On June 27 via Nuclear Blast Germany, two new HAMMERFALL releases will see the light of day: a DVD - continuing chronicling the band's career - and a cover CD - a collection of all the covers recorded by HF to date plus three new, unreleased ones. Incidentally, this will be guitarist Stefan Elmgren's last release with HammerFall. Detailed information follows:

Rebels With A Cause - Unruly, Unrestrained, Uninhibited (DVD): "The DVD will be a continuation of the previous two (The First Crusade and The Templar/Renegade Crusades) and contain newly recorded interviews with the band interspersed with footage from their own cameras. The time span is six years, from the beginning of 2002 til the end of 2007, and it's edited together as a documentary of sorts, i.e. one continuous film, but of course with chapters. Also included will be all six promo videos made during the time in question plus some behind the scenes, four professionally filmed live songs from Filderstadt 2005, five TV clips they have purchased the rights to from SVT (the Swedish national television network) and some more home-made stuff as bonus. The complete running time is estimated to 1h 30-1h 45 plus 1h 15-1h 30."
