Manowar, arguably the most metal metal band of all time, has posted the following message online:

This is depressing on a few different levels. There’s the loss of Manowar, of course… but there’s also the fact that they’re just one of several legendary metal bands that have recently either willfully or unwillfully thrown in the towel (Black Sabbath, Motörhead) or are now the band in name only (AC/DC, Slayer). If I believed in God, I’d say He was very angry at the metal community for some reason; as it stands, I have to imagine we’ve pissed off The Spirit of Dio in some massive way. Probably by allowing Thy Art is Murder to happen.

Tour dates when we get ’em. Group therapy in the comments section below.
