Our good friend Micolene Greeff played that role perfectly and I, as any person, with these worries on my chest, never able to rest. That ‘devil’, the worry, your subconscious, the stress is dancing on your chest. He goes on to explain more about the video, “Well, it kind of speaks for itself. It’s also all we can do while we live in a country with people struggling with these issues on top of poverty and hunger for several years now, all for a select few pockets to tear from the seams with riches.” So, when you feel like things are getting too much, scream and shout, it will at least make you feel better for a while. Yet the stress, anxiety and responsibilities just got more. I wrote the song with that in mind and personally with what myself, family, friends, and fellow musos experienced, there is not much support from the higher powers. Guitarist, vocalist and chief songwriter Jason Oosthuizen delves into the inspiration behind the lyrics, “This past almost 2 years have been a struggle for everyone, more than ever before and not just some. Johannesburg based punk infused rockers Oooth release the video for their track Need Some Rest, the 6 th video taken from their 2021 SAMA nominated release Nothing’s Gonna Change. Get this album if youre a fan of metal.Oooth Drop Devilish Video For Their Track “Need Some Rest” Some may also think that it has too much filler and stupid meandering, but the real songs make it up completely. In conclusion, some may think that Manowar are sellouts by releasing such an album but keep in mind they have always maintained this kind of a balance between melody and metal. Too much filler for the bulk of the album. This can be a good album to relax and listen to. The two closing tracks are really good, "Fight Until We Die"s lyrics will get stuck in your head. "Hand Of Doom" is one of the most metal tracks you'll ever hear and kind of takes you by surprise here, although Eric's voice isnt as glorious as it used to be, he sings this track really really well. The pace is then provided by a trio of tracks, fast and energetic. But fear not, for it's here that Manowar chooses to recover with "Warriors of the World United." The riff is simplistic, a recurring problem since the arrival of Kar Logan, but I hesitate to hold him accountable for his simplistic riffs, because theyre extremely effective and seem to get the right feeling across. These three songs are horrible but I can understand why Manowar did them because they were searching for a patriotic theme for the album.Īt this stage, the album seems condemned to sink. Then comes "The March", an instrumental that just makes the album drag more and you start to wonder if this album would ever take off. "An American Trilogy", which us an Elvis Presley cover and I dont know what the heck its doing on this album. "Swords in the Wind" is a nice power-ballad, Eric's voice can be soothing at times and he can be an awesome singer. I do not know if it was management or Joey de Maio who comes up with these weird ideas to have such tracks on the album.

"Nessun Dorma" is a song by Pavarotti, it's basically nothing on this album. Things go bad with "Fight for Freedom", the intro drags a but and Eric's tone is a bit weird (the arrangements don't help either).

Some songs are very good, starting with "A Call to Arms" a powerful and groovy opener. This album is a bit appalling at first because it has some of the most amazing stuff I have heard in years by Manowar but also has some of the worst stuff I have heard in years, but the good stuff strongly makes up for it. "Warriors of the World" makes me think of "The Triumph of Steel" because of its uneven nature. We shall go through this album song by song. The truth is, Manowar who claim to be "Kings of Metal" actually get less and less metal with every release. In 2002, Manowar signed with a new label (Nuclear Blast) with a pretty stable line-up. So what can you expect by the most manliest and "loudest band in the world" 20 years after they first hit the scene? Well, let's find out. Their flatulence the cause of some forest fires and to top it all off the tale spreading around the internet that Eric Adams is so metal, that he survived 5 abortions before his mother finally gave up. Manowar: The manliest band ever, the band that eats live animals, usees Tabasco sauce as eye drops, as well as using the blood of virgins as pizza sauce. Review Summary: This album has some of the best stuff Manowar have done in years and also some of the worst.
