HAMMERFALL - Joacim Cans Breaks Down New Album Track-By-Track; Video
August 28, 2014, 10 years ago
In a new interview with Rocksverige.se, Hammerfall singer Joacim Cans breaks down the band's new album, (r)Evolution.
After taking a creative break last year, Hammerfall are fully recharged and back with a vengeance. Entering a new chapter of the Hammerfall success story, (r)Evolution will be out on August 27th in Sweden, the 29th throughout Europe, September 1st in the UK and the 2nd in North America via Nuclear Blast.
The band's new video for "Hector's Hymn", directed by 11Frames Productions, can be seen below:
With (r)Evolution the band takes things back to the roots in many ways, as they once again worked with producer Fredrik Nordström, who helmed their two milestone releases Glory To The Brave and Legacy Of Kings during the band’s early years and thus has taken a major part in the development of Hammerfall. The music was recorded in guitarist Oscar Dronjak’s Castle Black Studios in March and April. Then singer Joacim Cans went to the United States for vocal recordings, once again working with James Michael (Scorpions, Mötley Crüe), who also did a great job on the predecessor, Infected.
