Hello Manowarriors around the world.

My name is Rubí Arenzana Anízar, I’m 30 years old and I’m from Mexico City.
My story with Manowar began 17 years ago, when I listened the song “Battle Hymns” for the first time. I still remember all that feeling on my body, I have that feeling everytime I listen it. I felt the music on my body and my heartbeat was faster. From that moment, Manowar became part of my life; their lyrics, their melodies, their members have been a great example to me.

One of my biggest dreams, was going to a Manowar’s concert, and when they announced that date in Mexico I cried out of excitement.

I arrived to the place three days before the event, so I could be the first to enter. The staff told me I was crazy, but I didn’t care, I was only thinking about being there and the excitement of seeing and listening to Manowar live.

The day arrived, and when Manowar came out to the scenario, I forgot everything and my body and soul were with them on the scenario. I feel really lucky that Joey DeMaio gave me his string, I felt at that moment an absolute and indescribable happiness that I’ll keep as a treasure for the rest of my life.

All I have to say is: thank you Manowar, you are the best band in the world.

The Kings of Metal Forever!!!!!!!

Hail MANOWAR,

The first MANOWAR song I ever heard was “Thor”.

It was in November 1986, when I left the hospital with my newborn daughter, I heard it on the radio.

Other bands always sing about love and heartache, but MANOWAR was different, this music and lyrics were powerful and amazing! I liked it from the first moment and I love the powerful and lovely voice of Eric!

Since this moment I was a MANOWAR fan and I will be until I die!

All hail to the gods of true metal! ❤

Hi guys… Well my story is..

The first time i heard you guys is through my father i was in a christian family but on the 10th birthday my dad played and introduce to me to Manowar and the first song i heard was “Sons of Odin” then slowly he handed me the walkman and i listen to all the 12 track in the disc and yes slowly it grows and then when i came across the internet i started surfing the Manowar and i found my favourite song “Courage” and it does touch my heart and I’ve never felt anything like it and every time i feel down i always put on this song and yes it lifts me up…

If I’m a Manowar fan today i thank my Father because he’s the one who gives me the #courage to listen….

The very first time I heard anything like metal was when I was 11 years old. I was not a metalhead though. I had always liked heavy music.

My Manowar story started last year when Manowar had announced their tour dates. My twin sister Yağmur  is a die-hard Manowarrior and a metalhead for a very long time. She insisted on going to a Manowar show. She wanted to go so much that she cancelled her internship and all plans related to her studies. She made me listen to all Manowar songs and prepared me for the concert.

The concert day my life changed. I finally understood my twin sister’s passion for Manowar and metal music. And i was reborn as a Manowarrior. It was the best experience of my life, pretty much like the lyrics (Die for Metal):

“They call themselves immortals
They’re the truest of the true
And in that very moment
I was born again like you

They said

Hold your head up high
Raise your fists up in the air
Play metal louder than Hell “

It’s been over a year since then and we are celebrating with our matching SWORD tattoos.

I can never thank my sister enough, without her i wouldn’t be here writing this.

One does not choose to become a metalhead. Metal will find you and make you its own.

Hello,

I have been listening to Manowar since my friend discovered Fighting The World back in 1987, and been to lots of concerts in Denmark and Germany ever since.

I’m into hard endurance sports, and in that regard, mental training is very important and I have discovered that I can use Manowar’s power actively.

When I spend 10-20 hours alone on my bike, with crises along the way and pain for several hours at a time, with only my thoughts as a companion, those thoughts can very quickly become an enemy.

When it gets really tough, I throw Manowar in my ears and build my own Manowar universe in my head, my bike is my horse, my water bottle is my battlesword and then I conquer one town after another, slaughtering the infidels.

Many of the songs have words like “Fight”, “battle” etc, and I sing them loud like a mantra and gear myself up, and it becomes a battle instead of a bike ride.

The trick is to get my thoughts to a completely different place, so I forget the pain and negativity, and in Manowar’s universe, which is extremely macho, you fight to the death, and then I can’t give up either.

I’m still amazed at the effect it has on me. No other music has had a similar effect on me.

The pictures are 2 of me when i’m out riding, 1 of my Sign of the hammer tattoo and one with my mate from the concert in Kiel 2018.

Hail

My name is Davi Colloda Kamaroski, I live in São José dos Pinhais, Paraná state, in southern Brazil.
I appreciate the opportunity to tell you a little about my history with Manowar! It all started when I was 12 years old, I heard the initial chords of “Battle Hymn” on the radio and decided to turn on the recorder because I thought it was amazing, I recorded part of it on a k7 tape, even without knowing the name of the song or the band, which I would only discover years later. I only really got to know the band in 1998 when I watched the video for “Return of the Warlord” on the program Fúria MTV, but the moment that changed my life forever was when I saw Manowar play “Black Wind, Fire and Steel” at the festival Philips Monsters of Rock in 1998. That was just insane! I had never heard a song with so much power before, I felt like I was struck by lightning! From there I started to become a Manowarrior!

I never missed a day of listening to the kings of metal, their music is the fuel of my life, it helps me win the battles of everyday life. Manowar is not for cry babies. The lyrics tell you to get up and fight, live by your heart, have the courage to face all the problems, your songs are not for weaklings! One of the most incredible moments of my life was when I saw the band in São Paulo at the “Death to Infidels tour 2010”. I was very close to the kings because I was on the grid, it was fantastic to see and hear Eric sing, he is not from this planet.

Seeing Joey make that insane sound with his bass. And in 2015 at Monsters of Rock it was even better, there was a lot of power on that stage! In addition to listening to the greatest classics of true metal, I was able to meet Manowarriors from various parts of the world, from all over Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile, Russia and even Japan, all united to praise the kings of metal, I drank beer with many brothers of metal and we toast to power!

Since 2012 I have maintained a group on Facebook called “Warriors of the World (Manowar fans)” where real fans of the band are gathered, no posers! I hope to be able to see MANOWAR again and be able to meet them in person, give Eric, Joey and the whole band a hug, and be able to thank them for being part of my life, because she wouldn’t have the same grace without Manowar and his power. absolute!

Long live the kings of metal.
