MANOWAR To Perform 'Black Wind, Fire & Steel' In Greek At Athens Festival

April 2, 2007

The production manager of the March Metal Day festival, set to take place April 4 at the Fencing Olympic Complex at Hellinicon in Athens, Greece, has revealed to the "Metalzone" radio show that MANOWAR will perform its song "Black Wind, Fire & Steel" in Greek at this year's event. MANOWAR will play a two-and-a-half-hour set at the festival, which will include additional appearances by RHAPSODY OF FIRE, HOLLYHELL, TIAMAT and EPICA, among others.

In other news, all technical issues surrounding MANOWAR's upcoming appearance in Russia have been resolved, allowing MANOWAR to perform in Moscow on Saturday, April 7, as previously announced. A video message from MANOWAR bassist Joey DeMaio regarding the Russian concert can be viewed at this location.

On March 23, 2007, MANOWAR received a gold award for German sales in excess of 25,000 copies of its DVD "Fire and Blood". Steamhammer/SPV presented the award to the members of MANOWAR at the Westfallenhalle in Dortmund during the German leg of the group's "Demons, Dragons & Warriors 2007".

MANOWAR's video for the song "Die for Metal" has been posted online at YouTube. Portions of the clip were filmed on February 24, 2007 in Bochum, Germany, during the release party for the band's new album, "Gods of War". Besides the fans, the video stars well-known German actor Tim Sander.

"Die for Metal" comes off MANOWAR's tenth full-length album, "Gods of War", which was released on February 23 in Germany (February 26 for the rest of Europe and April 3 for the USA/Canada).
