I am not surprised this powermetal crap is so popular in Germany btw, as it musically really resembles schlager/volksmusik. If you know what I'm talking about. Seriously. jesus, this music is the reason why I sometimes hesitate telling people I love metal.

The big acts are continuing on due to the fact that they tour a great deal thereby keeping their name out their. Who knows where Manowar might have been had they done the same.
