“El Gringo” from MANOWAR’s 2012 release “The Lord Of Steel” is the theme song for the eponymous action western featuring Scott Adkins (“Expendables 2“, “The Bourne Ultimatum“) and Christian Slater (“Broken Arrow”, “Interview With The Vampire”).
First released in June 2012 as Hammer Edition in collaboration with Metal Hammer UK, “The Lord Of Steel” is blazing with pure power, untamed energy, and a sound as raw and wild as a force of nature. Track titles like “Annihilation” and “Hail, Kill And Die!” set the tone for a record that is packed with surprises.
“…this album is all about brutality and raw power!” explained MANOWAR bassist Joey DeMaio.
Known for their adventurous spirit, MANOWAR tapped into the world of action heroes and their stories for this album, writing their first song for a Hollywood movie, ‘”El Gringo” and another one, “Expendable”, inspired by Sylvester Stallone’s action movie franchise “The Expendables“.
The album “The Lord Of Steel” is also available as retail edition, featuring different versions of the songs, different mixes and master and spectacular new cover art by fantasy artist Ken Kelly.
