Order at: www.indiemerch.... King Of Asgard's video for "Einharjar" from their Metal Blade debut album "Fi'mbulvintr". Buy: www.districtlin... iTunes: itunes.apple.co...
I honestly think that King of Asgard is right in front when it comes to modern day Viking Metal. The right vocals, good quality melodies (but not so melodic to lose the aggressive nature) and of course the powerful feeling you get listening to them. Hail the King!
+Rum Runner There is a seriously raw attitude and feeling towards it and at the same time it is extremely well mixed mastered and recorded. Not something you find in metal very much any more unfortunately. I remember the first time I heard this song (slightly after its release) my friend was listening to it and the intro riff got absolutely plastered in my head. I was trying to recreate it on the guitar and couldnt get it down (I still sucked a lot back then) and i managed to hum it to my mate and he told me the name....and then I found 5 dollars.... anyway, point being, fantastic band. I hope they stay on this path. \m/ To Valhalla friends.
in ten years of listening to this band, i revisit their most famous song on youtube and it only as 300k veiws, and people are comparing them to amon amarth... i find this sad. i think yall should share this up. this is three guys with intruments (maybe two, didnt see the drummer anywhere >.>) and they made some sick music.
amon amarth is the most well known "viking" style metal band so yes it's going to receive comparisons. just as people compare x y z pop singer with michael jackson or country singers with johnny cash or billy ray cyrus.
Silence, hark and behold Shattered fields, substantial darkness... and a swallowed sun A sudden void, a sacred ground... where Death has sung Einhärjar - Die before us one and all Einhärjar - Chosen to die by the glimpse of an age Einhärjar - Die before us one and all Einhärjar - Reunite, we all shall fall Härjafader, a woven fate in the hall of the slain Härjafader, and a shadow of a thousand... ...when the Wolf comes! A glance cold, dreaful to witness... and to hold Since dawn of time, awaiting... yearning unfold Einhärjar - Die before us one and all Einhärjar - Chosen to die by the glimpse of an age Einhärjar - Die before us one and all Einhärjar - Reunite, we all shall fall
I'm a huge fan of Amon Amarth, and I don't think these guys sound anything like them! Very nice music tho! Actually never heard of these guys before :D
For those comparing KoA with Amon Amarth, Tyr and such - mind you, that’s actually the forefathers, came from the one and the only Mithotyn, one of the founders of genre.
Bueno es un gran honor escuchar a esta banda, el vocalista tiene una fuerza arrolladora en su voz y King of Asgard es una apuesta a ganador si le das una oportunidad de escucharlo.
Awesome song, really!! I like the singer screaming "EINHARJAAAAAAAR" And I also like the nordic mythology behind it! Great song, really great! ROCK ON!
What i like most about their style is its very good marching/rowing music if you were a real viking traveling into battle. its got that good 4/4 beat to it
I can´t understand how all people here say "That sounds like Amon Amarth" They use the same topics in the lyrics, and both is Melodic Death Metal but that´s it..
youre right although i kinda like it it sounds nothing like amon amarth id prefer amon amarth but then again i prefer amon amarth over most things especially the vocals im sorry but this man may be enjoyable he doesnt hold a candle to johan hegg (in my opnion ofcourse)
The last two albums are great musical achievements that have some really towering tracks and I love how they took the latest album Karg in a more black-metal direction, but considering the albums as wholes I think Fi'mbulvintr is still their best work. Einherjar is quite possibly their best song, and currently one of my favorite songs out of any band. Snake Tongue, Brethren of the North, Lingering a Sacred Ground, and Never Will You Know of Flesh Again are also staggering tracks. Hell, this whole album is great.
The black metal blast beats are quite welcome here, I haven't heard these integrated into viking metal in a non-annoying way in a while so good on ya. To everyone bitching about them ripping off Amon Amarth, stylistically and structurally they sound more like Tyr to me but with growls instead of clean vocals. Who knows?
@@erwinrommel9294 Sadly, while I am stable, I have two tubes under my skin going around the back of my head which should not be removed. Sigh... I still headbang though
Viking metal isn't really a genre, but at this point, when there's hundreds of bands playing metal and singing about vikings, you need something with which to tag them.
One of the best song I've ever heard in my life !

+Rum Runner Amon Amarth!
+Rum Runner i dont think this band is much folk. so i dont think they sing songs of vikings
+Jarl Oden Amon Amarth is neither folk nor black metal, they're not viking metal in any way.
Amon amarth is My favorite viking metal band ever. King is a close second but amon amarth will always be top in my book. \m/
Einharjaaaar! Awesome song!
Hail Valhalla !
+Tadeusz Norek I think nowadays it translates to "allah ackbar"..:D
If You get the oppertunity, then go see them live...
You WILL NOT regret it, I promise 🤘🤘🤘🤜🤜🤜
Einhärjer!!!!!

Swedes are Kings of Metal! Poland greets!
Silence, hark and behold
Shattered fields, substantial darkness... and a swallowed sun
A sudden void, a sacred ground... where Death has sung
Einhärjar - Die before us one and all
Einhärjar - Chosen to die by the glimpse of an age
Einhärjar - Die before us one and all
Einhärjar - Reunite, we all shall fall
Härjafader, a woven fate in the hall of the slain
Härjafader, and a shadow of a thousand...
...when the Wolf comes!
A glance cold, dreaful to witness... and to hold
Since dawn of time, awaiting... yearning unfold
Einhärjar - Die before us one and all
Einhärjar - Chosen to die by the glimpse of an age
Einhärjar - Die before us one and all
Einhärjar - Reunite, we all shall fall
no words can describe how much I love this song
I'm a huge fan of Amon Amarth, and I don't think these guys sound anything like them! Very nice music tho! Actually never heard of these guys before :D
There's no point in comparing a viking metal band like this and a melodic death metal band like Amon Amarth anyway.
They are a bit underrated. I found my way to them via Amon Amarth but they're really only similar in theme.
Yeah, they're similar but because of their genre, however, they don't sound the same as A.A.
Mithotyn man!!!!!...
Mithotyn, Dawn, Thy Primordial members. All good bands i grew up listening to.
This is propably the best song in this universe.
Phenomenous🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Einharjaaaaaaaaaaarrr!
I love this song
That Drum sounds like a Friggin' Chopper!!!!
Bloody awensome!!!!!!!!
Heli to the Vikings!!!!
For those comparing KoA with Amon Amarth, Tyr and such - mind you, that’s actually the forefathers, came from the one and the only Mithotyn, one of the founders of genre.
Falconer and King of Asgard are formed by ex members of Mithotyn
the guitar sound is awesome, the whole package is like a viking metal band with big black metal influences, i love it!
Bueno es un gran honor escuchar a esta banda, el vocalista tiene una fuerza arrolladora en su voz y King of Asgard es una apuesta a ganador si le das una oportunidad de escucharlo.
Awesome song, really!!
I like the singer screaming "EINHARJAAAAAAAR"
And I also like the nordic mythology behind it!
Great song, really great!
ROCK ON!
I love this song,it's so powerful!
Want to see these guys live
Bought their album after watching this video a few times.
It's great! :)
Absolutely fantastic song!
holy shit he puts alot of power behind those screams!!
My favorite song from this band
World needs more Viking Metal bands. And anyone who sounds similar to the amazing Amon Amarth is okay in my books!
I love living a couple hundred metres away from the vocalist.
amazing! epic find, song finished head still banging
THIS IS VERY AMAZING AND UNBELIEVABLE VIKING METAL BAND AWESOME .
1:50 love that riff! nice band
I love the guitar work! Good job.
What i like most about their style is its very good marching/rowing music if you were a real viking traveling into battle. its got that good 4/4 beat to it
My 2 year old son was just stomping to the beat!
Such a good song
Brilliant.
AWESOME
One word - Epic.
No. It is rugged, dirty, rough, POWERFUL and even has beard.
It does not lack anything.
They can say what ever they want... For me AA is Viking Metal \m/
That's the topic of their lyrics but not a genre. Viking Metal could be influenced by Black Metal, Death Metal, Folk Metal or so.
Great!
I can´t understand how all people here say "That sounds like Amon Amarth"
They use the same topics in the lyrics, and both is Melodic Death Metal but that´s it..
I don't hear it either.
youre right although i kinda like it it sounds nothing like amon amarth id prefer amon amarth but then again i prefer amon amarth over most things especially the vocals im sorry but this man may be enjoyable he doesnt hold a candle to johan hegg (in my opnion ofcourse)
a bit like the old amon amarth cds but just a little
Theres nothing from Amon Amarth in this Song/Band... Amon Amarth is (in my opinion) better, but this is awesome too. Just another kind of awesome! :D
indeed don't understand what the fuzz is all about ...
Saying KOfA sound lik AmAm is as much bullshit as saying Machine Head sounds like Pantera.
This is so awesome! \m/. Hail Odin!
Best song!!!!
I love how he gets all evil with it at 2:22
masterpiece
I could have sworn I didn't have a beard before I clicked onto this
😂😂😂😂😂
simply amazing :DD
Its so freaky! The singer looks so epic between 0:46 - 0:50!
They're too great. :D
Man, this song is so kick-ass but also so new that there aren't even any lyrics in the net yet, let alone any tabs!
never heard of this band,glad i ran across it fucking awesome.
2022 and still KICK ASSSS!!!
Muy lindo
I THINK ODIN MIGHT SAY,ONE OF THE BEST VIKING METAL SONGS OF ALL.KICK ASS BOYS.
This is just AWESOME!!
Damn good song!!!!
Now this is cool music!
My beard is growing bigger listening to this song. 🔥😎🤘🏻
pretty sick!!! i wanna hear more of them.
Awesome! .. Epic Win! FTW!
@ACDCrocker1973 Because they're awesome, just like Amon Amarth. haha I just bought their CD, I can't wait.
Really nice song :)
Cheers from Sweden
The last two albums are great musical achievements that have some really towering tracks and I love how they took the latest album Karg in a more black-metal direction, but considering the albums as wholes I think Fi'mbulvintr is still their best work.

Day of Sorrow is one of my favs rn! one of the best metal albums front to back imo
Epic, nothing more to say about
nice song
dont mess with as i lay dying. this band sounds awesome.
I play this guitar only in galaxy white , great instrument - your guitar sound reminds me of inflames early albums
The black metal blast beats are quite welcome here, I haven't heard these integrated into viking metal in a non-annoying way in a while so good on ya. To everyone bitching about them ripping off Amon Amarth, stylistically and structurally they sound more like Tyr to me but with growls instead of clean vocals. Who knows?
Amen
Pretty cool
This is the best nordic shit I have heard since I discovered Amon Amarth.
Brilliant 🤘
THE BEGINNING SPOOKED ME SO BAD OH MY
Awesome band
His screams are so powerfull i fucking love it
i love this hommage of einherjer´s "iron bound" :DD
I get so tempted to headbang but since I have had brain surgery, it is risky to do so.
I might as well do it.
Do it... Valhalla awaits Einherjar
dude, you forget. if he doesn't die in battle he won't go to valhalla
Headbutt everyone in the pit while you headbang... For Odin
Hopefully you have recovered and can now head bang till you heart's content
@@erwinrommel9294 Sadly, while I am stable, I have two tubes under my skin going around the back of my head which should not be removed. Sigh... I still headbang though
awesome... thats all i can say
"To my side my noble Einharjar"
@E.T Mutant Divine assault!
I love this song, it's where my last name came from 🖤
Очень хорошо!
that guy doesn't get blisters from the strings, the strings get blisters from him!
❤❤❤
Einhärjer!!!!
That is one catchy opening riff! \m/
This is awesome to play on bass :D
Epic band! Will buy their album :D
Still sounds like Mithotyn
A little yeah. Riffs were more dynamic and melodic though
"Einhärjaaaaar!! Die before ussss one and all!!
Bra jobbat grabbar. Jävlar vad Jonas headbangar!
Refreshing to see dudes over 30 getting out there kicking ASS!
A Nordic blend of Suidakra and Amon Amarth? Badass, thy name is King of Asgard. \m/
EINHARJAAAAAAR!
Hecate cometh with the four flames and winds as one
That look at 00:17 is beyond epic...
Viking metal isn't really a genre, but at this point, when there's hundreds of bands playing metal and singing about vikings, you need something with which to tag them.
Wow, these guys are fucking awesome!
Einhärjer!!!! 🤘😡🤘
Hey, this was uploaded on my 15th birthday :D
this sounds fucking brilliant when blasting at full throttle outta your sound system
Se siente la esencia de mithotyn!!! Skål
Still epic
James Halford, check out Inis Mona by Elevetie, its a bad ass band and that's a badass song. "inis Mona"
Mithotyn's back!
to look badass
These guys are awesome. Where're they from?
That's absolutely viking metal new generation with death metal influences. Not only 1% equal AA...
