Product Description

Manowar, the legendary power metal band, unleashed their third studio album, "Sign Of The Hammer," on January 1, 1984, under the Virgin Records label. This iconic album is a testament to the band's raw power and unyielding energy, encapsulating the essence of heavy metal and hard rock. With a runtime of just 40 minutes, "Sign Of The Hammer" is a relentless journey through eight tracks of high-octane metal, each one a testament to Manowar's prowess.

The album kicks off with "All Men Play On Ten," setting the tone for the rest of the record with its thunderous riffs and commanding vocals. "Animals" and "Thor (The Powerhead)" follow, each track a demonstration of Manowar's ability to blend mythological themes with heavy metal. "Mountains" and "Sign Of The Hammer" continue the momentum, showcasing the band's knack for creating anthems that resonate with fans.

Manowar's Flawless Pressing
5 out of 5 stars
lcgmalhuuyl2 January 2026United States🇺🇸
Another classic from Manowar, absolutely killer sound quality! The record itself is perfectly pressed, no issues there. Just one thing to watch out for: the needle doesn't lift at the end of side B. !!! HEADS UP !!!
Manowar Sounds Best Ever
5 out of 5 stars

Manowar finally sounds as they should with this version. No hiss, no pops. Crystal clear and the treble is fantastic. The low end packs a serious punch.
Disappointing Back on Black Version
3 out of 5 stars

Great album overall, but the Back on Black version left me let down... The print quality of the cover is quite poor. I'll have to track down the original version to swap out the BOB one.

Seriously overlooked heavy metal masterpiece! The cover art might've held it back from getting the spotlight haha, but the music here is just incredibly fun, unique, and stunning. Each track is top-notch, but “Mountains” truly stands out—just… incredible! Don’t miss out on this, it’s pure classic heavy metal brilliance! Totally awesome!
