Former ManOwaR Guitarist Ross The Boss Celebrates the Silver Edition of "Battle Hymns"

For the first time in nearly twelve years, Ross The Boss visited Haus Wahn Fried studio. Although the former ManOwaR guitarist was in town on June 9, 2001, to sign copies of the newly released Silver Edition of Battle Hymns, he used the opportunity to reminisce with Joey, Eric, and Scott and talk shop with Karl.
"The Silver Edition of Battle Hymns is finally in my hands and it looks and sounds great," beamed Ross. "I am proud to have been a part of this. I am now looking forward to release of Into Glory Ride and Hail to England (the Silver Edition)."

Original ManOwaR Drummer Donnie Hamzik Anticipates the Silver Edition of "Battle Hymns"

"Among my favorite Battle Hymns songs are "Battle Hymn" and "Dark Avenger," says original ManOwaR drummer Donnie Hamzik. "Battle Hymn is a classic tune. Eric's vocals still gives me goose bumps. I love "Dark Avenger" for Orson Welles' narration and the double bass (drum) part during the second half of the song.
We recorded at Criteria Studios (now the Hit Factory) in Miami at night. Although I figured it was because we were night people, it turned out that Aerosmith was recording (Between a Rock and a Hard Place) during the day in the studio next to us and complained that they could hear us when we played. There was quite a bit of talk around Criteria about how unbelievably loud the band in studio E was.
I was in a music store last year and looked through ManOwaR's slot. I was disappointed that Battle Hymns was not available on CD. I am now excited (however) about the Silver Edition of Battle Hymns. It looks and sounds better than ever."

ManOwaR have finished work above the Silver Edition "Battle Hymns". It arrives on June 19th. With 20-bit digital mastering of original tapes taken directly from its vault, Manowar has created the ultimate version of its monumental metal debut, which, until now, has been unavailable on CD in many parts of the world. The Silver Edition of "Battle Hymns" includes a deluxe 20-page booklet designed by famed heavy metal art director Brian Ames, and features exclusive photographs from the band's archive, interviews with past and present band members, and extensive liner notes written by metal scribe Vinny Cecolini (Metal Maniacs, Metal Hammer, and Hit Parader).

This milestone release will be followed later this year by Silver Editions of "Into Glory Ride" and "Hail To England".
