I saw them live with Dio a couple of years back and both guitarists had Randall amps. They were very entertaining! I'm not real big into metal like that, but they were cool!

 

Chris, you have to get those two songs - Blood Bound and Hearts of Fire. Totally rules!!!

 

Metal to the hilt!

On some of their songs I can hear the Engl Savage clear as day ( I own that amp) but on others its a little more gritty with more dirt on the preamp attack.


hmm....

Go to http://www.hammerfall.net/main.html

 

and go on the album Chapter V: Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken

 

The song never ever is there and you can listen to the sample.

You are correct sir! That's definitely the Engl Savage you're hearing.

 

BTW Long time no speak bro... How have you been? :D

 

Hammerfall is definitely on of my favorite power metal bands. I've been wanting to get my hands on their new CD "Chapter V:" for some time. Legacy of Kings is my current favorite.

 

Let the Hammer fall! :cool:

Definitely ENGLs, downloaded a video of them playing Blood Bound on Swedish TV and there were indeed ENGLs in the background. Can't remember which ones, but my guess is Savage.

 

BTW, check out (Hammerfall guitarist) Stefan Elmgren's Full Strike - We Will Rise album. Really good power metal, with some of the best guitar tones I've heard in a while.

I dont have any albums, just a compilation of sorts that a couple of Swedish guys gave me.

 

Thats sweet tone on that song, but Im not convinced its Engl.

Hi Wiz!

 

Ive been away, taking a break, working hard. Im alright but all this work is getting me down a little. Still, my problems are fairly insignificant, relatively speaking.

 

Hope things are well with you sir!

Shame you can't come to musikmesse Mike - maybe we can organise another ampfest sometime

 

Hi Mark!

 

Yeah, pity, but neither funds nor time is on my side right now. Looks like Im missing a blast!

I hope you all have a lot of fun!

One of my roommates is really into Hammerfall (it was the first power metal band he got into). I think they're okay, but they're not a band I can listen to regularly. The Legacy Of Kings album is okay, but their slower songs really get on my nerves. I like tracks like "Dreamland"

 

I guess in general I like fast power metal instead of the slow ballad-y stuff.

That was the Killing the Dragon Tour , right Chris? I saw them on that as well with Kings X, Great performances form every band that night. That was also the night that they recorded the Dio DVD. Great show!!!!

 

Power metal rules!!!!

A lot of people here in Sweden bash this band like you wouldn't believe. I like them though, a great example of powermetal with good, reasonably simple guitarplaying and a really beefy/powerfull tone. What they do, they do very well i.m.o.
