He's also said:

"We play Metal pure, you know. We don't play radio bull****. We don't suck ass''.

Eric Adams, Manowar Vocalist said:

"It's a shame that future musicians growing up now are being influenced by trash; it's really upsetting. You are basically formed by what your influences are and if you've got losers for influences, you're going to have a hard time overcoming that.''

See, these guys may be too 'extremist' when it comes to hating stuff, but they have a point. Nu-Metal might imitate the real thing, but it is not True Metal. Its a complete mockery of what Classic Metal really is.
I agree with what they said, but they're not exactly metal themselves...
...atleast good metal, they're not.It's good to know that they're not gonna conform though, supposedly.
