Description:

The classic 4th album by the Swedish orthodox heavy metal band Hammerfall is re-released in a huge 3-CD set to celebrate their 20th anniversary! In addition to the remixed and remastered version by master Fredrik Nordström, the album also includes a large number of previously unreleased takes from pre-production and live performances. Includes Japanese language commentary, lyrics, and bilingual liner notes】Hammerfall is one of Sweden's leading orthodox heavy metal bands. The band's formation dates back to 1993. Originally, Hammerfall started as a side project of Oscar Doronjak and Jesper Strømblad of In Flames (both of whom were in a death metal band called Ceremonial Oath), but in 1996, the current vocalist Joakim Kans joined the band. Joakim Kansu joined the band in 1996. In 1997, Hammerfall made their album debut with "Glory to the Brave". In the Swedish metal scene at that time, which was almost exclusively extreme metal, the appearance of Hammerfall, who played good old-fashioned heavy metal, was a fresh surprise.They led the restoration of orthodox heavy metal in the Swedish and international metal scene. The 20th anniversary edition of "Crimson Thunder," Hammerfall's fourth album from 2002, is now being released. This album became a platinum disc in Sweden, the home country of Hammerfall. The 20th anniversary edition of the album is a special 3-CD set, which is a huge volume. The main album has been remixed and remastered by master Fredrik Nordstrom, allowing the listener to experience this classic album again in a very powerful and clear sound image. The bonus disc is packed with previously unreleased pre-production takes, live performances, and more, making this an album that can be enjoyed by fans who have not yet experienced it, as well as by enthusiasts who have already listened to it. We hope you will take this opportunity to (re)experience the world of Hammerfall.[Members] Joakim Kans (vocals)Oscar Doronyak (guitar)Pontus Norgren (guitar)Fredrik Larsson (bass)David Wallin (drums)
