Nearly one year has passed since Israeli thrash metal act Hammercult ,who moved to Berlin last year, released their third album Built For War. One year during where not only the whole world but also the international metal scene have changed. Hammercult have stayed abreast of those changes: more than ever before, the band impressed with their broad stylistic range, increasingly allowing – along with their unmistakable strengths – influences from the punk, hardcore and traditional heavy metal genres. The result was a true, intoxicating thrash metal manifesto with an inescapable knock-on effect.

Now they show their influences with unique cover versions of songs by Accept, Motörhead, Running Wild, Slayer and GG Allin. To give the fans as much as possible for their money they also put three of their signature songs on the digipak and LP version. The provoking artwork was created by Andreas Marshall, famous for his works for Kreator, Sodom and Blind Guardian.

Hammercult’s Legends Never Die EP will be out via Steamhammer/SPV on June 17th as a digipak version, limited LP version and download.
