Album Notes & Community Reviews
Returning to a more stripped-down, traditional heavy metal approach after the symphonic excess of 'Gods of War', Manowar released 'The Lord of Steel' as a direct homage to their 80s roots. The record, notably controversial among fans for Joey DeMaio's uniquely distorted bass tone, focuses entirely on straightforward, groove-driven anthems about fantasy and heavy metal brotherhood.
