I've only heard every album preceding this so far (except Sign of the Hammer). But unless Warriors of the World is the most kick-ass Manowar album I'll ever hear this is by far their best. The production is bigger than the early-eighties albums. But the mtv-leanings that the last two albums had with songs like "Blow your Speakers" and "Kings of Metal" are gone. Instead the best elements of both those times, the purely medieval focus of Hail to England and the cleaner production of Fighting the World are combined in Triumph of Steel for the best Manowar album I've heard. All the songs are great but the best is Spirit Horse of the Cherokee (even though it is a pretty stereotypical view of Native Americans). Anyway if any Manowar album is worth your money, it would be this one.
