It's so funny how all these bands have these Tolkien names, no matter the genre. Especially Black Metal. Bands Burzum, Isengard, Morgoth, Cirith Ungol, Gorgoroth. Musicians Grishnakh, Shagrath... I mean, as a Tolkien fan I find it kinda cool. Funny, but cool :D
Ive seen Amon Amarth in concert twice now, cant wait to see them again. Check out the live version of "Put your Back to the oar" and be prepared to be introduced to a Row Pit! \m/
They have a good show but they lack interaction with the crowd and they also act strangly while on camp ground. Doro is the most based act. She just walks the camp grounds in a cloud of her fans at most festivals her "band" is also super based, they are super nice and never told us who they were to the end at one BBQ... the only person more based was lee perry, that dude sleept in my smoke after buming my dope hut twice in his bad times..
@@thedragonlee2327 yes first time for them, they are touring with ghost which is an odd combination. Don't mide because I love ghost. This is going to be a great year for concerts. I already have tickets for carcass in April and I'm taking my niece to see Rob zombie in September for her 16th birthday present. She doesn't know I'm buying the meet and greet for her. I'm excited to see amon for the first time though.
Seen Amon Amarth twice. There live set is one hell of a show ! Pryos are insane and people fighting on stage in viking gear. I love that they are still producing great albums after all this time. Stuck true to there origins, unlike alot of bands!
Amon Amarth and metal legends Saxon have a close friendship. Both of these bands have done guest appearances on their latest albums. A track from The Great Heathen Army by Amon Amarth is called Saxons and Vikings in which both singers play characters in the story of the song, a Saxon and Viking.
Amon Amarth have created a new style: Beard Metal 😅 Fun fact, Johan Hegg the vocalist in this band also have a record store in Stockholm, Sweden. Fun fact 2. When he was 12 he borrowed the books from the icelandic writer Snorri Sturlason (10th century) on the local library when other kids read Lucky Luke or the Smurfs. 👍🤘
That's how I'm growing my beard. I can't wait to see them in August. Never seen them live. Most bands avoid my state. I'm so glad bands are touring again. It was slim pickings for a while. Concerts are my drug addiction.
War creates big changes in a relatively short time, so it's easy to tell history by tracking the upheavals of war. They are also usually declared by the powerful people in society (kings, the rich etc.), and war is one of the few things that can threaten those people, and for ages those were also the only people with the time to write history books, so they wrote about things that seemed most important to them. Plus they're real dramatic. But there are so many things that historians would love to know more about (economics, social customs, music, religious beliefs, on and on), but we can only use archaeology to find out that stuff, b/c ancient writers were so stuck on writing about war.
I remember learning that a reason for the viking raids were in part due to the growing prosperity of Scandinavian people, which would lead to a rapidly growing population. As a result, groups began to first raid neighboring countrymen for food and tradable goods. Over time, they would eventually voyage across the sea to England. There were vikings who raided as a necessary means to survive but, many youngsters joined raid parties strictly to build a name and reputation for themselves. Naturally, voyaging became more than just a means to raid. They would also do so for agriculture, to establish trades, and even for curiosity of what else was out in the world, yet to be discovered.
793 AD was the first Viking raid outside of Scandinavia, on the monastery at Lindisfarne, England 😊 And TECHnically 😆😆 Thor was the god of Lightning. Odin the All-father, was the one eyed god of War, mainly 😁 (I lived in Iceland several years, and love my Viking sagas)
@@danielnystrom6117 Not really. There's a saying that the victors write the history. Usually the conquer's culture is what overwrites the ways of the conquered. So many well known empires have done this very thing or integrated some form of the conquered's culture into the local peoples to make sure those that were subjugated are less likely to rise up in rebellion.
I guess it's worth noting that Ragnarök, basically the norse version of the apocalypse, is also called "the twilight of the gods". It's basically when everything falls apart for the northern gods, Thor, the thundergod, being one of the most well known ones of them.
I was crying with you guys for the first 3:20 mins of this. You two sound like me and my friends trying to do trivia!!! Ridiculous and I love it!!! 🤣🤣🤪🤣 Also, I am so happy you did Amon Amarth!! Been a fan since I saw them somewhere in Sweden in 1994 (yes, I'm that old! lol). 💞
After seeing this reaction I’d love to hear your thoughts on Insomnium, they’re another melodic band with harsher vocals that you can make out the lyrics to. They’re whole catalogue is awesome BUT a great place to start is “While We Sleep” then Revelation, Lilian or Heart Like a Grave. Great reaction as always! 👍👍 Edit: Soilwork is great for the same reason too!
One thing about Viking lore that I have always loved, is that they didn't consider their women weak. As a matter of fact, the most honored men were married to women who were stronger than them. Viking men didn't consider their women weaklings that had to be protected. A husband and warrior could stand shield to shield with his wife in battle. She would be his shield maiden. Valkyries also are usually all women in norse lore. And they were tasked with carrying the brave fallen to Valhalla.
Hollywood, you and Smokey should check out Korpiklaani. They're a Finnish metal band that has some songs about beer, vodka, and drinking in general. And if you're into Tolkien, look up the Austrian band Summoning. All of their albums except the first one are based on his works.
Though Viking Metal is sort of a genre, it's more of a thematic thing. Amon Amarth is considered Melodic Death Metal. You tend to say Power Metal whenever the song has an epic touch to it. Power Metal as a genre is usually defined by very fast but melodic songs and high clean vocals. Other elements that are usually present are fast double kick bass drums, synths, amazing guitar solos and a touch of symphonic and epic elements. Lyrical themes are more often than not fantasy literature or history related. As all metal genres, there's a very wide variety of bands that can be considered Power Metal but I think these are the "traditional" characteristics. Overlap especially with Progressive and Symphonic metal is very usual. Some of the biggest names on the genre are Helloween, Blind Guardian, Stratovarius, DragonForce, Gamma Ray and Rhapsody just to name a few. Since metal genres are a neverending discussion, I'm sure there will be many people who disagree with me and have a different idea of what is power metal and what is not :D If you want to take a good look at the evolution of metal and the different genres, subgenres etc. I suggest checking out the documentary "Metal: A Headbanger's Journey" by Sam Dunn and if you want to dive even deeper, the 12 episode follow-up series "Metal Evolution".
He's one of the best death metal vocalists out there in my opinion. His diction is good enough that you can understand most of what he's saying if you pay close attention, unlike a lot of other death metal vocalists.
@@opticFPV It doesn't matter if you agree or not. That's how the genre works. People don't listen to SFU because the growls sound like trash even if you can easily understand what Barnes is saying.
@@Nightwalk444 Not sure what makes you think you're more of an expert on the genre than anyone else, I've been listening to death metal for a long time and that's not how I see things. If that's how you see things, that's cool. But that doesn't mean that's the "correct" way to see things, or how the genre is "meant to be". Chuck Schuldiner's vocals are easy to understand and Death was basically the pioneer of the genre.
The song Pursuit of Vikings or Runes to My Memory would be two other great songs to do . But ! Hermod's Ride To Hell tells a fantastic story ! It must be done with the lyrics on screen though . SO FN EPIC !!!!! Its so good that the lyrics and music takes you in to the story . Its like after you read a good book or finish a Netflix series that your so invested in , then BAM ! Now its done and your sad because the story is over . They take you there in one song !
Twilight of the Thunder God refers to Thor's death after he kills the serpent Jormungandr during Ragnarok (the Twilight of the gods) it's a song about his last stand as the defender of Midgaard (earth).
These guys are heavily influenced by an old school British Death Metal band called Bolt Thrower, Bolt Thrower is one of the best OG Death Metal bands imo. Y'all should check out "The Killchain" by Bolt Thrower sometime, y'all would love Bolt Thrower if you enjoy Amon Amarth. Great reaction guys!!! 🤘🤘🤙🤙
I really like Amon Amarth. I sort of think of them as the AC/DC of metal; most of their songs sound pretty much the same, but if you like the sound, they will always be good and never disappoint. Pick any random Amon Amarth song and you'll know pretty much exactly what you're going to get and it's going to get your head moving. They're maybe not as inventive as other metal bands, but they really don't need to be. Their sound is classic Swedish metal and it will always be good.
Great reaction video as always dudes. I'd simply like to point out respectfully to you two that there's no such thing as 'power metal'. I'm a Metal-er, and have been a fan of Heavy Metal since I was in Junior High in the mid-80's when I first heard Haunting The Chapel by Slayer and Ride The Lightning by Metallica. And we-us Metal-ers know that there are ONLY 6 TRUE subcategories of Heavy Metal: 1 - Heavy Metal; 2 - Punk Metal; 3 - Speed Metal; 4 - Thrash Metal; 5 - Death Metal: 6 - Black Metal. The terms 'power metal' and 'metalheads' originated with the 'Yutes' who weren't even born yet when Heavy Metal was at it's HEIGHT in the mid-80's to mid-90's. I just honestly hope that you two don't think that what I said was meant in a negative way towards you guys, I was simply trying to give additional information as a Metal-er But regardless, again GREAT reaction video as always dudes. I'm always looking forward to the next reaction you guys do to Metal songs. That being said, just imagine if Haruna (sometimes referred to as the 'pocket nuke') was playing drums on this song. You two dudes absolutely rule.
I dare yall to do some Atilla- call out 😁. Love ya'll, keep up what ya doin. Nice to see Hollywood stopped smoking on your videos. Hopefully you quit permanently.
Hey guys, always love your reactions. This band is actually more death metal. Power metal is more like a band like Dragonforce. You can understand Johan so much better because he annunciates when he sings so much better than most death metal singers. This is one of my favorite bands. Also, if you enjoy tribal metal type of metals, then check out the song Roots bloody roots by the band Sepultura. That is about as tribal as I've ever heard. Lastly, not sure if you're aware, but you're about 3 songs behind now in the Babymetal new album singles releases. I saw your reaction to Divine Attack, they also have released Monochrome, Metal Kingdom (this one has live concert footage but studio album soundtrack), and this month they released Light and Darkness. So really looking forward to your reactions to those!! Anyhow, enjoyed the reaction keep up the good work!
Oh man this is a good one. Def one of my fav songs of theirs, fun to play on guitar. Should check out VS the World, whole album from beginning to end is epic.
You said you like the "tribal" stuff. I recall Hollywood mentioning Irish descent. How about checking out Primordial. They make epic metal that has elements from Celtic music and Black and Doom Metal. For example "The Coffin Ships" about Great Famine in Ireland won't leave anyone cold. Also one of my favorites "Where Greater Men Have Fallen" is a masterpiece. You can't go wrong with any of their songs though.
according to johan hegg, amon amarth is not a viking metal band. they are a melodic death metal band that writes songs about vikings.
Exactly - they are clearly Melodic Death and not Viking Metal, cause Viking Metal is a subgenre of Black Metal - and they are clearly not Black 😊
Melodic death metal inspired by the Viking era to put it simply.
I do agree with that but honestly, there is no other band that makes me feel more Viking than Amon Amarth.
@@manuelhecher7361bleh, too technical. Amon Amarth is Amon Amarth.
Amon Amarth the band took the name from Mount Doom in The Lord Of The Rings as that is the Sindarin name of the mountain.
It's so funny how all these bands have these Tolkien names, no matter the genre. Especially Black Metal. Bands Burzum, Isengard, Morgoth, Cirith Ungol, Gorgoroth. Musicians Grishnakh, Shagrath...
I mean, as a Tolkien fan I find it kinda cool. Funny, but cool :D
@@punkjay4681 Borknagar.
You should do this whole album so great the final song is quite sad it’s a great story album.
💯 agree! Also, Fate of Norns album is amazing and the song Fate of Norns is also quite somber. Great fuckin band!
Totally agree!
Embrace the Endless Ocean is my favorite song by them. It has such powerful emotions
Ive seen Amon Amarth in concert twice now, cant wait to see them again. Check out the live version of "Put your Back to the oar" and be prepared to be introduced to a Row Pit! \m/
They have a good show but they lack interaction with the crowd and they also act strangly while on camp ground.
Doro is the most based act. She just walks the camp grounds in a cloud of her fans at most festivals her "band" is also super based, they are super nice and never told us who they were to the end at one BBQ...
the only person more based was lee perry, that dude sleept in my smoke after buming my dope hut twice in his bad times..
Would love to see you guys react to more of them, this entire album is incredible from start to finish and their lyrics are awesome.
MÖTALLL 🤘🤘😊🖤 the whole album is a melodic death metal banger
Amon Amarth means Mount Doom from the Lord of the Rings
I was hoping someone would say this in the comments
Hell the fuck yeah. Amon Amarth ARE FUCKIN LEGENDS. Their concerts are amazing too. Love y'all fellas. Stay safe ✊
Yes!!! Going to see them August 20th.
@@KenBober Fuck yeah. Is it your first one?

Just discovered these guys (because of their opening spot on the new ghost tour) I can definitely get behind this. should be a great show
I saw Amon Amarth open for Megadeath and blow them out of the water. They put on a high energy show that does not disappoint at all!
@@Blackdog06019 Is it normal for Amon Amarth to open for either of those bands? I could get Megadeth maybe but Ghost? Lol
@BleaK1211 I can see Megadeath seeing as they are the older more well known band. But Ghost is very much gonna be overshadowed by Amon Amarth.
I love Amon Amarth I vote next by them should be Valkyria or Ravens Flight.
Every song on the With Odin On Our Side album is a metal anthem. Valhal Awaits is my favourite from that album.
Twilight is when the Sun goes below the horizon!!
Amon Amarth have created a new style: Beard Metal 😅
Fun fact, Johan Hegg the vocalist in this band also have a record store in Stockholm, Sweden.
Fun fact 2. When he was 12 he borrowed the books from the icelandic writer Snorri Sturlason (10th century) on the local library when other kids read Lucky Luke or the Smurfs. 👍🤘
Killer album all around 🤘❤️🇨🇦
When you listen to this guys you feel like a real Viking.
That's how I'm growing my beard. I can't wait to see them in August. Never seen them live. Most bands avoid my state. I'm so glad bands are touring again. It was slim pickings for a while. Concerts are my drug addiction.

@@IR4TE it will be my first time seeing them live.
Have a good time man! I got to see them several years ago and it was an amazing show.

"I need 10 more minutes of that!" Agreed. I love me some Amon Amarth.
When I seen them in concert they had a half a viking ship on stage and they preformed on it.
Thank you for doing the original video ❤ This was my most listened to spotify song in 2019 and it's just amazing.
793 AD was the first Viking raid outside of Scandinavia, on the monastery at Lindisfarne, England 😊

I really need you guys to do Evile-We who are about to die
Y’all on that good stuff 😂
🤣🤣🤣
The drums are just insane.
Love the Viking sound. Ragnarok from Peyton Parrish is awsome to
Please react to Amon Amarth's best song, Pursuit of Vikings! It will make your beards grow several inches just by listening to it.
That is a great one, along with “Surtur’s fire”
I guess it's worth noting that Ragnarök, basically the norse version of the apocalypse, is also called "the twilight of the gods". It's basically when everything falls apart for the northern gods, Thor, the thundergod, being one of the most well known ones of them.
Twilight of the gods is actually the death of the Nordic (viking) gods.
Ridin' in the pocket on that break down... nice. Looking forward to seeing these guys open for Ghost on their recently-announced 2023 US tour. Cheers!
I was crying with you guys for the first 3:20 mins of this. You two sound like me and my friends trying to do trivia!!! Ridiculous and I love it!!! 🤣🤣🤪🤣

Hell yeah my favorite band
I'd love to see you guys do The Last Stand of Frej by them
Man, I have never seen Smokey reaction like this….
Viking metal!
8 june 793 - 14 october 1066 was viking age.

Just saw them play this live last month- you know I was in the row pit! (Please look up Amon Amarth row pits - EPIC)
Just saw them last Wednesday in philly... fuckin sick show. Put your back into the oar was awesome. The pit sat down and rowed the warship
they do literal viking battles on stage live. enough said.

Really the best way to describe them.
I've seen a few videos of yours now... I can safely say you two are transitioning from rappers to metalheads quite smoothly

finally lets goooo
Bathory- Twilight of The Gods is awesome Viking metal.
This sings to my soul..as a non Christian dane..who grew up with the tales of our nordic goods..our real religion..

Guys check XG left right official mv so good these girls are fire
Johan Hegg is BADASS
Please react to some more metal...Strapping Young Lad, In Flames, Children Of Bodom, Infernal Majesty, Emperor, Marduk, and so on...etc
Yall should react to The Summoning by Sleep Token
I would recommend "Bloodbath - Cry My Name"
Next check out Blackbirds if you haven't heard or seen. I saw them live and they are amazing 😊
Cant spell the rest rn but you can find it with that
Amon Amarth is Mount Doom in common Gondor
The vocals get a lil redundant.
They aren't Viking metal. They're melodic death metal.
I don't remember right 😂
Good death metal is such a good remedy. Any time you experience some cringey, annoying bullshit just put some in.
Recomend this music
Amon Amarth - Destroy Of The Universe
Viking was a job, not a race. Read the Havamal and the Poetic Edda for a better understanding.
