HAMMERFALL guitarist Oscar Dronjak has posted the following message on the group's official web site:
“The Winter Olympics 2006 are over, and it ended on a high note for us: Sweden beat Finland 3-2 in the ice-hockey final, in a very exciting and nerve-racking game. But well, actually, we have more or less completed half of the songs for the album, scheduled to be released at the end of October this year. I have a very good feeling about this, the music so far sounds very varied and, I think, of high quality. My gut tells me, we will be building on the foundation of 'Chapter V: Unbent, Unbowed, Unbroken' and expanding the horizons of what HAMMERFALL is all about. I will post more news on this as we go, with some song titles and such in the coming months.”
