HammerFall release new song ‘Venerate Me’

HAMMERFALL have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Venerate Me, is taken from the Swedish power metal band’s upcoming new album, Hammer Of Dawn, which is scheduled to be released next month. The new song features a guest appearance from the legendary KING DIAMOND.

Speaking about the new song, founding member and guitarist Oscar Dronjak says, “the second single is here, and I’m very, very proud of it! The music was written during the darkest, most uninspiring days of the pandemic and still came out as one of the strongest on the whole album. Joacim’s fantastic lyric idea makes this track really stand out, and the special guest appearance towards the end really pushes it over the edge!”

Vocalist Joacim Cans adds, “the song is over loaded with enchanting melodies and a very catchy chorus. Lyrically one of my greatest efforts dealing with the fact that we die twice! First when we take our last breath and second when someone says your name for the last time. Say my name and I will never die!”

Hammer of Dawn is set for release on February 25th via Napalm Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here. The band will tour mainland Europe and the UK with HELLOWEEN later this year, check out the tour dates here!
