Finally, the new album from Swedish power metal group Hammerfall is OUT!
“Crimson Thunder” follows the recipe of the previous albums in that it contains one cover ( “Angel Of Mercy” ), one ballad ( “Dreams Come True” ), one instrumental track ( “In Memoriam/Requiem” ) and the rest are fast paced metal songs. It’s a winning concept if you ask me.

Hammerfall are back and this time they are even better than last time (if that is even possible). More certain of themselves somehow, more in tune on the powerful choruses, more focused, more determined .. simply more Hammerfall.

People have been yelling “sellout” for as long as I can remember, but it simply isn’t true. Hammerfall are still faithful to the metal music that they play and you know what they say .. “a metal heart is hard to tear apart”.
