Wow, what an original and unexpected cover (sarcasm) The only thing that is missing from this being the most typical boring Manowar cover are some strategically placed fur garments and half-naked, muscly women.

Fukken awesome art!! Ken Kelly kicks ass, and his other covers too. That "Hammer Edition" cover sucks at so many levels. Five minutes cheap-ass photoshop collage made by retarded kid...

Quote: While the cover artwork is much better, the bolded part interests me a lot more. Maybe the bass wont be so overpowering in this edition!

Written by Doc G. on 09.10.2012 at 07:56 only more of a sausage fest. at least the last one had nekkid ladies around. seriously, though it looks like it should be on the side of some 1975 custom van with shag carpeting and an 8 track.

Ken Kelly doesn't get any better with time. That lava stream on the right is just plain bad. It would be worth a try to take artworks from Fighting, Triumph and Louder, and to photoshop em all into this piece of crap. Add a grey filter to the background, and you're done: lord of fucking steel, easy as cheap.

Written by Guest on 10.10.2012 at 04:56 Yeah, they meant to call it "Kingdom Of Metal", but then they realised it would sound ridiculous, so they changed. When you see how many times the name Odin appears on Gods Of War, you know what to expect here.
