A knight riding a giant hawk to save a damsel in distress by killing evil vampires with a very Mjolnir-like hammer. Ladies and Gentlemen what we have here is the epitome of a power metal video plot.
Indeed. I hear people bitching about it sometimes, like "Power metal is not for me, too many castles, warriors and evil creatures, too much fantasy", BITCH SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GO WATCH AND READ THE LORD OF THE RINGS ALREADY, YOU UNEDUCATED SWINE
Lyrics Last night I had a vivid dream I found a place where nothing's what it seemed I'm bound to walk this earth alone I am a hunter and the heir to the throne The taste of blood and sweet revenge It keeps hammering in my head The urge to kill is getting stronger I'm south of heaven north of hell, my final place to dwell Surrender your soul, surrender your pride Please enter my dream, find your Natural High You got nothing to fear, 'cause your rebirth is near The bat awakens deep inside Nowhere to run for my eternal bride And when the darkness comes around I come alive cause for your sweet blood I am bound I taste your blood, so bittersweet Come ease my pain get on your knees You know true love is meant to be Forever is now what it seems, this is your final scream Surrender your soul, surrender your pride Please enter my dream, find your Natural High You got nothing to fear, 'cause your rebirth is near So you are born again on a far higher plane In my dark Neverland, you're part of the game Forever we are, forever we'll be, we're forever free Solo: Stefan, Oscar Surrender your soul, surrender your pride Please enter my dream, find your Natural High You got nothing to fear, 'cause your rebirth is near
3:28 always makes me laugh. "NOW YOU WILL KNOW THE WRATH OF THE TEMPLAR KING HECTO-HEY! GET OFF MY BACK! SERIOUSLY, I CAN'T REACH! THIS ISN'T FUNNY ANYMORE, GUYS! C'MON!"
I love everything about this. Hammerfall is by far my favorite band of any genre. Gotta say though, as perfect as this video is, the lyrics seem to mean more to me. Who else out there has ever imagined their perfect video for this song?
This song has existed for half of my life now, I'm starting to feel old lol. I still remember listening to this on my ipod (and watching the music video on it too, because we didn't have smartphones back then)
Hell, if you think about it the actors deserved any awards they got. To be able to handle a script THAT BAD with a perfectly straight face takes talent.
En pleno 2023 podré. confirmar nuevamente que Hector es el mejor guerrero de todos los tiempos, un valiente, incorrompible, imparable, implacable, con valentía y con ell poder del martillo nadie lo podrá detener!
C'mon +Nuclear Blast Records. You have this in decent quality in your vaults somewhere. How about uploading it again at 720p in 16:9 so it's not a little low resolution rectangle in the middle of the screen.?
This is not a fair fight, is just a bunch of weakling vampires from the Underworld movies agaisnt a prototype adeptus Astartes with a Lighting Hammer. Just the lighting hammer itself is overkill, a simple chainsaw sword would be more than enough.
you mean Thor right? I mean ... he uses a Hammer .... has armor and the fact that LIGHTNING FUCKING COMES OUT OF THE DAMN HAMMER ITSELF, and I don't know why people goes by what Hollywood tells them how to kill a Vampire and a Lycan is Comedy at best.
I like to think that this video is about Angus McFife III with the Hammer of Glory. Listen to some Gloryhammer if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Dear Nuclear Blast GMBH. can you please upload the song Genocide by Hammerfall, either as a lyrics video (ideally), or just with band photos or album cover. Apparently the only person who had uploaded that song got their TH-cam account terminated, which since i had that song put in a power metal playlist for the purpose of exposing examples of various power metal to people i show the playlist, and Genocide was one of my top picks for Hammerfall, especially considering Hammerfall is between genres and not too many songs are like really super "power metal"ish, but that song is, so i request you kindly upload Genocide sometime in the future if that is alright with you :-)
Inevitibility44737 did I mention anything about the other groups being older? Thing with powermetal bands like dragonforce is that all they know how to play is fast and same tempo . Guys like Hammerfall, blind gaurdian, gamma ray know how to change it up more.
metalhead6777777 Alright. Fair enough. Sorry, but my point was saying that if it falls under the category, it does, even if it's not as good as the competition in the same category. And off topic, but Dragonforce was actually meant to be a joke because these people were praising other guitarists for playing fast and being the best guitarists in the world, so these guys made Dragonforce as a joke to do nothing but play ultra fast to shut them all up.
Inevitibility44737 Thing that I hate about Dragonforce is that all they know is how to play the same tempo and fast every song. Guys like Gamma Ray, Blind Guardian, Hammerfall, they know how to change it up a bit.
I vaguely remember this video having more pixels back in the day...
monitors were also low resolution so our imagination filled in the blanks
Mood xD
Oh ! so isn't only with me
1.Black box
2.Weak sound
3.240p.
Metal fans will still love.
metal fans got used to shitty quality music videos
Not to mention the goofy smacking sounds when Hector swings the hammer XDD
i mean it is 13 years old
Hammerfall really need to do another music video with their warrior in action. That was epic!
"Follow the warrior and the king. Call out Hector's Hymn!"

FallenBassPlayer behold the power of Mjölnir
What more could ya want 😁🤘🤘

That ain't a lie. Same time it can't be denied that it works well for the entertainment for the fans. 😉⚡🤘
Except he didnt save the hoe anyway. Guess he can pick one of the vampire bitches instead?
Lyrics
Last night I had a vivid dream
I found a place where nothing's what it seemed
I'm bound to walk this earth alone
I am a hunter and the heir to the throne
The taste of blood and sweet revenge
It keeps hammering in my head
The urge to kill is getting stronger
I'm south of heaven north of hell, my final place to dwell
Surrender your soul, surrender your pride
Please enter my dream, find your Natural High
You got nothing to fear, 'cause your rebirth is near
The bat awakens deep inside
Nowhere to run for my eternal bride
And when the darkness comes around
I come alive cause for your sweet blood I am bound
I taste your blood, so bittersweet
Come ease my pain get on your knees
You know true love is meant to be
Forever is now what it seems, this is your final scream
Surrender your soul, surrender your pride
Please enter my dream, find your Natural High
You got nothing to fear, 'cause your rebirth is near
So you are born again on a far higher plane
In my dark Neverland, you're part of the game
Forever we are, forever we'll be, we're forever free
Solo: Stefan, Oscar
Surrender your soul, surrender your pride
Please enter my dream, find your Natural High
You got nothing to fear, 'cause your rebirth is near
What does "Come ease my pain get on your knees" mean? o-o
@@orestojanovic8405 lol probably meaning "submission" in this context
15 years felt like yesterday
Jesus, I remember this from when I was really really young and loved the song and video. I never forgot about it. I REMEMBER THE LYRICS lol.
LoveD? Meaning you don't love them anymore? 😢
One of the greatest video clips I have ever seen!!!!!! GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!
I love how dramatically they play their instruments. It's lol and awesome at the same time.
*Favs*
You really only need ONE song when it comes to Hammerfall. I pick this one.
3:28 always makes me laugh. "NOW YOU WILL KNOW THE WRATH OF THE TEMPLAR KING HECTO-HEY! GET OFF MY BACK! SERIOUSLY, I CAN'T REACH! THIS ISN'T FUNNY ANYMORE, GUYS! C'MON!"
LMFAO thank you for the laugh lol.
EPIC MUSIC AND A EPIC BAND
one of the best songs ever x3
This is a greatest song from this album and maybe from HammerFall! I love it!!!
Just... wow. Pretty catchy riffs. Remembers me of their first albums.
Two thumbs up from my part.
Oh and nice video ^^
anders johansson is such an awesome drummer!! he seems solid like a million mountains ! love this song btw, one of hammerfalls best
Why the hell did I not start listening to these guys sooner?
This is the kind of uplifting music I love power metal for.
Hammerfall just kicks ass it is that plain and simple
Hammerfall!!! save the princess!
love this group, enough said
Awesome band , Awesome song \m/ \m/
one of their best songs in my opinion!
one of my favorite songs form hammerfall
one of the best songs by hammerfall and the video is great too
Epic Walk 0:16
I'm usually frowning at twilight comments nowadays as they're quite overused, but you sir, you have won my approval. Here, have a virtual medal.
That was pretty damn awesome. HammerFall is contending with Judas Priest as my favorite band.
quite similar im noticing the more I listen to them! Hammerfall is beyond epic
I love everything about this. Hammerfall is by far my favorite band of any genre. Gotta say though, as perfect as this video is, the lyrics seem to mean more to me. Who else out there has ever imagined their perfect video for this song?
This song has existed for half of my life now, I'm starting to feel old lol. I still remember listening to this on my ipod (and watching the music video on it too, because we didn't have smartphones back then)
Lmao same here. I am re watching this vid and I feel so old xD
Turning 30 makes you feel old, too. Life is short, here's a reminder to enjoy this song again!
We Need More Metal Bands Like These Guys. My Fav Band Of All
This was dark souls a decade before dark souls existed.
It just needs the "you died" text onscreen at that part where the vampire jumps on his back.
the beautiful sound of the hammer...
memories 😭
I love Hector.
the last time i had a vivid dream i needed a couple of minutes to clean up
Hillarious
Still the most badass portrayal of Hector to date
dat "splat" sound effect LOL. love hmmerfall tho.
Hell, if you think about it the actors deserved any awards they got. To be able to handle a script THAT BAD with a perfectly straight face takes talent.
wow, nice quality for a official video xD lol
En pleno 2023 podré. confirmar nuevamente que Hector es el mejor guerrero de todos los tiempos, un valiente, incorrompible, imparable, implacable, con valentía y con ell poder del martillo nadie lo podrá detener!
I'm naturally high while listening to this.
OMG i love this song. I haven't found yet a song from Hammerfall that i don't like. Hammerfall for the win \m/ .
I AM A HUNTER AND THE HEEEIIIRR TO THE THROOONE.
By far my favorite HF song
C'mon +Nuclear Blast Records. You have this in decent quality in your vaults somewhere. How about uploading it again at 720p in 16:9 so it's not a little low resolution rectangle in the middle of the screen.?
The Best song at the Best time of Hammerfall !
HECTOR RULEZ!
Videos uploaded in 240p quality should be one of the defining things of Power Metal along the epic lyrics and powerful instrumental ...
this video was uploaded ten years ago unbelievable
Juan Pablo Mendez hi
Ran Dom hi
Hammerfall is a so epic band! *.*
still a better love story than twilight
Knight slays vampire! Hammerfall slays twilight! Awesome video!
10 years !
one of the best songs ever made
2019 anyone?
Absolutely beautiful
This is not a fair fight, is just a bunch of weakling vampires from the Underworld movies agaisnt a prototype adeptus Astartes with a Lighting Hammer. Just the lighting hammer itself is overkill, a simple chainsaw sword would be more than enough.
+DieHard300 That's the point of a Paladin. Vampires get #Rekt. :D
+DieHard300 It's Astartes, even if there's only one. Also it's a Chainsword. Sorry m9
I was referring to the fact that he referred to a "chainsaw sword".
That you* referred, my bad
you mean Thor right? I mean ... he uses a Hammer .... has armor and the fact that LIGHTNING FUCKING COMES OUT OF THE DAMN HAMMER ITSELF, and I don't know why people goes by what Hollywood tells them how to kill a Vampire and a Lycan is Comedy at best.
That Paladin is so awesome!!! (the music is also awesome)
is there any music video that comes close to this?
No, Hammerfall is truly a master of the best worst music videos.
im at a loss for words its too awesome to think of
This music video is fucking epic.
this is great song and i love it
Wtf how can someone deslike this!?
I know rigth bit it soesint get me jumping like slipnot
i know the answer its a fan from something called reguetton wich is trash over sh*t thta teach the fan to do crimes drugs and disrespect women
cj the dj omg dont mention that prog sliplnot in a sacred video like this one.
This is a really good album, but it will NEVER be better than Crimson Thunder! Hearts On Fire, Hearts On Fire, Burning burning with desire!
super,nemaj chybu
Can't for the new album!
Hammerfall sound like what Avenged Sevenfold tried to do in Hail To The King and failed.
You can't compare them A7X doesn't even come close
Travis Toor Hell yeah. Hammerfall is the legacy of gods. The real old-school vibe metal.
Travis Toor If you listen carefully, you can see that Avenged Sevenfold tried to ripp off Hammerfall numerous times.
Hail Hammerfall! from Toronto Canada!
How do you surrender something you do not have?
Darn hope there's a sequel to this MV.
I always thought this was a song dedicated to an alcoholic:
1:14 "You have nothing to fear, 'cause your liver iiiiiis deeead"
Too bad? Yeah, sorry.
Great Song.....Can't get enough...
I like to think that this video is about Angus McFife III with the Hammer of Glory. Listen to some Gloryhammer if you have no idea what I'm talking about.
Eric Vaughn-Matthews Gloryhammer is amazing. I love them so much. I love GloryHammerFall
This video is 50 shades of awesome!
Dear Nuclear Blast GMBH. can you please upload the song Genocide by Hammerfall, either as a lyrics video (ideally), or just with band photos or album cover.

CAN'T HARDLY WAIT FOR THE NEW ALBUM!!!
Power Iron Maiden ;)
Brendan Goldman ahahah i think is similary, yes and not...
Hammerfall ist einfach geil
Da kann man sagen was man will
Fcking TH-cam commercials...
Rico Eerbeek hmmm thanks, I'll try it :D
my favorite song and band
Screw Dragonforce. Powermetal wannabes. Gamma Ray and Hammerfall. The real powermetal bands and founders of powermetal.
Powermetal Wannabes? Just because they aren't old doesn't mean that they don't fall under the category.....
Inevitibility44737 did I mention anything about the other groups being older? Thing with powermetal bands like dragonforce is that all they know how to play is fast and same tempo . Guys like Hammerfall, blind gaurdian, gamma ray know how to change it up more.

metalhead6777777 thats a lie, hear Trail of Broken Hearts or Dawn over a new World
This is some of the most metal shit i ever seen. I like it.
incredible voice this man!!!!!
it would be awesome if hammerfall could play this song live once again !
Hector Engaged
Hector Opened Enraged Berserk
Hector has 10000% Increased Awesomeness
Sounds like a diablo 3 reference xD
It keeps hammerring in my head!!!
this song is so awsome
Saxon called, they want their music back. Seriously tho, I love this... going to get their CD's. These guys would have been HUGE in the early 80's
Hammerfall.....awesome!
Hammerfall the best in the world!
This video is so campy and I love it. This is probably my favorite song by them.
BEST SONG OF ALL!!!
...........Hammer Fall! Kicks ass!
beautiful song
Best. Music Video. Ever.
That is some epic stuff right there...
die videos von HammerFall sind hammer geil
This is what epic is made of!
