It's amusing fluff, certainly not "terrible" but also not significant, not that they try to be or anything.... if you want superior music in the same vein, I recommend the two Helloween albums, Keeper of the Seven Keys, Parts I and II. They were both released in the late 80s and perfectly exemplify the type of style that Hammerfall are attempting to emulate on their releases.
EDIT: And to answer your initial question, their debut Glory to the Brave is their best album... get that one next.

Helloween is good, but Hammerfall is tons better. I recommend Crimson Thunder. It's by far their best album. I can't stop listening to the title track.

Helloween has a crappy lead singer. That's how they can be better. Also, Hammerfall is a way tougher name than Helloween. That just sounds like Eric Cartman trick-or-treating.

OH NOOOOOOOOOOO
Hammerfall has a good, and Helloween has a crappy singer? Which one, BTW? Hammerfall has a real bad singer, having a weak voice, and always copes with detonation onstudio albums, and generally detones live

crappy singer , maybe you mean Andy Deris
have you listened to the Keepers... albums ???? there is a great voice of power metal... Michael Kiske
the fact that the name is tougher doesnt say anything
it's the music that matters

Power metal is quite boring, especially Hammerfall.
Helloween is the only p.m. band that is listnable.
