Izingoma zaleli qembu zisathakaselwa ngabalandeli kuze kube yimanje.
Iyiphi impumelelo eyandulelayo?
Ngo-1993, isigingci u-Oskar Dronjak wahlangana nozakwabo uJesper Strömblad. Abaculi, beshiya amaqembu abo, bakha iphrojekthi entsha, i-HammerFall.
Nokho, ngamunye wabo wayenelinye iqembu, futhi iqembu HammerFall ekuqaleni lahlala iphrojekthi "eceleni". Izinhlelo zabafana kwakuwukuzilolongela izikhathi eziningana ngonyaka ukuze zibambe iqhaza emikhosini ethile yendawo.
Nokho, ukwakheka kweqembu kwaba njalo - ngaphezu Dronjak futhi Strömblad, bassist Johan Larsson, guitarist Niklas Sundin kanye nomculi oholayo Mikael Stanne wajoyina.
Kamuva, u-Niklas noJohan balishiya iqembu, futhi izindawo zabo zaya kuGlenn Lyngström noFredrik Larsson. Ngokuhamba kwesikhathi, umculi wabuye washintsha - esikhundleni sikaMichael waba nguJoakim Kans.
Ekuqaleni iqembu lenze izinguqulo zekhava zamahithi adumile. Ngo-1996, abafana bafinyelela kowandulela owamanqamu emncintiswaneni womculo waseSweden Rockslager. Iqembu le-HammerFall lenze ngempumelelo kakhulu, kodwa ijaji alizange libavumele ukuba babambe iqhaza kowamanqamu. Nokho, abaculi abazange baphatheke kabi kakhulu, ngoba yonke into yayisanda kuqala kubo.
Ukuqala "kokuphromotha" okujulile kwe-Hammerfall
Ngemva kwalo mncintiswano, abaculi banquma ukuthuthukisa iphrojekthi yabo ngokuqhubekayo futhi banikeza inguqulo yabo yedemo kulebula elidumile le-Dutch Vic Records. Lokhu kwalandelwa ukusayinwa kwenkontileka necwecwe lokuqala elithi, Glory to the Brave, umsebenzi owaqhubeka unyaka wonke.
Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-disc yayinezingoma zoqobo, kwakukhona inguqulo yekhava eyodwa kuphela. E-Holland i-albhamu yaba yimpumelelo kakhulu. Futhi esembozweni se-albhamu uphawu lweqembu - paladin Hector.
U-Oskar Dronjak no-Joakim Kans bashintshe ngokuphelele emisebenzini yeqembu le-HammerFall, abanye bathathelwa indawo uPatrick Rafling no-Elmgren. UFredrik Larsson wahlala isikhathi eside eqenjini, kodwa esikhundleni sakhe uMagnus Rosen waba umshayi webhesi.
I-HammerFall ngaphansi kwelebula entsha
Ngo-1997, ibhendi yahehwa ilebula yaseJalimane i-Nuclear Blast futhi kwaqala “ukuphromotha” okuphelele - kwethulwa izingoma ezintsha neziqeshana zevidiyo.
Le phrojekthi iphumelele kakhulu, abalandeli bensimbi enzima bajabule ngebhendi ye-HammerFall, abezindaba banikeze ukubuyekezwa okujabulisayo, futhi iqembu lathatha indawo yama-38 kumashadi aseJalimane. Alikho ibhande lensimbi elake lafinyelela ubude obunjalo ngaphambili. Iqembu ngaso leso sikhathi laba i-headline, yonke imidlalo yadayiswa.
Ekwindla ka-1998, kwakhululwa i-albhamu elandelayo yeqembu, iLegasy of Kings, abasebenze kuyo izinyanga ezingu-9. Ngaphezu kwalokho, u-Oscar, uJoakim no-Esper, ababengasekho eqenjini elikhulu, baba nengxenye kulo msebenzi.
Khona-ke abaculi bahambela amakhonsathi amaningana abalulekile futhi bahamba nohambo olukhulu emhlabeni jikelele. Bemukelwa ngokufudumele yonke indawo, kodwa hhayi ngaphandle kwezinkinga.
UKans wangenwa uhlobo oluthile lwesifo esithathelwanayo, futhi ngemva kwakhe, uRosen, yingakho amanye amakhonsathi ahlehliswa. Ekupheleni kohambo, uPatrick Rafling wamemezela ukuthi wayeka ukuhamba okunzima, futhi u-Anders Johansson waba umshayi wesigubhu.
Ama-2000's
Ukuqoshwa kwe-albhamu yesithathu kuhambisane noshintsho kuphrojusa weqembu. KwakunguMichael Wagener (esikhundleni sikaFredrik Nordström). Abezindaba bakuhleka lokhu, kodwa ngokushesha kwadingeka behlise umoya - i-albhamu ethi Renegate, abasebenze kuyo amasonto angu-8, yafinyelela phezulu kumashadi aseSweden.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, ibhendi yahlushwa ezinye izinkinga - isigameko kwelinye lamakilabhu, ngenxa yalokho uKans wathola ukulimala kweso, ukwebiwa kwemali ngumphathi weqembu, futhi u-Oscar wathola ingozi ngesithuthuthu sakhe.
Ngemuva kokukhishwa kwe-albhamu ethi One Crimson Night, iqembu lathatha ikhefu elide, laphinde lavela ngo-2005 nge-albhamu ethi Isahluko V - Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken. Isilinganiso saleli rekhodi sisendaweni yesi-4 phakathi kwama-albhamu kazwelonke.
