THE REVIEW
Manowar The Triumph Of Steel
Imagine yourself in a medieval plain... on a horse, awaiting a powerful enemy army... armed with a long golden sword forged by the gods and an invincible armor... this is Triumph Of Steel... one of the great masterpieces of the Kings Of Metal. This album was released in 1992 after the masterpiece Kings Of Metal, but the lineup is not the original: Davide Shankle on guitar instead of the great Ross, Rhino, a young Native American on drums replacing Scott Columbus, and then there's Eric Adams on vocals and the great Joey DeMario on bass.
The album opens with Achilles, Agony and Ecstasy in Eight Parts, a song of 28 minutes, mixing sweet sounds with aggressive tones. Metal Warriors is a beautiful track, powerful and epic! Ride The Dragon gathers archaic yet metallic sounds that develop the epic sense in this masterpiece. Also, Spirit Horse Of The Cherokee continues to amaze the listener with archaic melodies. In Burning, Joey De Mario gives his best, showcasing his capabilities, The Power Of Thy Sword is a masterpiece of heavy and epic metal... beautiful... epic... spectacular. The Demon’s Whip is another splendid epic ride... the album concludes with the splendid and calm Master Of The Wind.
In short, this CD makes you dream... You must have it if you're a fan of the genre, at least to listen once to The Power Of Thy Sword or Master Of The Wind... the rating is obvious... 5 ...

"’Triumph of Steel’, ultra-classic heavy metal, with 50,000 piercing screams of Eric Adams per song, the super-tight power chords, the beautiful and ultra-fast solos, is an album that deserves recognition."
"Here’s the true gem of the album... ’Master Of The Wind’. Only acoustic guitar, almost imperceptible, and Adams’ voice in all its splendor: every dream is allowed, let’s believe in them, and move forward at any cost."
By Starblazer
"28 minutes of boredom and unnecessary technicalities."
"Eric Adams sings like a god, greatly supported by a band that seems to have rediscovered the glory days."
