losers say it's over with
you know that it's a lie
the gods made heavy metal
and it's never gonna die.

I mean...come on, they wtfpwn anything on the charts today, I'm not saying they're the best ever, they'll never top AC/DC, Maiden, Black Sabbath or G&R but they are waaaaaay better than todays music...which suck.
