Premettiamo che io non sono uno dei fans piu accaniti dei Manowar, e scrivo anche che questo è l'unico album che apprezzo di questa band statunitense con alle spalle spalle piu di 20 anni di carriera, album che i fans dei kings of metal hanno atteso per 6 lunghi anni. Un album di puro epic metal, 11 tracce, per 1 totale di 46min e 37sec, da sottolineare la quasi comica interpretazione di "Nessun Dorma", niente da togliere all'ottimo Eric Adams ma sicurmente non avrà 1 seguito questa performance canora in lingua italiana, tornando a questo "Warriors Of The World" vi è anche 1 traccia strumentale "Valhalla", 1 canzone che di epic o heavy metal ha ben poco "Fight For Freedom", note di merito vanno all'opener "Call To Arms", l'epica "Sword In The Wind", e la title-track "Warriors Of The World United".
Chiudendo questa mia recensione consiglio questo album a chi apprezza rami del metal quali l'heavy, il power e l'epic,e lo sconsiglio ai fans di antica data dei Manowar, quelli per intenderci che impazziscono per "Into Glory Ride", voto:4, vale l'acquisto.

03 Nessun dorma (03:27)
Nessun dorma, nessun dorma . .
Tu pure, o Principessa,
Nella tua fredda stanza,
Guardi le stelle,
Che tremano d'amore
E di speranza.
Ma il mio mistero e' chiuso in me,
Il nome mio nessun sapra', no, no,
Sulla tua bocca lo diro'
Quando la luce splendera'.
Ed il mio bacio sciogliera' il silenzio
Che ti fa mia.
Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincero!
Vincero!
Vincero!
Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincero!
Vincero!
Vincero!
(IAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)
--- English translation ---
No one sleeps, no one sleeps
Even you, Princess,
In your cold room,
Watch the stars,
that tremble with love
and with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,
My name no one shall know, no, no,
On your mouth I will speak it
When the light shines,
And my kiss will dissolve the silence
That makes you mine.
Vanish, o night!
Set, stars!
Set, stars!
At daybreak I shall conquer!
I shall conquer!
I shall conquer!
06 An American Trilogy (04:19)
Oh I Wish I Was In The Land Of Cotton
Old Times They Are Not Forgotten
Look Away, Look Away, Look Away Dixieland
Oh I Wish I Was In Dixie, Away, Away
In Dixieland I'll Take My Stand
To Live And Die In Dixie
In Dixieland, Where I Was Born
Early Lord One Frosty Morn
Look Away, Look Away, Look Away Dixieland
Glory, Glory Hallelujah
Glory, Glory Hallelujah
Glory, Glory Hallelujah
His Truth Is Marching On
So Hush Little Baby
Don't You Cry
You Know Your Daddy's Bound To Die
But All My Trials Lord Will Soon Be Over
Glory, Glory Hallelujah
His Truth Is Marching On!
His Truth Is Marching On!
09 Hand of Doom (05:43)
Hands of doom are reaching out to crush all infidels who stray
Time to know the pain, no time to run within
And these hands you see before you will end the light of day
Your ashes will be cast into the wind
Your blood's upon the soil, your body fed to wolves
Not one of you will be left alive
Hear the sound pounding and the army of the night
By the hammer of Thor you now shall die
[Chorus:]
Tonight we strike, there is thunder in the sky
Together we'll fight, some of us will die
But they'll always remember that we made a stand
And many will die by my hand
We are high atop the mountain, with hammers in the wind
Lusting for blood and death again
In a flash of lightning strike now the house of death invites you
Body and soul to come within
I see the fear you have inside, you can run but never hide
I will hunt you down and tear you limb from limb
Nothing shall remain, not your memory, your name
It will be as though you never, ever lived
[Repeat chorus, 2nd verse, chorus]

Di korn
La seconda invece è una vera e propria mazzata nello stomacho di puro black metal, una furia da non fermarsi mai da spaccare lo stomacho e il collo a furia di fare headbanging.
Sword of Wing parla della mitologia nordica e della concezione della morte.
Di GASGUIC.
"La title track è monumentale, una delle migliori canzoni in assoluto dei Manowar."
"Se le si riesce a collocare nella quotidianità di oggi, si scopre che hanno una certa attualità."
Di Starblazer
Warriors Of The World rappresenta la definitiva rinascita dei Manowar.
Swords In The Wind è sofferta, magica, epica, battagliera e solenne.
