I've only ever been able to listen to "Achilles" in full maybe twice. That song is just ass. Manowar were never exactly brilliant songwriters, and trying to do that song just exposes their limitations for all the world to see. It just feels like a bunch of solos haphazardly slapped together without any kind of logic.

And "Metal Warriors" is awesome.

It was a bit tiresome. I love "Gates of Valhalla", but they're no Virgin Steele, let's be honest here.
