Sign of the Hammer captures Manowar at full power, delivering anthemic heavy metal built on soaring vocals, pounding rhythms, and mythic, larger‑than‑life themes. Originally released in 1984, the album blends fantasy‑driven storytelling with raw, muscular performance, featuring some of the band’s most enduring tracks. This European CD reissue/repress from Virgin’s Compact Price series offers a clean, accessible edition of a cult heavy‑metal classic.
