HAMMER est. 2005. The band performed gigs at festivals and clubs. As their fan base grew, the band started to record their music in a recording studio. That same year they released their debut EP First Gig: Blood shortly followed by Ready Motherfucker in early 2006.
After touring around Italy, they decided to record their first full-length album No Way Out. This saw the band performing more shows as well as securing a spot as an opening act for the Uli Jo Rot Tour.
In 2009 Richard started working on HAMMER’s sophomore album Hammer Nation which became a double live and studio album including live tracks from German and Italian shows. In 2010, Hammer released their third studio album Nation and embarked on the Wrong Way Tour around Germany and Italy.
Following Fingernails’ 2010 and 2011 tour, Richard went back to his home studio to work on some live tracks recorded during the last HAMMER tour in Italy. He decided to release a power live album Strike featuring the best songs from HAMMER’s early days. The band also recorded three new tracks for the album and embarked on the Strike Tour.
In 2015 HAMMER released a compilation called The Worst Of 2005/2015 for the 10th anniversary of the band.
In 2018 the band released the album “SPACE INVADER”.
The brand new single "Rock Is By My Side" was released on Summer 2020. The Boys release a live album now to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the band.
