HAMMERFALL Working On 'Wide Range of Songs' For New Album

April 7, 2006

HAMMERFALL guitarist Oscar Dronjak has posted the following message on his blog:

"Spring is late in coming this year, more snow today. Unbelievable! Makes you a bit lazy, I have to admit. In fact, that's what I have been songwriting-wise for the past few weeks, not much has happened.

"This is where we stand at the moment: Seven songs for the new album are all but finished on my part, Joacim [Cans, vocals] is hard at work on the five he has gotten from me so far. Stefan [Elmgren, guitar] has been involved in two of these seven songs, writing most of one completely by himself (a first for a track with vocals). We have a wide range of songs this time around as well, and I have a very good feeling about the material so far. And since the recordings will commence in a just over two months, that is a comforting feeling to have, let me tell you!"

HAMMERFALL's latest album, "Chapter V: Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken", was released in March 2005 via Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2002's "Crimson Thunder" was produced and mixed by Charlie Bauernfeind (BLIND GUARDIAN, HELLOWEEN).
