"Fake Chris"

I'm fairly certain that the picture that shows Christopher Bowes isn't actually Christopher Bowes. Gloryhammer has a replacement keyboardist lookalike named Myk Barber who stands in for Bowes, because Bowes now lives in America and is often unable to make touring dates due to both his location and his involvement in Alestorm. Bowes didn't play at Rockharz Open Air last year, Mike stood in. You can tell because (i'm pretty sure?) Bowes doesn't have a nose piercing, his eyes are rounder and more sunken, and his hair is curlier/kinkier. Not sure what to do about this fact or how to include Myk in the page, but I added him as a touring musician, and I also think that the entire lineup pictures should be replaced for consistency, or clarify that Bowes isn't the one in the picture.

I Highly Doubt A Retired U.S Four-Star General Is a Member of a Symphonic Power Metal Band

Name says it all, I highly doubt James Cartwright, 33-year old Welsh bassist and backup vocalist for Gloryhammer moonlights in his spare time as James Cartwright, 70-year old retired four-star general from Illinois, as the hyperlink in the "Members" section would seem to indicate. Please fix ASAP.

Scottish or English

From what I have seen, there are back-and-forth editing on if the band is either English (British, but in Wikipedia standards, English) or Scottish. I have done a bit of looking into where the members are from, and it appears that the members prior to the lineup change for the new lead vocalist are all from England, so it does not make any sense to call it a Scottish band if the members are from England. I would like to hear opinions and arguments on this, to see if we can come to a consensus on if the band can be one of the two mentioned. HorrorLover555 (talk) 16:33, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

I'm just going to go ahead and add a source, showing that Bowes is from England. It's one source, but it is better than nothing.

I'll leave this here. The rest, I'll collect on later. HorrorLover555 (talk) 23:31, 21 May 2023 (UTC)

Anthony Trimming

Why does the list of former members include Anthony Trimming? I can't find any evidence that he was ever affiliated with the band. Glory Hammer isn't listed as one of his current for former projects on the metal archives. https://www.metal-archives.com/artists/Anthony_'Trim'_Trimming/466272 Sewblon (talk) 01:51, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Never mind. Chris Bowes confirmed that Anthony Trimming was the first vocalist on Reddit. https://www.reddit.com/r/Gloryhammer/comments/stvzue/something_about_tom/ Sewblon (talk) 03:02, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
