No Sacrifice, No Victory is the seventh studio album by HammerFall and was released February 20, 2009. It was partly recorded in PAMA Studios in Torsås and partly at King Diamond guitarist, Andy La Rocque’s Sonic Train Studios in Varberg.

This is the first album featuring the band’s new lead guitarist Pontus Norgren and the return of bassist Fredrik Larsson who played bass from 1994 to 1997, as well as the first to have the band tuning all of their guitars in all songs to D tuning as opposed to the E-flat tuning seen on all previous albums (they also used D tuning in title track for the album Glory to the Brave). The album was certified gold in Sweden.
The song “My Sharona” was also released as a single, the second single released from this album, and only has one track which has the same name as the song.
