Manowar: 'Hell On Earth V' DvD due in the fall
Manowar's long-awaited new DVD in the "Hell On Earth" series is finally coming out on November 27. "Hell On Earth V" will cover Manowar's recent world tours including Germany, Norway, Spain, Finland, Russia, Romania, Turkey, USA and Canada. It will feature live performances of old and new classics such as "Gloves Of Metal", "The Crown And The Ring", "Hand Of Doom", "Hymn Of The Immortal Warrior", "Father", "God Or Man" and many others.
Manowar director Neil Johnson - who is responsible for overseeing all of the band's DVDs and music videos - comments: "Picking up where the Earthshaker left off.... 'Hell On Earth V' covers the amazing 'Demons Dragons & Warriors Tour' complete with onstage Vikings and all the craziness that happens behind the scenes of a Manowar show.
"I have done my best to show new and classic songs never captured on camera before, including the much-requested 'Mountains' and songs from the new EP, 'Thunder In The Sky'. It will be a step above 'Hell On Earth Iv' in quality and spectacle."
The DVD will be available for pre-sale exclusively through Manowar's official merchandise shop, The Kingdom Of Steel.
Johnson recently uploaded a two-and-a-half-minute video clip shot during the group's trip to perform at the Norway Rock Festival in Kvindesal on July 10, 2009. Watch the footage below.
"Father", the first song released from Manowar's new EP, "Hammer Of The Gods", was recorded in 16 languages and was included as a bonus CD with the band's new EP, "Thunder In The Sky".
Destined to be a collector's item, the tour edition of the EP was made available at all the festivals Manowar headlined on the "Death to Infidels Tour!". In addition, the EP is available for sale online in high-quality, Dmr-free, Mp3 format only at The Kingdom Of Steel online store. The downloadable version of the EP contains the exact same content as the version on sale during the tour.
Manowar's new album, "Hammer Of The Gods", which is the first installment of "The Asgard Saga", the band's unique multimedia fantasy adventure with best-selling author Wolfgang Hohlbein, is tentatively due this fall.
