Majesty
It's pretty obvious where this German band was headed, judging from their
album covers and titles (
Keep It True , indeed!).
Bombastic, anthemic, and, er, majestic,
late-period
Manowar
worship was the order of the day here, and a simple glance at their
song titles imply they weren't interested in broadening their horizons
(six albums in, and there were still song titles like
"Heavy Metal Desire", "March For Victory",
"Fight Forever", and so forth).
To their credit, Manowar themselves have been a huge draw in Europe
for years
and these guys captured that spirit pretty well.
The band were consistently active from their formation in 1997
until their final disbandment, with the exception of a three-year
period where they broke up in 2008, essentially re-emerged as a "new"
band
(
Metalforce ),
released one album under said name, and then came back as Majesty
in 2011.
A permanent breakup was announced in April 2023, shortly
before the release of their swansong,
Back To Attack .
