Joey DeMaio talks about The Final Battle World Tour, MANOWAR’s long awaited return to Greece and new projects the band has in store for the Greatest Fans In The World!

With kind permission by Metal Hammer Greece

Q: MANOWAR just finished Leg I of “The Final Battle” World Tour 2019. How was it?
Joey: It was spectacular!

Q: Can you elaborate?
Joey: Absolutely! Every single aspect of this tour was mind-blowing. The places we went to for the first time – Novosibirsk, Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Yekaterinburg, Samara and Rostov-On-Don in Russia; Kiev in the Ukraine and then Norwegian’s Longyearbyen, in the arctic circle! We played as close as you can to the North Pole and were joined by fans from over 34 countries! This was one of those once-in-a-lifetime moments. We are grateful and proud that we found great partners with balls of steel who helped bring our music to new places and new fans.

Q: For someone who has been doing this for so long you sound pretty impressed.
Joey: I am! We’ve completed over 35 tours in our career and every single one was great, but the last three months were every artist’s dream. Imagine – you go to a country that no record label has ever promoted you in, you haven’t been on TV or radio and you’re about to play cities you’ve never set foot in. We were excited but didn’t really know what to expect. And then what happened? We played sold out shows and the fans went absolutely berserk! They welcomed us with such passion – and they knew all our songs. It was terrific.

Q:  How do you explain your success in these new places?
Joey: I think it is a combination of reasons: We’ve always won new fans through word of mouth. Either they know someone who has seen us live, or they have seen videos and realized that we are authentic in what we say and do; and that we give our fans the greatest experience we can, in every way and every time. They also see this incredible bond not just between fans and band, but among the fans. It’s family. They meet before the shows, have parties, visit each other in their homes and travel from country to country; not just to see our concerts but also to meet their friends.

Q: You also returned to places you’ve played in the past, among others in the Czech Republic, Germany, and Norway, and you finally returned to England. Was that routine compared to the new places?
Joey: Not at all! Every place we go, every city we play is special to us. For the shows in Eastern Europe logistics didn’t allow us to bring our complete, new production; we were only able to use that starting in the Czech Republic, and then in Germany and forward. Seeing that stage come to life was equally exciting for the band and crew as it was for our fans.

Q: Indeed, you toured with a completely new stage production – a combination of giant set pieces, 4k video screens and a Viking troupe no less! How did the fans respond to that all?
Joey: We’ve received a ton of great feedback. Fans told us on social media, in emails and in person how they loved the new production. This is the result of over a year of preparation, and we are thrilled that the fans got a kick out of it. Of course, we’ll have this production with us on our upcoming summer shows.

Q: You also released three new CDs on this tour, “Hail To England Imperial Edition MMXIX”, “Into Glory Ride Imperial Edition MMXIX” and “The Final Battle I”. What can you tell us about these?
Joey: For the “Hail To England” and “Into Glory Ride” Imperial Editions we took the time and effort and went back to the original master recordings. They were transferred from analog to digital in the highest possible quality and were then completely remixed and remastered. Finally, these songs sound like we always envisioned them. And of course, we had promised our fans new music: “The Final Battle I” is where it begins. It is the first in a trilogy of EPs. It has the same title as the tour since the song writing was inspired by this great adventure: By the places, by the people and by what we associate with the spirit of a Final Battle.

Q: Let’s talk about “final”. Are these upcoming summer shows really going to be the last MANOWAR shows ever?
Joey: OK, let me clarify something. We never announced the end of MANOWAR, we didn’t even plan to never tour again. There are so many places that we constantly get fan requests from… We said it’s time for a break. So that we can work on other projects for our fans: For example, I’ll be traveling with my Spoken Word Tour this winter where I’ll be talking about the history of the band, rare photos and video included. I am working on a metal opera (think “We Will Rock You”, but MANOWAR style). And of course, we’ll continue with Part II and III of our “The Final Battle” trilogy. But I’ll be honest: With the overwhelming feedback from this tour, and fans literally begging us to continue it is really hard to not think of new touring. We’ve had fans tell us that the thought of us retiring or not touring anymore takes the joy out of their lives. Having such an impact is an honor and a responsibility that we take seriously.

Q: Anything else you’d like to say?
Joey: Yes. We want to thank all our loyal fans out there. You are the ones that made this tour such a huge success! Without you none of this would have happened. Special thanks to those who traveled from afar, many from distant countries and other continents even. We made MANOWAR history together on The Final Battle World Tour! These are the memories that will be written about and talked about, now and in the future!

Q: Thank you for taking the time, Joey.
Joey: It’s been a pleasure. We’ll see you in the summer when we continue THE FINAL BATTLE World Tour!

Manowarriors, behold! Two of the greatest classics in Heavy Metal history return to you, bigger and better than ever before!

On July 1, 1983, MANOWAR released their second album: “Into Glory Ride”, an imperious statement of metallic intent and one of the most brutal, raw and punishing records ever released. From the opening assault of “Warlord” and the monumental “Gates Of Valhalla” to the devastating drama and doom-laden fury of “Hatred”, and culminating in the morbid grandeur of “Revelation (Death’s Angel)” and the life-affirming splendour of the closing epic “March For Revenge”… all instantly recognisable as the works of four true metal maniacs.

Forced into a somewhat rushed and compromised production – which did not prevent “Into Glory Ride” from winning a prime place in metal history – “Hail To England” followed a little over six months later. Another record packed with tracks that would soon become fan favorites; from “Bridge Of Death” or the jaw-shattering “Kill With Power” to the stirring melodies of “Hail To England” itself, and others alike.

Now these two immortal landmarks have been revived and revitalised for a completely new and improved experience!

For the “Into Glory Ride Imperial Edition MMXIX” and the “Hail To England Imperial Edition MMXIX” the original multitrack master recordings of these undisputed metal classics were transferred from analog to digital in 96kHz quality, adding the depth, the power and the clarity that could not be present in the original mixes and masters.

Remixed in MANOWAR’s very own Valhalla Studios by long-time collaborator Ronald Prent utilizing their mind-boggling 27,000 Watts PMC monitors and remastered by 4-time GRAMMY Award winner Darcy Proper these Imperial Editions are a statement of what MANOWAR are committed to deliver for their loyal followers: the royal standard of sonic bliss!

Fans will first be able to secure their “Into Glory Ride Imperial Edition MMXIX” and “Hail To England Imperial Edition MMXIX” at the merch booth during MANOWAR’s “The Final Battle World Tour”, starting in Frankfurt, Germany on March 29, 2019 and on all further dates on this tour leg. The albums will also be available digitally on iTunes worldwide at the same date. The roll out will then continue into retail and online stores starting May 30, 2019 and digitally on Amazon and Google Play.

The wait is over! MANOWAR have finally confirmed the impending release of “The Final Battle I”, an EP comprised of eagerly awaited brand new material. Fans will first get their chance to own this initial instalment in a trilogy of thunderous EPs in an exclusive pre-sale at the merchandise booth of the band’s “The Final Battle World Tour 2019”, starting with their show in Frankfurt/Germany on March 29, 2019.
An exclusive digital presale period will start on iTunes the same day.

“The Final Battle I” is guaranteed to blow your speakers and your heads off with a whirlwind of crushing sonic destruction, orchestral majesty and epic, pulverising insanity.

The first of three parts which will constitute the highly anticipated new MANOWAR album, this EP is destined to go down in heavy metal history as one of the most insanely epic releases of all time. An imperious demonstration of the band’s undisputed mastery of both skull-crushing metal anthems and extraordinary feats of symphonic bombast, these four new molten metal tracks have been inspired by MANOWAR’s “The Final Battle World Tour” and fuelled by the support and energy of their fans. All music was conceived, recorded and mixed at MANOWAR’s very own VALHALLA STUDIOS, utilizing the unparalleled power of their PMC statement monitors with over 27,000 watts of ground-shaking clarity.

“The sheer power of these four songs is mind-blowing! We simply couldn’t release more songs at one time; it’s just too much!” says Joey DeMaio. “We want to give our fans the chance to take in every note, every word. Gain more strength from this experience and then be ready for the battles they fight every day. And join us on the road, on The Final Battle!”

“The Final Battle I” covers a vast amount of musical ground in its quest to deliver the ultimate heavy metal experience. The opener, the epic fantasy-brought-to-life March Of The Heroes Into Valhalla re-imagines MANOWAR’s music in vivid, cinematic form, providing a deeply moving journey through the warrior’s life, from bloody battles to ascension into Valhalla. The battle filled mood continues with the spine-shattering might and fury of the new anthem Blood And Steel. Next is Sword Of The Highlands, one of the most explosive and dramatic songs DeMaio has ever penned: a profound and stirring tribute to heroes long perished, it begins with exquisite elegance before erupting into a grand crescendo of power and glory, exemplified by a possible career best vocal performance from the ever impressive Eric Adams.

Finally, the most startling surprise arrives in the dark, lurking, brutal and merciless form of You Shall Die Before I Die; a hypnotic and coruscating epic that delivers a vengeful statement of intent and invincibility… with lead vocals by Joey DeMaio himself!

“The Final Battle I” comes with a crushing new artwork by iconic fantasy artist Ken Kelly, masterfully echoing the emotional rollercoaster you’ll be taken on.

Magnificent, monstrous and heavier than Hell, “The Final Battle I” will first be unleashed exclusively at the merch booth during MANOWAR’s “The Final Battle World Tour”, starting in Frankfurt/Germany on March 29, 2019 and on all further dates on this tour leg. It will also be available digitally on iTunes worldwide at the same date. The roll out will then continue into retail and online stores on May 30, 2019 and digitally on Amazon and Google. Play.

.
Das Warten ist vorbei! MANOWAR haben endlich die unmittelbar bevorstehende Veröffentlichung ihrer EP
„The Final Battle I“ bestätigt, die aus mit Spannung erwartetem brandneuem Material besteht. MANOWAR Fans haben die Chance diese erste aus einer Trilogie donnernder EPs in einem exklusiven Vorverkauf am Merchandise Stand der „The Final Battle World Tour 2019“ zu erwerben, erstmals während der Show am 29. März 2019 in Frankfurt am Main. Die EP wird ab diesem Tag außerdem in einem exklusiven digitalen Vorverkauf weltweit bei iTunes erhältlich sein.

„The Final Battle I“ wird mit ihrem einzigartigen Mix aus ungezähmter Kraft, orchestraler Majestät und epischem Ausmaß zweifellos Köpfe und Lautsprecher bersten lassen.

Der erste von drei Teilen, die zusammen das mit Spannung erwartete neue MANOWAR Album bilden, wird als eine der unglaublichsten Veröffentlichungen in die Geschichte des Heavy Metal eingehen. Vier neue Tracks aus geschmolzenem Metal demonstrieren eindrucksvoll, daß MANOWAR alle Facetten des Genres meisterhaft beherrschen; von Schädel-zersplitternden Metal-Hymnen zu einzigartigen Bravourstücken symphonischen Bombasts. Inspiration für die neuen Stücke fanden MANOWAR in ihrer “The Final Battle World Tour” und in der Unterstützung und Energie ihrer Fans. Die gesamte Musik wurde in MANOWARs eigenen VALHALLA STUDIOS erdacht, aufgenommen und unter Einsatz ihrer beispiellosen 27.000 Watt starken PMC Monitore in einzigartiger Klangqualität abgemischt.

„Die schiere Kraft dieser vier Songs ist umwerfend! Wir konnten einfach nicht mehr auf einmal veröffentlichen.
Es wäre einfach zu viel!“, sagte Joey DeMaio. „Wir möchten unseren Fans die Möglichkeit geben, jede Note, jedes Wort aufzunehmen, Kraft aus dieser Erfahrung zu gewinnen und sich damit für die Schlachten zu stärken, mit denen sie jeden Tag konfrontiert werden. Und uns dann auf Tour zu treffen, zum Final Battle!“

„The Final Battle I“ deckt ein weites Terrain ab um das ultimative Heavy Metal-Erlebnis zu liefern. Der Opener, der epische, Soundtrack-reife Track „March Of The Heroes Into Valhalla“ entdeckt MANOWAR’s Musik in lebendiger, cinematographischer Breitwandqualität neu, und nimmt den Hörer auf eine tief bewegende Reise durch das Leben des Kriegers, von blutigen Schlachten bis zum Einzug in Valhalla. Die Kampfstimmung geht weiter mit der furchterregenden Macht und Wut der neuen Hymne „Blood And Steel”, gefolgt von „Sword Of The Highlands“, eines der explosivsten und dramatischsten Stücke die DeMaio jemals geschrieben hat: Eine tief bewegende Hommage an längst verstorbene Helden. Der Song beginnt mit exquisiter Eleganz bevor er in ein gewaltiges Crescendo von Kraft und Erhabenheit ausbricht, getragen vom beeindruckenden Gesang des zeitlosen Eric Adams in einer der besten Leistungen seiner Karriere.
Zum Schluß schließlich die wohl größte Überraschung, in Gestalt des dunklen, lauernden, brutalen und erbarmungslosen „You Shall Die Before I Die“; ein hypnotisches und ergreifendes Wuchtstück und unversöhnliche Absichtserklärung mit unabwendbarem Ausgang zugleich… mit Lead-Vocals von Joey DeMaio!

Für „The Final Battle I“ schuf der legendäre Fantasy Maler Ken Kelly ein neues Kunstwerk, das visuell meisterhaft die emotionale Achterbahn widerspiegelt die den Hörer erwartet.

Prächtig, ungebändigt und monströs wird “The Final Battle I” erstmals während MANOWARs “The Final Battle World Tour 2019” ab 29. März 2019 in Frankfurt/Main und allen weiteren Termine auf dieser Tour-Etappe entfesselt. Die EP wird ab diesem Tag außerdem exklusiv digital bei iTunes verfügbar sein. Der Roll-Out folgt dann am 30. Mai 2019 im stationären und Online Einzelhandel und digital auf Amazon und Google Play.

Teil II und III der Trilogie werden folgen, inspiriert von den weiteren Abenteuern die MANOWAR während der „The Final Battle World Tour“ noch erleben.
