It's easy to forget what an incredible album this is. Perhaps Manowar's finest.

I don't know if it's "the costumes" or what, but Manowar do not get the respect they merit. (ah, but it's fine and well for Kiss to wear outlandish costumes... :scratching head:)

Anyway, I sorta agree w/ ya D: Sign Of The Hammer is a helluva good listen.
 
Yeah, I think the costumes and sometimes lack there of went a long way towards putting their musical integrity at question for anyone unfamiliar with their music.
A lot of metal bands wore costumes, but Manowar took it to a "different" level.

I probably have played this twice since buying it '94. When I opened it up and saw that Kai Hansen and Michael Kiske were no longer with the band I knew it would be a bad thing.
It's not really a bad album I guess. But it just doesn't do much for me. Never bought any Helloween after this.

I remember liking this. I'm fairly sure I have the lp.

Absolutely an excellent album. Always a great listen. Was on the TT a couple of months ago.
Only one downer for me and that's Animals. On a record with one gem after another, that one track falls flat for me. Kinda feels like a song they used because they were rushed in the studio and needed to fill a void.
