Product Description -
When an already skilled local hard rock band is fortunate enough to have a guitar hero in its line-up (who unfortunately didn‘t become famous) and subsequently allows itself to be influenced by Iron Maiden rather than the acts of the seventies, it manages in 1985 to release a metal record of such quality and drive.

There are, of course, reasons why Hammerschmitt gave up the ghost after one, and why their album is still rather an open secret today. Even if it is now considered "cult" - at the time, the cover art was a death blow. The Metal Hammer‘s critics, important at the time, were clearly only influenced by the visual aspect of the record.

What‘s more, in 1985, the Rockport label was not a leader in the new German metal scene. After the successful albums by hard rockers Trance and the mega-hit "Die Hesse Komme!" by the Rodgau Monotones, the firm‘s influence was quickly lost, and other perfectly decent metal bands also paid the price. 

Had "Hammerschmitt" been released on a label like Noise, Roadrunner or Steamhammer (with a different cover), the story of the Hessian band would clearly have been different. 

Nevertheless, the album was released on CD by Karthago Records in 2008 with modified artwork, and received many good reviews posthumously. Young fans took an interest in Hammerschmitt for the first time.

Golden Core now offers the first reissue with a new remaster. To remain faithful to the original, we‘ve opted for the 1985 cover, which, fortunately, is now described as "typically eighties", "zeitgeist" or even "cult".

We Use Stock Images
Because we have over 2 million items for sale we have to use stock images, this listing does not include the actual image of the item for sale. The purchase of this specific item is made with the understanding that the image shown in this listing is a stock image and not the actual item for sale. For example: some of our stock images include stickers, labels, price tags, hyper stickers, obi's, promotional messages, signatures and or writing which may not be available in the actual item.



Vinyl Record disc colour
Stock images can show a black, coloured, or picture disc. Unless a colour or picture is explicitly described in this listing, this purchase is made with the understanding that it could be black or any colour, and or could be a picture disc.
 

Vinyl Record Version
Vinyl discs are released in many editions and variations, such as standard edition, re-issue, demonstration (demo), not for sale, promotional (promo), special edition, limited edition, and many other editions and versions.  The disc you receive could be any of these editions or variations. 
 

The Outer Sleeve
When we describe the sleeve condition in this listing, we are describing the outer sleeve only, specifically, it does not describe the inner sleeve unless explicitly referenced.
 

The Inner Sleeve
Almost all of our vinyl records will include either an original inner sleeve or a plain inner sleeve, or a printed inner sleeve. The images of this inner sleeve as shown on this listing are stock images, not the actual image. Inner sleeves are notorious for being replaced or damaged, such as edge splits. Unless explicitly mentioned in this listing the inner sleeve is not part of this purchase. If you purchase this vinyl record it is with the clear understanding the inner sleeve is not included as part of this sale, and if a sleeve is included it is provided on an as/is condition solely as packaging, as a protector for the record, which may have creases, wear or edge splits.
 

Hairlines
If we reference a hairline(s), it means it is a light line on the disc that looks like a hair. Hairlines are different to scratches or wear. A hairline is lighter and has limited and less impact on the playing quality, whereas wear or a scratch can cause some level of clicks, pops or interference when playing. 
 

Record Grading
Our Records are graded by the worldwide record industry standard called the 'Record Grading 101: Understanding The Goldmine Grading Guide'. Search this term on Google if you have any queries about how sellers and collectors grade vinyl records.
