The new album ‘Built to Last’ from HammerFall on CD, released 4th November 2016! In times when finest steel was no longer considered the crowning of our beloved genre, Hammerfall came to the rescue and blew everyone away with melodic finesse and sincerity: full length albums such as Glory To The brave (1997) and Renegade (2000) quickly established the Swedes as pioneers of a modern version of classic 80s metal - and they sure haven't slowed down any since! Built To Last - the tenth album in a career spanning nearly twenty years - definitely boasts a programmatic title and brilliantly displays the strengths of the band. Highly melodic and swift anthems, aggressive lead guitars, choruses you'd kill your mother for and Joacim Cans' inimitable, steel-melting voice (recorded once more with James Michael / SIXX AM in L.A.) turn this oeuvre into one of the most consistent, exciting and passionate Hammerfall ever recorded!
