In the fourth chapter traversing the wide universe, the power metal warriors seek to restore the Kingdom of Fife.

GLORYHAMMER have released the first single and official music video of their third studio album Legends from Beyond the Galactic Terrorvortex!
On their third epic quest through the universe, the five heroes around Angus McFife XIII created the galactic hymn “Gloryhammer”, which tells about their own journey through time and space, the greatest battles of all times and neverending glory.
Christopher Bowes on “Gloryhammer”: “Mighty warriors of the galaxy! Are you ready to raise up your laser powered goblin smasher to defeat the forces of Zargothrax? Then it’s time to watch the video for our new single…simply called “Gloryhammer”! In this song, Angus McFife has arrived into a terrible alternate universe ruled by the evil wizard Zargothrax…and to make matters worse, his legendary Hammer of Glory is powerless! His only hope is to fly into space and recharge the hammer with the power of astral fire…if his quest fails, then the forces of evil led by the deathknight Ser Proletius will rain down nuclear fire upon the brave resistance fighters of the Kingdom of Fife. The tragic fate of the Kingdom of Fife hangs in the balance once more…”
Watch the video here:
It is my destiny
To rule the Galaxy
I am the one
The chosen son
Glory! Hammer!
The galaxy waits in fear for the return of Angus McFife XIII, who fought the greatest battle the galaxy has ever heard of, against the evil sorcerer Zargothrax. All hope of the Kingdom of Fife lies in the strong arms and the infinite wisdom of their young prince.
On May 31st, GLORYHAMMER’s new album Legends from Beyond the Galactic Terrorvortex will tell us the whole story of the most gigantic battle of all time. Until then, we expect to receive more parts of what will end as the best power metal album the galaxy has ever seen. Keep your eyes and ears open!
