Polisen fick väl aldrig tag på killen som slog Cans i huvudet med ett ölglas?

har en review av "Glory To The Brave" och som vanligt kör vi ett inklipp:
Citat:
Although there are influences from bands such as Manowar, Warlord, Judas Priest, Accept, Helloween, from a musical perspective, the album as we’ve said before has its own character. Full of melodies, sharp riffs and solos that all have their own identity, Hammerfall fused our favorite bands in a unique way. Drums that give the appropriate volume to the record, vocals that make us kneel down by in the atmosphere, the melodicity and melancholy, and on the other hand they get you excited with the high notes, the ravaging playing and the catchy refrains. 20 years have passed… It became a record where all the new groups of the genre, stop and pay their respects for its creation. Throughout the band’s course, there have been highly acclaimed records, but no one has reached the magnitude of the “Glory to the Brave” … the record has not been surpassed. No one has been able to get the feel of ‘I Believe’ and the title-track’s. No one was able to reach the raciness of ‘The Dragon Lies Bleeding’, ‘Unchained’, ‘The Metal Age’, ‘Steel Meets Steel’, and, of course, of the ultimate cover of Warlord’s ‘Child of the Damned’! Hector stands there, the same, imperious even after 20 years when I look at the album, as if not even one day has passed.
It was June 27th, 1997 when Hammerfall made history.
Får lov att instämma med slutsatsen om att det är bästa plattan i deras diskografi.
