    Those who find Manowar too much should never listen to them, it's like saying the movie Conan is OTT, that's the point...nothing comic about it at all...just to mainstream people maybe...as Dio once sang "If you dont like R'n'R its too late now"...personally this is the only record I was disappointed by, to me it's too little...last track is the only 100% one but again too little too late & I hated the singles from it, radiotracks. But Defender is a good track always. But the others are too much of verse/chorus ones.

    This is 50% good compared to Into Glory Ride which is their masterpiece.
    They did some better ones after this

    Manowar is always true to metal the bands faking it to make it were not
    and that goes for every hair band to extreme metal band, it's easy to hear who are real.

    At the time this came out metal was my religion.
    You can never fake Metal.
