专辑简介

Country of origin: Sweden Location: Gothenburg, Västra Götaland Status: Active Formed in: 1993 Genre: Heavy/Power Metal Themes: Medieval battles, Fantasy, Templar Knights Current label: Nuclear Blast Years active: 1993-present After quitting Ceremonial Oath, Oscar Dronjak and Jesper Strömblad formed HammerFall with Niklas Sundin and Mikael Stanne, both of whom are members of Dark Tranquillity. However, because they were all involved in other bands, HammerFall was relegated as a side-project for several years; their shows were mostly limited to a reoccurring local music contest, Rockslaget. In 1996, HammerFall reached the semi-finals of Rockslaget. Since vocalist Mikael Stanne was not going to be able to perform with the band in the semi-finals, through mutual friends, they got in contact with Joacim Cans, who agreed to play with them for the night. The concert was a success, despite the fact that the judges didn\’t qualify HammerFall for the finals. By the end of that day, Joacim had already been made an official member of the band. In early 1997, German label Nuclear Blast approached HammerFall with a contract for a European release deal, which included four albums. Towards the end of 1997, \”Glory to the Brave\” was released in Japan and the United States. Sales of the album reached one hundred thousand copies. HammerFall was also nominated for the Swedish Grammy award in the Best Hard Rock act category. Their first world tour took place in October 1998, after the release of \”Legacy of Kings\”. During the shows in Sweden, Joacim Cans caught a serious throat infection which made it impossible for him to sing. Shortly afterward, Magnus Rosén was afflicted with the same disease, and after him the whole of HammerFall\’s support crew became sick. The members of the band played for as long as possible and then were forced to postpone or cancel a few dates.
