Heavy metal

HammerFall is a Heavy metal act. Their sound grew out of Virgin Steele, Manowar, Judas Priest, Alice Cooper and Helloween. Those roots explain a lot about how HammerFall arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Edguy, Freedom Call, Dream Evil, Primal Fear and Helloween, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Sabaton, Primal Fear, Conrad Lant and Beast in Black, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
