| Heavy/Power Metal Formed in Göteborg, Sweden, in 1993 by guitarist Oscar Dronjak. Early line-ups included members from In Flames and Dark Tranquillity, most notably Jesper Strömblad, who continued to write songs together with Oscar and singer Joacim Cans despite leaving before the first album was released. "Glory To The Brave" (1997) and "Legacy Of Kings" (1998) cemented the band as the pioneers of modern Eighties heavy metal. Often credited with bringing back the melodies and honesty in music, the world-wide crusade continued with "Renegade" (2000), an album that generated a breakthrough for HammerFall and metal music in general in the mainstream media in Sweden. The line-up was now complete with drummer Anders Johansson, formerly of Rising Force fame, Stefan Elmgren on guitar and Magnus Rosén on bass guitar. The latter two joined HF before the release of the inaugural record, with Stefan even being a session player on "Glory To The Brave". "Crimson Thunder" (2002) was next, followed by a live album and DVD - "One Crimson Night" (2003) - recorded in their home town in front of a capacity crowd. The fifth album, aptly titled "Chapter V: Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken" (2005) further planted the name HammerFall in the minds of households in Sweden, as well as metal fans all over the world. The band's fourth world tour on as many albums was an even bigger success than before, headlining the U.S. for the first time (after supporting Death and Dio in 1998 and 2002 respectively). Two sportsrelated videos were recorded in 2006, a remake of "Hearts On Fire" for the Swedish Olympic Women's Curling Team and a brand new song specifically written for Kajsa Bergqvist and a couple of other Swedish track & field superstars, culminating in a performance at the opening ceremony at the European Athletics Championships in August, bringing HammerFall into the home of 250 million people around the world. Threshold (2006) saw the light of day at the end of the year, and virtually the entire 2007 was spent on the road promoting it. Magnus Rosén left the band in March. Without skipping a beat, original basist Fredrik Larsson was brought back into the fold, elevating the musical side with his steady brilliance. Celebrating its ten year anniversary as a record-releasing artist, HammerFall released "Steel Meets Steel - Ten Years of Glory" (2007). The album features two brand new tracks, a re-recording of an old classic plus some bonus material for the true fans. Surprising to all, Stefan got a job as an airline pilot in the spring of 2008, and after careful consideration decided to pursue that dream instead. Pontus Norgren of The Poodles fame replaced Stefan and made his on stage debut with the band at the Heavy MTL Festival in Montréal, Canada. Sometimes hailed as the leaders of the new heavy metal movement, "the new and improved" HF is currently working on a new studio album, scheduled for release on February 20th, 2009. © Официальный сайт Joacim Cans - вокал Oscar Dronjak - ритм гитара Pontus Norgren - лид гитара Fredrik Larsson - бас Anders Johansson - ударные Демо, синглы, ЕП: 1997 - Glory To The Brave (EP) 1998 - Heeding The Call (EP) 1999 - I Want Out (EP) 2000 - Renegade (Single) 2001 - Always Will Be (Single) 2002 - Crimson Thunder (Single) 2002 - Hearts On Fire (Single) 2005 - Blood Bound (Single) 2006 - The Fire Burns Forever (Single) 2006 - Natural High (Single) 2007 - Last Man Standing (Single) 2009 - Any Means Necessary (Single) Полноформатные альбомы: 1997 - Glory To The Brave 1998 - Legacy Of Kings 2000 - Renegade 2002 - Crimson Thunder 2005 - Chapter V : Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken 2006 - Threshold 2009 - No Sacrifice, No Victory Компиляции: 2007 - Steel Meets Steel: 10 Years of Glory 2008 - Masterpieces DVD: 1999 - The First Crusade 2002 - The Templar Renegade Crusades 2002 - Hearts On Fire 2003 - One Crimson Night 2008 - Rebels With A Cause - Unruly, Unrestrained, Uninhibited MySpace 1997 - Glory To The Brave ifolder part 1 ifolder part 2 Links by Rodriga 1998 - Legacy Of Kings ifolder part 1 ifolder part 2 Links by Rodriga 2000 - Renegade ifolder part 1 ifolder part 2 Links by Rodriga 2002 - Crimson Thunder ifolder part 1 ifolder part 2 Links by Rodriga 2005 - Chapter V : Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken ifolder part 1 ifolder part 2 Links by Rodriga 2006 - Threshold rapidshare.com Link by PhePe71 2009 - No Sacrifice, No Victory rapidshare.com Link by oculthan Официальный сайт |

Так что танком по твоей рецензии проходиться не буду. 
Абсолютно согласен. С дебютника вспомню ещё медляк "Glory to the brave" - тоже можно отнести к балладам. Но эту вещь, думаю, они уже никогда не превзойдут. Это как раз та самая песня, которую удается написать всего раз в жизни.
