I agree, but i do think everything beyond Twilight was just copy paste.. Surtur has some good songs on it, Deceiver a few just.. What came after is not even interesting.. Guess their message isnt speaking to me anymore..
Imo it's really hard to pick out only 10 out of all riffs. I get chills down my spine from like 80% of Amon Amarth's songs(not that I don't like the rest, but they're not top tier) Great job with everything! :)
*My TOP 10* 1- the pursuit of vikings 2- as loke falls 3- twilight of the thunder god 4- runes to my memory 5- the way of the Vikings 6- cry of the black birds 7- deceiver of the gods 8- death in fire 9- guardians of asgard 10- first kill
Death in Fire is my favourite song to play, the tapping section and the solo are just epic. Just learned Bleed for Ancient Gods (minus the solo) so it was cool seeing you play it here haha
+EricAxel36 Yes Death in Fire is really great to play, that Verse riff is quite hard though if you play it like they do in fast alternate picking on 2 strings, that's the only thing that keep me from doing a cover haha
I was hoping and praying one of the riffs would be Pursuit of Vikings. That song is what introduced me to Amon Amarth when it randomly started playing on my Spotify. To this day that's the only song that I don't regret Spotify randomly choosing for me. I also recently found out a few months ago my family's line dates back to Varangian Vikings, and it's awesome to listen to this music and be like "YES, MY PEOPLE" even if I wasn't born in the North.
My personal favourite is the mid-part riff/solo from Pursuit Of Vikings, i'm a bit surprised that its not on the list. But anyways great choice and well played ;)
"Last With Pagan Blood" riff at the end would be in the top 10 for me, also the intro to "Thor Arise" would be too, but at the end of the day it's all pretty subjective and you did one helluva job playing those riffs! kudos
Jus discovered Among Amarth today and have been listening to them all day then this pops of such a great band and easily going to climb its way into my top 5
Yessss! You should totally do some lessons on their songs if you haven't already good sir :)! BTW been watching some of your videos for a bit, thought I'd say I love your LTD, think you should get a 7 string, and you are a great player \m/ keep it up.
How do you even choose a top 10 with a band like this, like,i love every single riff of them haha, awesome playing man, i am already subscribe to you so i can learn some stuff that i cant get by my own lml, ,oh,and sorry for my english, i try my best but its not my natal language and i dont study it properly Dx ,i just wanna say thanks for all! ^^/
+Prosodia It was very hard to choose only 10 riff haha I think there is not one song that I dislike too. Thanks for the support man i really appreciate it! \m/
The riff in Gods of War Arise accompanying the lyrics, “The day draws to an end, the night comes dark and cold, we return to our ships with silver, slaves and gold” is also pretty rad
1. Fate of Norns 2. The Pursuit of Vikings 3. Cry of the Black Birds 4. Embrace of the Endless Ocean 5. Siegreicher Marsch 6. Twilight of the Thunder God 7. Runes to my Memory 8. Hermod's Ride to Hel 9. Guardians of Asgaard 10. Death in Fire
+Benjamin Sherman Well the floyd's arm gets REALLY loose really quickly and that annoyw the shit out of me, other than that the emgs have a really nice agressive sound with distortion, they are also really sensitive which gives a lot of sustain but there can be a lot of noise when soloing, on the other hand that forces you to play cleaner :)
lol Yeah i have two guitars with floyds and it can be annoying when they flop around. I have an LTD H-1007fr I'm thinking of changing out the emgs for some fastback beardcombers.
Hey, as long as I'm watching Amon Amarth covers on youtube probalby I've never seen anyone playing such great! Your guitar sound so much like Amon Amarth's - which gear do you use besides guitar? I see, you use the same strings as Amon - 0,012 to 0,062 :)
12 to 60* yeah those strings are great even for drop A There is not much to say about my gear, I don't use real amp when I record, I tried to match the sound of each song only with Guitar Rig and the plug ins in cubase!
"And Soon the World Will Cease to Be" when he sings 'from the east, comes a ship, Loki holds the oar, a demon army with swords that rip will join the final war, the army of the dead arrives, heimdall blows his horn, calling gods, out to die, before the world can be reborn"
Amon amarth are terrific riffs writers....
Another great riff band, Running Wild. King Diamond.
@@mussunmussun3536 Running Wild is Great.
It's hard to think of a bad Amon Amarth song. I have listened to them for years and they are fast becoming my favourite bands.
aloadofhapablap not a fan of where is your god
Same here
same !
I agree, but i do think everything beyond Twilight was just copy paste.. Surtur has some good songs on it, Deceiver a few just.. What came after is not even interesting.. Guess their message isnt speaking to me anymore..
@@Forferdelse666 I think all of it after is great
no Tattered Banners and Bloody Flags? Heresy!
I love this song! =)
I was thinking the same thing!
All the riffs from TOTTG are kickass, especially Tattered Banners Bloody Flags especially with the theme of the song
truth
I agree, Tattered is by far my favorite song of Thunder God. And the title track is also one of their best songs ever.
While listening to this video, I smile because it makes me feel so good!
Always end my practice sessions with Thousand Years of Oppression. Still my favorite to play on guitar 17 years later.
I love the solo in “Under the Northern Star”
4:10 second you hear that you know heads will start rolling
Imo it's really hard to pick out only 10 out of all riffs. I get chills down my spine from like 80% of Amon Amarth's songs(not that I don't like the rest, but they're not top tier) Great job with everything! :)
+Velzizar That's what is so special about this band :)
Friends of the Suncross is a gem
*My TOP 10*
1- the pursuit of vikings
2- as loke falls
3- twilight of the thunder god
4- runes to my memory
5- the way of the Vikings
6- cry of the black birds
7- deceiver of the gods
8- death in fire
9- guardians of asgard
10- first kill
Victorious March?
3 isn't twilight of the thunder god it's war gods.
@@Acularis it was my Fav AA songs from 1 to 10
What about raise your horns?
Death in Fire is my favourite song to play, the tapping section and the solo are just epic. Just learned Bleed for Ancient Gods (minus the solo) so it was cool seeing you play it here haha
+EricAxel36 Yes Death in Fire is really great to play, that Verse riff is quite hard though if you play it like they do in fast alternate picking on 2 strings, that's the only thing that keep me from doing a cover haha
I’m convinced that any Amon Amarth song with a bird in the title Is good
Great playing dude!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Tattered Banners Bloody Flags is sorely missing
My personal favorite is the Runes to my Memory main two riffs, I'm glad they're on the list.
Same
and also another song of theirs that was definitely to be on the list, which is "as Loke Falls"
god u nailed it! surprised to hear bleed for ancient gods, one of ma favourite, well played man
I was hoping and praying one of the riffs would be Pursuit of Vikings. That song is what introduced me to Amon Amarth when it randomly started playing on my Spotify. To this day that's the only song that I don't regret Spotify randomly choosing for me.

Live without regrets, Töck's taunt, Hel are great ones aswell
I can see On A Sea of Blood being on this list now, its chorus and bridge are just so damn good.
2019 update: Way of Vikings
My personal favourite is the mid-part riff/solo from Pursuit Of Vikings, i'm a bit surprised that its not on the list. But anyways great choice and well played ;)
Couldn't put the whole song unfortunately x) But yeah that part is pretty iconic too, typical Amon Amarth melodic riff
Hi, Fearskill! What did you use except guitar in this video?
wheres as loke falls???????
ALex Kai and Free will sacrifice
ALex Kai and also under the northern star
yes!!!
And Where Is Your God?
As loke falls one of the greatest AA song
Well played. I´m really into AA, so You just got yourself a new subscriber. :) Keep It Metal!
"Last With Pagan Blood" riff at the end would be in the top 10 for me, also the intro to "Thor Arise" would be too, but at the end of the day it's all pretty subjective and you did one helluva job playing those riffs! kudos
Jus discovered Among Amarth today and have been listening to them all day then this pops of such a great band and easily going to climb its way into my top 5
love the intro riff to Death in Fire more than that middle riff but that’s probably just my preference, great vid tho!
the heavy riff in the second half of Thousand years of Oppression is one of my favorites tbh
notes,voice set up,clean hits and no mistake... everything is soooo perfect musicazm here!
They have the Best riffs in metal ,all are awesome
Wrath of the Norseman? The part at 2:29 is just BRUTAL!
So many more awesome ones by Amon Amarth there! Great playing!! \m/
Yessss! You should totally do some lessons on their songs if you haven't already good sir :)! BTW been watching some of your videos for a bit, thought I'd say I love your LTD, think you should get a 7 string, and you are a great player \m/ keep it up.

The biggest surprise of this list for me was Bleed for Ancient Gods, and, I can sense that that was a personal pick.
The pursuit of vikings definitely the best song for me! That riff always makes me feel like a fucking viking in my own ship towards the war

My personal favorite has to be the main rift and the rift right after the intro of Blood Eagle. So much fun to play
