Holy f*cking christ, I rarely do listen to Amon Amarth, but this CD has got me hooked. It's really odd though, because a lot of the riffs and songs don't really sound like their older stuff. It's very melodic which is why I like it so much and I can get past his viking voice. An absolutely MUST have cd if you like Metal, screw that...you can't just like metal. YOU HAVE TO LOVE IT.

Valhall awaits me, mother f*ckers.

One of the best Death Metal albums ever

I've had a qoute from it in my sig now for a good while.

Are any of their other cd's similar to this one? Mostly in the song: Cry Of The Black Birds, because that's such an amazing song. If I found other songs like that on other cd's, I'd definitely would get them also.

"Across the rainbow bridge" is more melodic than usual and it's off of the Vs. The World album.

"Thousand Years Opression" might be another one you'd like.


I'm surprised you didn't call them Amon Amarath here :P

I was messing with you by calling them that, you of all people know that I've never really listened to them other than "Pursuit of Vikings."

All of their albums are awesome, but the more melodic ones would definately be Sorrow Throughout the Nine Worlds (1995) and The Avenger (1999)... I'm really a fan of their more epic heavy songs, like "Asator" and "The Sound of Eight Hooves" (on Crusher), but there are some of the more melodic ones that send shivers down your spine. Like "The Last With Pagan Blood", "Pursuit of Vikings" and "The Mighty Doors of the Speargod's Hall"... Check it out man!
