HammerFall taking 2013 off

 

In the midst of celebrating their 15th anniversary of the album Glory To The Brave and the subsequent taking of the metal world by storm, the band has announced that they will take an extended break immediately following the festivals this summer.

 

“It has been an unbelievable first 15 years, to say the least”, says guitarist Oscar Dronjak, “and now we are taking a pause to ensure that we have another 15 years ahead of us.”

 

There will be no HammerFall activities in 2013, but the band promises to return strong the next year. “The plan is to use the year off to recharge our batteries and come back more vital than ever with a new album in 2014″, explains singer Joacim Cans.

I think it's about time to call it quit ?

[Dead Planet]

I think a break is a good idea...they need to recharge and hopefully they will come back with a strong release...

What a loss to humanity!!!

After their abysmal last album they should castrate themselves.

 

I loved this band early on and I'm still a fan as they play solid but cheesy heavy metal and was doing it when it was far out of fashion but they need to come up with the goods on the next release so maybe some time away would be good.
