for me is hermod's ride to hell, they didnt play it often... and for me after Victorious march is most epic. This one has a really impressive lyrics though
When I originally listened to this I just thought it was a great song, but when I listened to it after learning the mythology that inspired it it gave me chills. Fucking amazing!
@@Dylan-cu4ty It’s about the armies of the undead and jötnar preparing for their march on Vigrid in the battle of Ragnarök. I might be wrong here but I believe Lopt is the Swedish interpretation of Loki, similar to Oden vs. Odin. But it definitely is another way of referring to the trickster.
When I had this song as my ringtone, my dad would always shout "I SWEAR THIS BOY IS GOING TO GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK ONE DAY!" whenever my phone starts ringing.
But seriously, what a song though. One of their best.
I know this is about Norse mythology, but this song reminds me of the Night King. I can see his army of the dead marching upon Winterfell, every time I hear this song..
@Acceleration Quanta marvel Loki is not mythological Loki, the one from marvel is an infantile jerk purely. While mythological Loki kind of is too, marvel totally glossed over the loss of his family, the murdering of his sons by Odin, literally being lashed to a rock by their insides to suffer. Loki was angry, maddened by gullveig's heart, seeking revenge for never belonging, for the death of his family, and for personal power and authority, and if you believe it, fate.
@accelerationquanta5816 I don't think misnaming of Loki's parents (which happened in the comics) changes much, but it's the fact that his function in the story is completely botched and reduced to a third wheel (which the comics didn't do; he's the main bad guy and his children, which, yes, they are in the comics, play a large role in the events).
The Viking used to assault my land, Celtic Nation of Galicia, at Northwest of Spain... I wonder if "Long forgotten and Foreign tongues" could also refer to what my ancestors speak.. And we still.. Galician.. As we fough them back, as we always fighted back Romans, Muslims, Vikings, Castillians... To them we lost. It is why where "Spanish" nowadays. Even Though where Historical enemies Amon Amarth is my favorite band and our cultures are close anyways

one of their more underrated songs imo

Yup
This is one of my favorite songs by them
Easily in their top 3 for me if I had to choose.
Yessir
"The great world tree, Yggdrasil, trembles to its core" is the most adrenaline causing sentence ever written imo. Its just.. fuckin epic yo
To its roots 😅
Lyrically one of the best songs by Amon Amarth, imo.
Agreed.
And musically
Here here.
I'm so lucky that they played this song in a concert here in Brazil! One of my fav too.
@@isaacgoeth5158 hear hear*
From cracked and broken horns, long forgotten battle cries in strange and foreign tongues. Amazing lyrics
When I originally listened to this I just thought it was a great song, but when I listened to it after learning the mythology that inspired it it gave me chills. Fucking amazing!
Same
Yup. Knowing the name of the album too which is literally “Ragnarok” and what this song is implying
Same here 🤘💪
Shane F. What is the story behind this song? Because Lopt is just another name for Loki correct?

This is such an underrated song. Absolutely brilliant and probably their best 'slow' march style song
"Nowhere is longer safe" love that part of the song
When your necromancer gets too powerful and you cave in to your god complex
I swear the riff starting at 2:40 always gives me chills lol
Anyone that doesn't feel chills during that part has no soul 😂
it makes me wanna row quite aggressively across the floor
@@brads6211 the ultimate song to play while kayaking
ive always gotten it with under siege at the end th-cam.com/video/DiimvOK4kcs/w-d-xo.html
Chris Dotson have you listen to this in a concert in the middle of the pit? It’s a religious experience
This is exactly how imagine Ragnarok
I love when it hits 1:53
Yes!! \m/
Brutalllll!!!! 😭
fuck yes
NOWHERE, IS LONGER SAFE
Ladies if you want to get your man in the mood.
Hell it may get me there!! Js
Definitely one of many fav songs by this band could rock them all day everyday
such elegance and grace
Bill Russel the GOAT man if you love NBA and this kind of metal you are legend
One of the best Song of Amon Amarth..... Amazing
My all time fav song from my all time fav band
When I had this song as my ringtone, my dad would always shout "I SWEAR THIS BOY IS GOING TO GIVE ME A HEART ATTACK ONE DAY!" whenever my phone starts ringing.
But seriously, what a song though. One of their best.
After it ends all I can think is "what a great song"
Favorite AA song, Period.
His vocals are like no other.I fkng LOVE AMON AMARTH!!!!!🤘
So fucking brutal god damnit I want this Amon Amarth style back 🤘
Man the opening always gets me going
I love this song knowing I did most of my study of Norse Mythology around Ragnarök
One of my fav songs...
I think AA was destined to sing about this subject matter.
Agree.
alcoholics anonymous?
Well it was a good choice
Just like THERION was destined to sing about LEMURIA,
2 masterpieces 100%
Anti-aircraft?
we chose to die standing than live on our knees as slaves or sheep!!!!!!
Skål!
Damn right!
Skål till min bröderna🍻⚔️
0:55 i love that part
I know this is about Norse mythology, but this song reminds me of the Night King. I can see his army of the dead marching upon Winterfell, every time I hear this song..
And every time I hear Benny Hill's song I think about Arya jumping out of nowhere to ruin 7 seasons of build-up
The lyric is so f*cking epic.
this is the video i've been practicing to for a couple weeks now, thank you
I thought this song was their best but once i learned the song sang of Ragnorak? I knew it was their best
I love this song! You made an awesome lyrics vid!!! HD quality is great
How am i supposed to read the lyrics while headbandging so hard? can't you read them out loud? Thx and have fun!
hahaah thats fucking crazy song man!!!
Turn up the stereo you'll hear the lyrics.
Johan already read them out loud
As a scot i repect scandanavia both have a history of warriors
as a Georgian, I'm in the same boat
Amo este tema y Amon Amarth es una gran banda.
2:49 *Destiny intensifies*
Damn. I hope the gods find me worthy enough to fight for them During ragnarok
I love your pfp
@@KatPie78 haha thanks yeah I’m an eso fan
If you show strength, cunning, and courage, humbled by morality, the Æsir will welcome you with open arms, brođer.
Love the transition at @1:51
so beautiful. I love Johan Hegg's voice
One of my favs, it gives epic vibes
Excellent lyrics
Me and my friends when we get home from school
The lyrics paint a better story of Ragnarok than that joke of a movie Taika Waititi did.

I.... unfortunately agree.
@accelerationquanta5816 I thought loki was the father of the wolf. Fenrir......
@@space-gypsy he is, Fenrir, jormungand, and finally hel, along with his son's vili vali from his wife Sigyn

My favourite song from AA
It is a masterpiece!
If these riffs don't get you worked up... your dead .. and you did not go to Valhalla
Perfect song, best vikingband
This song cures cancer!
you can clearly hear them advancing !
Saw them in Wacken 2004 and already had a fun time. Saw them again in 2008 and couldn't believe how they had advanced!
Great job. THX!
The lyrics are like poetry my goodness
my neighbors hear death metal whether you like it or not hahahahaha hail odin
1:53 repeat
Loki is the God of "It's just a prank bro".
What a fuckin banger.
hadnt heard of this in ages
My fav song of all time
Between these guys and infant inaliator idk which one I love more
Ragnarok intensify!!! the horde of draugr and Finrir is coming to war the aesir God's and the God's of Asgard and all the nine wralms.

How do we make an epic song more epic?.....Add HORNS!
My little sister listened to this song she grew a beard an got a foot taller
How to get a singing voice like that: Gargel every morning with rusty nails and sulfuric acid...
Amazing 😍
Where was Moses when the lights went out?
Hail from Ukraine!

Hail Odin!
Yeaaaaaaa!!!!!!!¡!¡!¡!¡!!!
fuckin awesome song
So good
Yes it is
i want Krauka to cover this one.
🤘🤘🤘ИНГУШЕТИЯ 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Fucking beautiful
Is this related to the epic of Ragnarok? Like the lore }: {-
Joseph Russel Timpug Ison yes of is!
Loki will lead the dishonorable dead and they will fight the gods in one final battle. During this Surtur burns the earth.
I think the whole album is the tale of Ragnarok, is it not?
Not exactly, some songs are about other topics i think.
@@thrownswordpommel7393 fair! Ty for the correction :)
How can this guys make all songs only great, I mean you can not amon amarth song which is not excellent!

Anyone think that the start of this sounds a bit like the last stand by sabaton?
This song is 12 years older.
Twilight of the Thunder God (the album this is from) came out in 2008. The Last Stand came out in 2016. So it's only eight years older.
I love Sabaton but I don’t see any similarity
Brutally Honest Metalhead I think it’s more the feeling than the sound itself.
I was searching for this comment. Yeah, it sounds like the Last Stand a little.
Sauron's music for work out.

3:00
Is that the Gjallarhorn from Destinly 😳😳😳😳
That's the original from which the Destiny one gets it's name. It's the horn Heimdall sounds to call the gods to Ragnarok.
Army of the Dead !!
Army of hell
I’m about to tell this polar bear climate change ain’t real. I gotta listen to Amon amarth

this sounds worse than ragnarok lore wise
