Title: Manowar - 'The Triumph Of Steel' (Atlantic)
Review: Any band,especially metal that can lay down and record a twenty-eight minute epic that is based on the tale of Homer's 'Iliad',the disc's opener,"Achilles,Agony&Ecstasy In Eight Parts" must be given credit where credit is due.What a concept album.On the track "Death Of Patroclus",vocalist Eric Adams puts some emotion about the pain in which Achilles endures when his best friend gets slain by the evil Hector.A couple of the CD's rockers I also liked were "Ride The Dragon" and "Power Of The Sword".This was the band's seventh lp.Might be their best work since 1984's 'Hail To England'.If you are looking for some fine earth-shattering heavy metal,look no further.
