I have never had a Thor album. But I remember the video..

That song made me smile!
It sounds like it was written by some teenagers who just formed their first band."You got to keep the dogs away..." - my new earworm, and somehow, I'm okay with that. I consider it an instant guilty pleasure!

Thor nowadays; it seems he lost his hammer…

Happily trending in my own peculiar direction.
I had a buddy that was in to weight lifting at the time. I taped the album for him and he used it during his work outs. It worked for him....

He looks like he is feeling a bit Thor these days.
Here's the whole story…
Jon Mikl Thor - Wikipedia
This is so epic in its epicness…
There was a missed opportunity of "Thor Vs Manowar…two bands go in, one band comes out!"
All these failed rocker documentaries are rather sad. The Teenage Head one, the Anil one...
How is that Thor? Using the chains to pull down the temple is a Sampson thing...
Then there's this…
Time to get the lawyers involved. When you have a proprietary shtick, you gotta protect it.

Aside from being cautionary tales, you could take these different ways…are these people pathetic and delusional, or are these docs an examination of never-flagging determination and utter self-belief, no matter how miserable it gets? I suppose as long as there is an audience that might come out to see them, there is justification to continue, no matter how embarrassing it might appear to some people.

I have looked at it both ways.
The Story of Anvil is sad in that they really were a big act and Lips is now a delivery driver. It could have been better had Lips been more business savvy to understand much earlier that they were being mismanaged.
The Teenage Head one was sad in the mental illness aspect and the clinging to past glory, unable to move forward. The story of Hamilton's treatment of Frankie Venom after his death is sad also; he was a person with some demons who none the less was instrumental in the development of a Hamilton music 'scene'.
That three pickup with the jazz pickup at the heel, P pickup in the middle, and wide range humbucker at the bridge looks like an awesome bass.
