| I can't believe Hammerfall isn't recognized much here at songmeanings.net. I guess they aren't all that well-known. I've heard alot by them, but this song will always be my favorite. The guitaring is so well-done, the vocalist's amazing sound- it's excellent. Acetica, I completely agree with your interpration. It doesn't take much to understand what they're talking about. "Let the hammer fall" as in, let the gaval fall, judgement, punishment, etc etc, get it? | |

| This song to me is about accepting responsibility for your actions. Read the lyrics, use the chorus to help you realize what I said. It should make sense to you | |

| Well, maybe Hammerfall isn't so well-known, but I think that it isn't so hard to understand the meaning most of their songs. But for me Hammerfall is the best band! Hell yeah! 1 | |
