The 1984 Listening Post - Manowar - Sign of the Hammer

Manowar - Sign of the Hammer

#269
October 15 1984
Manowar
Sign of the Hammer
3.25 out of 5

I have to wonder if I hadn’t been inundated with sooooo much metal in the 84 listen would I like, love or hate this record?
I think it’s actually funny (“Thor the Powerhead”) but not good by any means.
And that song is kind of the high point for me.
How’s this? If a metal band listened to nothing but Pink Floyd for a month and then wrote an album I think it would sound like this.
