The “United Forces Tour” 2022 called alliance is not only the full HELLOWEEN experience, on top the fans will enjoy fine Swedish steel out of the HAMMERFALL forge. Both bands had brand-new albums in their luggage and the Luxembourgish fans were able to listen to the new songs live for the very first time on the “United Forces Tour” 2022.
Hammerfall
HAMMERFALL is a Swedish Power Metal band from Gothenburg. The band was formed in 1993 by ex-CEREMONIAL OATH guitarist Oscar Dronjak. The band name is taken from the song ‘Lucifer’s Hammer’ by the US band WARLORD, which contains the lyric line “The hammer will fall on you!”. HAMMERFALL’s style has been influenced by the heavy metal of the 1980s, with the influence of HELLOWEEN being particularly noticeable. Others see parallels to JUDAS PRIEST, MANOWAR and ACCEPT in their music. To show their roots, some tracks have also been recorded for tribute albums by HELLOWEEN, DIO and TWISTED SISTER.
