HAMMER KING To Release New Album In August; “Make Metal Royal Again” Single / Video Available
"... Germany’s heavy/power metal kings, Hammer King, present “Make Metal Royal Again”, the first single and epic music video for their upcoming album, which will be released worldwide on August 15 via Reaper Entertainment.
The title track not only gives the new album its name, but is also a musical manifesto, band credo and royal statement all in one: “Make Metal Royal Again” combines powerful riffs, anthemic melodies and a hook line that immediately sticks – carried by the uncompromising groove and unbridled energy of newcomer Count Shandorian on drums....
The band comments on the song:
‘Make Metal Royal Again’ – the title track to the album, credo and creed of the band! Hammer King are stepping up to make metal royal again, to bring the glamor and power to the stage. Make Metal Royal Again was an absolute no-brainer in the voting for the first single. The power of Count Shandorian on drums combined with an addictive chorus and a sound that honors the ’80s. We can’t wait to finally play this song live and share it with you all. Let’s Make Metal Royal Again!
The new album Make Metal Royal Again will be released on August 15, 2025 and contains ten brand new tracks as well as an exclusive bonus track on the limited digipak edition. The album is now available for pre-order in the brand new band store on CD, vinyl and as a limited boxset edition here...."
