"Hammerfall is an awsome metal band - blending the typical power metal fantasy topics with some speed metal as well - doesn't that go for a lot of power metal bands? Well, this is a must have for power metal fans. If you can, get the Nuclear Blast deluxe edition with a bonus track and a few extra media on it. I really recomment this CD.
If you're into Hammerfall, you might wanna check out Blind Guardian, Dragonforce, and Manowar."

"I ordered this album, and received the Deluxe Edition (a nice bonus!) It includes the bonus track "Ravenlord" which is a great song, and enhanced features: the music video of Glory To The Brave and desktop wallpaper. Maybe I just lucked out in getting it. Regardless of Deluxe or not, this album is great. It definitely grew on me as well, so give it some time (especially if you're new to power metal). I also strongly recommend Legacy of Kings.
Also, "Child of the Damned" is actually a cover song! (something most fans don't know). The original was recorded by an obscure band named "Warlord." Check them out, they're very cool. They, along with bands like Helloween were big influences on HammerFall.
Let The Hammer Fall!"
