"I turned on the radio, it shocked me, yes it did/I heard some dolls of media, interesting like a piece of shit/I turned it off and swore an oath, if I'll break if I shall die/I will fight for Metal the rest of my life."
Here's a band who's given their Manowar albums their fair amount of spins. These German boys, led by self-proclaimed "Metal-Son" Tarek Maghary (singer, guitarist, writer), proclaim themselves, proclaim metal and also wave a few swords around in this debut of steady rock that is catchy at times, like with "Strong As Steel" and "Son Of Metal", but doesn't always work - the concluding "Last Revolution" is an example of this.
There's no doubt it's all genuine - Majesty are not posers. But at the same time, it's nothing that hasn't been done before, and it's not good enough to rise about the genre's history.
