Manowar vs Rhapsody
Original post

I can't help but feel that Manowar were not too pleased to be out-cheesed, hence the restrictions put on the band. But this is just speculation. Let's find out who people like more - the original, or the modern.

Wow I like both of their music, but prefer Manowar due to I find Manowar seems more hard than Rhapsody both music physique and lyrical attitude, more bombastic while Rhapsody too noble dignified and I never find good lyric of Rhapsody, enjoying their music but more upon Manowar as with broader aspects.

Written by Guest on 19.06.2012 at 06:27 I actually doubt the culture of teenage metalheads at least generally, has changed very much from the 80's til now. The only difference was, the 80's metalhead kids didn't have access to the net back then.  After all, Manowar's "posers leave the hall" and "death to false metal" nonsense was just as embraced by certain metalheads back in the 80's as it is now.

Tough call, but at the end of the day, Rhapsody Of Fire's music is easier for me to get involved in. Cheesy as it may be, sometimes it can really take me away. A few Manowar songs have done that though, like the Dawn of Battle or whatever that song in Brutal Legend is called. That song is good. I would say I definitely appreciate these bands more than a lot of people in general though

I think that both are amazing bands, but I put in first place Rhapsody of Fire, 'cause...they are really great musicians, I'm not saying that Manowar doesn't but I think ROF are better...anyway, awesome solos...epic choirs and glorious lyrics give to ROF a great advantage!!! Manowar it's always Manowar...brave men and muscles...girls here, girls there...but nothing else matters...and their albums...they have an amazing and powerfull threesome "Kings Of Metal", "The Triumph Of Steel", "Louder Than Hell" but after that...what happened??? The same boring and repetitive songs!

6 simple words: WHEN OTHER BANDS PLAY, MANOWAR KILL!!! but in a serious note: manowar defined the world of metal and pumped out more hits then rhasphody (true they've been around longer) but i mean hail to england is a great album and so is warriors of metal. and they also set the record for loudest band ever AND longest concert . (google it folks) they reached a SPL of 139 db! and that was just during the sound check! and they played for 5 hours and 1 minute in Bulgaria in 2008. btw the threshold of pain is SPL 130db (150 is a jet engine) i think i made myself clear.

Why compare two bands that are completely different from each other as Manowar and Rhapsody are?

Pretty sure I voted for Rhapsody... I still would do the same. At least I used to like them, Manowar on the other hand was always shit to me.
