Ridiculous!

The blonde chick looked really enthusiastic to be in the video.

That video was made for the european track and field championship in Gothenburg, Sweden in August this year.

Btw the song is quite good and the video is nowhere near as silly as the curling video

Just last week you said you never lisitined to them? You down load their entire catalogue since then?

Anyways, Hammerfall is Hammerfal, wtf do people expect from this band? They are what they are, commercial sounding 80's Metal, a mix of Dokken Warlcok and Accept with some speedy Helloween parts thrown in. I would personally rate everyone of their albums a 5/10 but still enjoy them......

Where did I say I'd never listened to them? I checked them out ages ago and hated it. I've gone back since then, and although they have some good songs, they still sound C-class to me.

You said you'd hardly heard any of their stuff, but every song you did hear sounded like Sign of the Hammer (so you obviously weren't listening very closely :wink:

lolz. Hammerfall make me laugh. So i buy the cds. and the artwork is kinda cool.

exactly....good point. Fun and silly. Anyone ever hear the Warlord album Caims sang on? I didn't buy just out of respect for early Warlord but I was always curious.

Zad you were asking people for recommendations on Hammerfall then you came here and said you hated all their albums? Maybe I read you wrong.......

The new song is generica defined. :( For some silly reason I had my hopes up for this album. Now they're definitely muted.

They've totally lost all their speed and aggression (limited as it was) and are basically reduced to to replaying inreasingly diluted versions of the same songs over and over.

Well, all of their songs seem to feature hammers or hearts, so... Anyways, Manowar pwn Hammerfall, even that enjoyably rubbish album of theirs that I've got.

The song was ok. The video was pretty lame but better than the curling one. What's up with all the commercials, Acuvue and such?

I was after their best stuff, but even that seems pretty average.
