today's BGM in our office :
MANOWAR / Kings Of Metal (1988)



This was the first MANOWAR album that I listened to.
Around those days, in 1988, I was a middle-teen and was looking for attractive/incentive Heavy Metal like METALLICA whom I was in love with at that time.

I didn't know anything about MANOWAR, but the cover-design was so cool, and eventually their sounds and words struck me like a lightning.

I wanted to collect all MANOWAR album but it was almost impossible in Japan, in 1988.
Only a few friends did know MANOWAR, and all of them didn't know Manowar albums except for Kings Of Metal and Fighting The World which could be found on CD, except for 1 maniac who's elder brother had INTO GLORY RIDE LP.


Into Glory Ride 's cover-design was ... so unique for me,  just an agricultural people in Japan, but it was also amazing that "True Metal" sounds on the LP, too.

MANOWAR visited Japan for stages only once, in 1993 until the last year, and finally they had a superb live-stage in 2014, the first time in these 21 years.
I found that they are still one and only "True Metal" group to blow all False Metal away.
