HAMMER FIGHT Completes Work On Debut Album

February 8, 2013

New Jersey-based thrash 'n' roll heathens HAMMER FIGHT have completed work on their full-length debut, entitled "Chug Of War". The follow-up to the band's 2011 self-titled EP was recorded by Bobby Torres at The Machine Shop in Belleville, New Jersey. A release date for the effort has not yet been announced.

"Chug Of War" features new HAMMER FIGHT guitarist Ryan Blackman, who stepped in to replace Rob Guidotti after his departure last fall. Artwork for "Chug Of War" came from a collaboration between HAMMER FIGHT bassist/vocalist Drew Murphy and Buz Hasson, tattoo artist and co-creator of the comic book "The Living Corpse".

HAMMER FIGHT's cover version of IRON MAIDEN's "Be Quick Or Be Dead" can be streamed using the StereoKiller.com widget below. New material from "Chug Of War" will be posted on Monday, February 11.

On April 4, HAMMER FIGHT will kick off its spring 2013 tour, which will take the band out of their native New Jersey and across the Midwest for a string of dates before hooking up with California skate thrash legends PSYCHOSOMATIC for one of the most liver-damaging and ear-splitting packages of 2013.

HAMMER FIGHT is:

Drew Murphy - Bass, Vocals
Ryan Blackman - Guitar
Todd Stern - Guitar
Justin Spaeth - Drums
