      If Thor Rag would have been a serious movie, yes, but since it wasn’t AA would have been a waste. Plus mainstream just will NOT use anything with growler vocals, even if it’s incredible like AA. It’s silly

      Never thought of them as death metal, far too melodic. Death metal makes me think of bands like Cannibal Corpse and Napalm Death who I can't stand, I can actually listen to Amon Amarth even though I don't like the vocal style.

      What actually makes it still death metal at all though? It's nowhere near as heavy as those death, you can actually make out with the vocalist is saying, the drums aren't as intense, it loses the very essence of death metal?

    In old Norse mythology, Jörmundgandr (or the Midgard Serpent) is a monstrous snake, that encircles the Earth (Midgard) and biting its own tail. When it releases its tail, Ragnarök will begin. The last meeting between the serpent and Thor is predicted to occur at Ragnarök, when Jörmungandr will come out of the sea and poison the ocean and the sky. Thor will kill Jörmungandr and then walk nine paces before falling dead, having been poisoned by the serpent's venom.

    All of their songs are stories. You can listen to any of them for viking stories. Listen to 'Fate of Norns' and get hit by the feels. Listen to 'the Hero' and understand the mercenary with a turn of heart. Listen to 'Under the Northern Star' and sail with a viking at night.
    Seriously man. Where most metal is filled up with religiousness, rebelliousness, anger, or something edgy or whatever...Amon Amarth and a few other bands are just telling badass stories with the intensity they deserve.
    They're all good.

I noticed their album surtur's rising on the shelf. I thought "well this look's pretty cool. If it sucks at least it's only 10 dollars." Best 10 dollars I have ever spent.

    That a boy. I absolutely knew you'd dig it. It's seriously surging with energy, and I promise, while a great deal of their songs are equally as energizing, while telling the myths, lore and fables of a culture not given much exposure through the mainstream. So, all that being said, while keeping the lyrics in mind for each other song you listen to by them, you should definitely, DEFINITELY, check out Guardians of Asgaard, God's of War Arise, Loki's Treachery (Hermod's Ride to Hel), Where Silent Gods Stand Guard, The Hero, but most of all (which is a hard thing for me to say), Tattered Banners Bloody Flags.

Fun fact; I have seen Amon Amarth at least 8 times. The day this album dropped, (October 2009, cant remeber the date) I saw them play at Slims in San Fransisco. I was front row, BELTING out this song, the singer, legendary Johann Hegg reached out to me. I thought he was going for the Viking handshake (one finger up the arm so you know if they had a dagger), and PULLED ME ONSTAGE. He held the mic between us as wee belted out"TWILIGHT OF THE THUNDERGOD" Coolest thing ever.

    Btw funny Story about me finding out Amon exists :
    My old Latin Teacher alowed us in one lesson to play music while working ... everyone wanted to take some , pardon, Chart-Shit no one knows anymore today . My Teacher almost wanted to instant end the "music allowed Lesson" until i suggested Rammstein
    He was surprised that I suggested it and asked me after the lesson how it came so
    Well i just love them , they are one of my alltime loves (New Album End 2018/Beginning 2019 !!!!)
    Then he said :
    Oh cool , my alltime Fav is Amon Amarth
    Me : Who are they ?
    Teacher : Oh shit , u don't know them .... well i'm your teacher , so i'll teach u now : forget todays homework, Listen to this
    Twighlight of the Thundergod
    I will always Thank my wiking like looking Latin teacher for getting me into Amon Amarth

      Atilla Durkaya I found out my history teacher was a Amon Amarth fan pretty recently. He sang some lyrics from Raise Your Horns from the Jomsviking album while he was working, and then I sang the next ones. He replied with something along the lines of “I’m so glad that you listen to that album”

      Hippie Grinder 669 But Darkthrone and Mayhem are still from Norway. Singing in English obviously enables a wider audience to enjoy your music so it's not really that strange that most bands sing in English, not really relevant though.
      Compare our freaking populations and then how many metal bands there are in respective countries. Fact is there's waaaaaaaaaaay more metal bands per capita in the Scandinavian countries than anywhere else in the world. (www.gislounge.com/map-of-heavy-metal-bands-by-country-per-capita/)

    Bathory; their album "Blood Fire Death" is the first official viking metal album. Being released in 1988, it had influences of old school metal and folk music and is generally a little slower than "normal" metal. Some songs you should check out is the title track "Blood Fire Death" or "A Fine Day To Die"
