    Johan is such a kind and down-to-earth guy. I worked at Wacken 2022 (where Amon Amarth played a surprise gig as "Guardians of Asgaard") as a camera technician for the livestreaming. He gave an interview in the artist area in a tv tent where I was responsible for the technical production. He was really relaxed and did some smalltalk with the whole production crew. On stage he really appears like a big bulky guy but first I didn't even reccognize him because he looks SO different in real life. Later that day he came back to the interview tent because he thouht one of his mates lost some personal things there. I was quite suprised to see him there again. I will never forget the Wacken livestream production where I met so many of my heroes and shook hands with them. Thanks to Johan for some really nice smalltalk!

I think the reason Amon Amarth alone are referred to as Viking metal is not just the lyrics but the passion the band have for I guess their cultural/mythological roots, and even some of the songs somehow sound perfectly in place were they in a Viking time.

      +atgod6 Yeah, I do the same. I actually have playlists for sub genres I listen a lot to. Makes it a lot easier to pick out some music to listen to, depending on what you want at that time.
