The Story
Manowar is an American heavy metal band from the United States known for their bombastic sound and themes steeped in fantasy and mythology. Active since 1980, the group features members Ross the Boss, Eric Adams, Joey DeMaio, and David Shankle, delivering powerful anthems with crushing guitars and soaring vocals. Their slogan "death to false metal" captures their commitment to the genre and its true fans. Noteworthy tracks like "Kings of Metal" exemplify their epic style, which has been described as both loud and emphatic. With a penchant for theatricality, Manowar has also made headlines with record-breaking performances that push the limits of heavy metal.
