Hammerfall Release New Album Trailer

The second trailer for (r)Evolution, the ninth studio album by Swedish heavy metallers HAMMERFALL, is now available for viewing below.

(r)Evolution – called “the essence of HAMMERFALL at its very purist” by guitarist, songwriter, and founding member Oscar Dronjak - is due out in North America on September 2nd. The album was produced by Fredrik Nordström (DIMMU BORGIR, SOILWORK, OPETH), who also helped produce the first two HAMMERFALL albums, 1997’s Glory To The Brave and 1998’s Legacy Of Kings.

According to Dronjak, the new album title "comes from the second remake of the Planet Of The Apes movie, 'Rise of…' In Swedish, it was called 'Apornas Planet: (r)Evolution,' and the name stuck with me ever since I saw (and loved!) the movie. It seems like a fitting title for this album: We've taken everything that makes HAMMERFALL HAMMERFALL and evolved it."
