* AlternateCharacterInterpretation[=/=]PoesLaw: Much debate has been had about whether they're a StealthParody or SeriousBusiness about everything they do. There seems to be no in-between... but what else would you expect from Manowar?
** If they ARE a StealthParody, they are a VERY [[AffectionateParody affectionate one]]. Their love for the genre and its conventions is undeniable.

* NarmCharm: Well, the band's lyrics ''are'' all about ridiculously over-the-top machismo, and nobody hides it, and nobody pretends to have any deep message in those lyrics either. However, would the band still be Manowar if things were any different? Of course, their songs do go in considerable depth about Norse mythology, and Achiles was noted by one scholar as being a stellar example of ShownTheirWork. Also, Creator/ChristopherLee likes them.
