@@arontuske9348 Pfft, come over here in Québec, Canada, where the choice is either top 40 pop songs, or our own local music, curated and selected by our out of touch local industry. You'd think we're in the 1980s with all the damn ballads that make you want to slit your wrists... EDIT: We have an awesome underground metal scene...but the bands never take off in the mainstream...even though you find metal fans everywhere
@@MrPobanz No, it was actually BAAAAD. And they fortunately realized that immediately and got back to what they do best. Something like St.Anger from Metallica. And I'm a diehard Metallica fan.
Some of my favs from them:at the end of the rainbow,glory to the brave,secrets,Bushido,templars flame,natural high,hammer high,Hector's hymn...I fucking swear hammerfall is the best power metal band to ever exist.as much I enjoy iced earth and sabaton hammerfall is the music the gods.love live the legend's
Sweden 🇸🇪 has and still is a producer of some of the greatest Hard Rock & Metal music in the world. It’s right up there with Germany 🇩🇪. I’m 46 and grew up in the 80’s when Metal was popular and almost every Western nation had great bands. Europe, Treat & Yngwie Malmsteen were the best artists to come out of Sweden 🇸🇪. When Metal started to become less mainstream and for most parts became almost an underground movement again, namely here in the UK 🇬🇧, Sweden 🇸🇪 was one of the nations that continued the Metal tradition and kept the faith. Not like here in the UK 🇬🇧 which developed a love of hip-hop & Brit Pop. I have always followed the Swedish metal scene and when Hammerfall broke out, I was hooked from the first glorious album. For me, they are a true traditional Heavy Metal band. The members are only slightly older than me and their musical inspirations and influences are largely the same bands I grew up with. Well done HAMMMERFALL for still flying the flag of metal. Thanks ! 🙏 👍🏾 🤘
Sweden, we appreciate everything you've done and all the contributions to metal as a whole. You have produced some of the best metal/rock of the last few decades. We all say thanks
if they went in, they wouldn't get good placing since the newer generations can't understand the brilliance of Rock. Most born after 2000 wouldn't vote, since we've HAD great bands in melodifestivalen trying to qualify but sadly we still sent old relics like Carola or some mainstream boring popsong.
I hope these guys never retire. Always make great positive motivation metal music. A lot of bands these days are always about sadness and depression. HammerFall I love because most of their songs is positive, upbeat with a power metal attitude of "Never Give Up. Never Surrender!"
Looking around my playlist, which has more than 2000 musical groups, I can sincerely admit that Swedish rock is the most melodically beautiful and powerful. Hello from Russia! P.S. Amon Amarth - 4:01
3:30 I love that picture, love this music, HammerFall is the heart of a generation. I am grateful for their music, treat them well you guys at Napalm!!!
I grew up listening to HammerFall, I remember rocking in elementary school with my headphones & HammerFall shirt ignoring the world because of you guys! That was long long time ago! Mother of God I remember when I heard ''Hearts on fire'' for the first time, good old times! After all these years, I'm still loving you guys! So freaking epic band! Much love from Croatia!!
Escuchando hammerfall desde que tenia 17 años y ahora tengo 29 y aun los sigo lo mejor del power metal ojalá vengan a chile porque ya estoy juntando plata!
well geez. 8am here. I woke up in a bit of a funk because of a dream I had that got me thinking about some things in the past. I sit down with my coffee and click the first video in my subs list that I could watch in time before having to leave... and you guys really brightened me up. Seeing all the old photos here changed my mindset about what was bugging me. Thanks.
Awesome! A great song and video honoring all the Swedish bands that have shaped metal music and have made Sweden such an important player in the scene! Congrats guys, cannot wait for the album!
this video means so much to me because I have been a long supporter of Swedish metal of all genres. I have the upmost respect for Hammerfall for this song and video \m/ almost 30 plus years flash before my eyes when I watch this video and I will be 44 on August 3
"SWEDEN ROCK 🎵 Song🎶" ...(AWESOME TRIBUTE ) for the SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL SÖLVESBORG 2019 JUST GONE...AMAZING LEGENDARY LIST OF BAND ON THE SWEDEN ROCK ...HAMMERFALL ROCKS👊👌🤙👍👏🎶🎵❗
I remember the day when the winter came Back in nineteen-sixty-nine With hearts made of stone, they paved A solid one way to glory The roar from the north shook the universe Right out of its solitude The sign of the times, they said As we praised the birth of our story The power inside, our source of creation Far beyond the sun they hear our singing swords Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Bringing the hammer down Three are the crowns in our banner They were breaking the chains long before the storm Play Judas, to get along The traitors and renegades Smoldered the soil of our fathers Now lay down your guns raise the hammers high Together we are one A true life worth fighting for 'Cause this ain't no dying illusion A call from the grave where flames are eternal In the land of fog and mist we carry on Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Bringing the hammer down Three are the crowns in our banner Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Sons of the northern light Forever let your strings cry out Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock (We Make) Bringing the hammer down Three are the crowns in our banner Sweden Rock (We Make) Sweden Rock Sons of the northern light Forever let your strings cry out We make sweden rock
If any country's metal scene deserves a "You know what? We're pretty fucking awesome!" song, it's Sweden. I've always said that if you want great music, look no further than Sweden. Always a consistent level of musicianship and songcraft coming from there. Hail!
Nice to see all those Sweden heroes and the lirics fit the pictures very well. Nice to see NIFELHEIM for exemple, or MESSIAH from MERCY/CANDLEMASS, EUROPE, HEAVY LOAD and a long etc...Super homage to Sweden heroes. HAIL TO HAMMERFALL FOREVER. buy or die.
El tema Dominion era bueno pero es que con este se me saltan las lagrimas. Imposible estarse quieto. Gracias por este maravilloso disco. AMUNT HAMMERFALL
@@Williezhue And why's that ? For ME the best metal in the world comes from Sweden cause I absolutely love death/melodic death and black metal. Finland, Germany and Norway have fantastic metal too. And US for me what really matters in old school death and thrash
@@KreshDraven6 So we're both commenting from behind our own taste. Older metal was more 'discreet' I guess, just like this song is. And what comes to US, half of them seem to be insane and they like to scream alot. At least those more on the surface.
You, guys ,metall musicians, are HEROES!!!!!!! BEST - ALL OF YOU, SCANDINAVIANS, GERMANS ,ENGLISH!!!!! IN THIS WORLD OF DARKNESS AND UGLINESS -YOU ARE BRIGHT 🌞 LIGHT OF HOPE OF VICTORY. GOD BLESS YOU, BOYS. 💕💕💕💕
@@gipsysidney5737 First time i listened to them, i fell in love (it was At The End of The Rainbow). I didnt really knew that this was metal, i just liked it af. After couple months, manowar finished me and i become "metalhead"
@@sharkhardware My 1st one was Hearts on Fire. It was kinda forced experience. Back in those days i enjoyed Dream Trance and Piano Solos(Philip Wesley - Dark Night of the Soul for example) and i was also one of those people who think metal is notbing but scream and noise. But Hamerfall really made me reconsider.
@@gipsysidney5737 Ye, i were thinking that metal is something satanic (Back in the days, when i was religios), but something changed my mind :D Wirtshaus gaudi by EQUILIBRIUM. Black metal about beer, yeah, this was cool :D
