Description
Hailing from the small provincial Midlothian town of Penicuik – less than 10 miles south of
Scotland’s capital city Edinburgh – the quintet have fast become one of the most talked about bands in the Scottish metal scene.
‘Trapped’ shows a band brimming with unbridled confidence in its songwriting and desire to redefine uncompromising heaviness.
It’s an album that bulldozes its way through the speakers – relentless in its colossal riffs and technicality, battering-ram rhythms and clever musical nuances that go way beyond its obvious extremities.
Its seven tracks effortlessly entwine the ferocious complexities of Strapping Young Lad at their most chaotic, with the bludgeoning grind of Pig Destroyer, to create a sound that is distinctly … Hammer.
‘Trapped’, 2025 is set to be an important milestone year in the world of metal.
With the album artwork commissioned and created by renowned French artist Remy Cooper of Headsplit Design (Cryptopsy, Arch Enemy, Pig Destroyer, Napalm Death – amongst many more)– “he's got an aesthetic that we dig and he totally understands what we wanted,” notes Adam – Hammer are poised and ready to take on the world.
