Much is being said about the new Manowar material, but one thing is certain: it is 100% pure metal, true to Manowar's motto of always bringing something bigger, louder, faster, harder and heavier to the table.     The Battle Continues! Manowar Live At Earthshaker Fest 2005 On July 23rd of 2005, MANOWAR headlined the Earthshaker Fest 2005. This performance was a unique historical event, as it included a grand finale featuring MANOWAR members past and present on stage as one powerful, heavy metal legion as well as an epic set up with a 200-piece choir and orchestra. The majesty and emotion of this event and the overwhelming reaction of more than 25.000 fans in attendance, serves as a fantastic example of the preeminence that MANOWAR embodies. Accompanying this spectacular concert, the MANOWAR Mega Fan Convention itself was something to marvel at. Thousands of fans from countries across the globe converged on Geiselwind, Germany for three days of MANOWAR festivities. After witnessing the devotion and commitment of MANOWAR's fans, it is obvious why the band attests to having "the greatest fans in the world."
