I have been a Hammerfall fan for over a decade. My journey into power metal began with Legacy of Kings, and maybe the standard was set too high. Threshold seems to exist in a world that is quickly becoming polished, tame, and boring, which occasionally hearkens back to the days of power metal glory. Beowulf is dead, the afterglow of victory is gone, and life has become routine. That's what this album feels like at the crux, much like an annual celebration to re-tell the glorious tale, and all the ...

Modern metal done in the classic style of Manowar,Judist Priest, Scorpions,Saxon,Deep Purple, etc. What more could you ask for.

These Swedish power-metallers are not quite as fast as Helloween, not quite as loud as Manowar, not quite as spaced-out as Gamma Ray, and not quite as bizarre as the Dungeons & Dragon themed fair (or is it Lord of the Rings now?). However, Threshold is the perfect balance of thunderous drums, monstrous guitars, enduring melodies, and powerful vocals. This IS power metal!

When I picked up this new CD, I immediately liked it, but not all of the songs though. The ones I really liked were: Threshold, The Fire Burns Forever, Rebel Inside, Dark Wings, Dark Words, Shadow Empire, Carved In Stone and Genocide. But I had heard that Jocaim had just had plastic surgery done due to an accident, and this CD was qucikly released probably of left over songs, but I still felt that the selection of songs were pretty good.

I've been a fan of HammerFall for about 7 or 8 years now and I have to say that there's nothing too impressive about this album. It's still good power metal, but it sounds very much the same as Chapter V or Crimson Thunder. Personally, I think each of their albums after Renegade have gotten worse...more predictable, very basic drum work, etc. Worth a listen or 2, but nothing that stands out here. If you're interested in this band, stick with getting Glory To The Brave or Legacy Of Kings before ...
