Manowar is an American heavy metal band from Auburn, New York, formed in 1980. They are known for their fantasy‑driven lyrics — often inspired by sword‑and‑sorcery themes and Norse or Greco‑Roman mythology — as well as songs that celebrate heavy metal culture and its devoted fanbase. The band is equally famous for its powerful, high‑volume sound. In a 2007 MTV interview, bassist Joey DeMaio remarked that modern metal lacked the “big, epic” style filled with massive guitars, choirs and orchestral elements, adding that Manowar remained one of the few bands still committed to that approach. In 1984, Manowar entered the Guinness Book of World Records for delivering the world’s loudest performance — a record they went on to break twice more. They also hold the record for the longest heavy metal concert, performing for five hours and one minute at Bulgaria’s Kavarna Rock Fest in 2008. The band is well known for its slogan “death to false metal.” Manowar’s story began in 1980 when bassist Joey DeMaio met guitarist Ross “the Boss” Friedman while working as a bass technician and fireworks manager for Black Sabbath on the Heaven & Hell tour.
