Steadfast Heavy Power Metal in the name of the mighty Hammer King!
Hammer King continue to prove themselves as an unstoppable force in the German Heavy and Power Metal world, since bursting onto the scene in 2015 and most recently, the success of their 2021 full length album, Hammer King. Under the banner of the mighty Hammer King himself – the band around former Ross The Boss singer Titan Fox delivers their new studio album, Kingdemonium, out August 19, 2022 via Napalm Records!
Hammer King continues to keep it heavy with speedy riffs, energetic grooves and fist-pumping choruses, devoting their existence once again to the myth of the godly Hammer King – a holy feast for fans of genre giants like Powerwolf, Manowar or HammerFall. Armed with new twin lead guitars and a new bass player, the album picks up where the self-titled album Hammer King left off, but offers a more critical and sinister side of things. Only 14 months after the release of their last album, Hammer King deliver another strong release while showcasing a different side of their self-created fantasy world full of perfectly intonated tales and stories.
Kingdemonium highlights the core essence of Hammer King and fully reflects on the strengths of the band. The album starts off with “Invisible King”. The title track, “Kingdemonium”, is pure power from the first tune and goes all the way with thundering drums, riffs made of steel, and energetic vocals. Followed by “The Four Horsemen”, starting off slower, the track quickly picks up the pace mid-journey through the world of the Hammer King. “Guardians of the Realm (featuring Ross The Boss)”, stands out from the rest of the songs with the vigorous vocals riddled with acoustic guitar elements, while “Live Long, Die Nasty” is a future live hit that will have all crowds screaming along immediately. An album made of pure steel in the name of the Hammer King!
