1) Battleroar is a traditional epic metal band formed in Athens in September 2000. The roots of the band's style sink deep into the sound of legendary 80s American and European bands such as Manilla Road, Omen, Cirith Ungol, Brocas Helm, Manowar, Jag Panzer and Heavy Load. The band's name was in fact taken from the lyrics to Heavy Load's song "Singing Swords" ("I loved the battleroar").Their third album 'To Death and Beyond' was released in 2008 and received excellent reviews worldwide. In 2009 guitar player Manolis Karazeris and vocalist Marco Concoreggi were replaced by Stelios Sovolos on guitar and John Papanikolaou (ex Innerwish!) on vocals. The new line-up already played some shows in Holland and Greece and is currently working on a new album. For more, visit the Official Battleroar facebook Page.
