I Love Manowar, but this album just doesn't get it done! The only song on this album that really hits home is "Blood of my Enemies", although I do like the axe-work on "Black Arrows". The rest of the songs just don't have the metal intensity that I'm used to hearing from Manowar. Their raw talent does shine through in moments on this album, but I think the album is poorly produced! To review this album on the basis of their concepts or image is a mistake, this is why the mainstream music industry in America is so corrupted and fake!The universal message of Manowars music is always the same and unless you are a true musical person, you probably won't get it!!Even though this is my least favorite by Manowar, I still think this is a page in Manowars book that should be read!
