Yes, the mighty Hammerfall, by some seen as the 'saviours of heavy metal' and by others as the 'lords of power metal', have just announce the title, tracklist and artwork for their upcoming album. Titled 'Build To Last', this will be Hammerfall's tenth studio album and as usual it stands for powerful, majestic and melodic heavy metal. The album will be released by Napalm Records, on 4th November.
Guitarist Oscar Dronjak comments: "Built To Last is our 10th studio album in 19 years, incredibly enough, but I think we sound more alive and vibrant than ever before! We have worked our asses off to make sure this album is a worthy successor to (r)Evolution, and I have no doubt in my mind that we have created one of the strongest records we have ever done. I am immensely proud and excited about this album, and I am confident all our Templars of Steel will agree once they hear it in November."
