Amon amarth doesn't even call their own music viking metal, but just melodic death metal. They may have viking inspired lyrics, but they are still a melodic death metal band.
I only make this comment to provoke thought, Is Amon Amarth viking metal as you call it becuase of Lyrical content or musical content. Do you consider Led Zepplin Immigrant song to be viking metal or even metal?
why start genre raping each other. your bull-crap sectist stuff drives metal into factions. not a good idea for the hope of music. real fucking metal one one side, false metal and everything else on the other. why try and classify 2 good bands, or any number of bands, when quite simply, its metal or it aint. respect theyre good points, and enjoy the difference. why compare CC to iron maiden, or amon amarth to this, its semi pointless and mindnumbing. stop biching, start banding together.
@Kenko87 good observation good sir, for it was us NORWEGIANS who found America, there might have been a few sweds along with htem but yeah it was the Norwegians.
@Petasucksballs91367 yes, a norwegian viking was the first one to find america (indeed vikings could rule the earth, and they ruled the oceans). But ofcourse, he didnt care about such a poor land, instead colombus was a big idiot who came here seeking heaven and destroying every indian civilization..... i wish that would never have happened and see how mayas and other Indian civilizations became powerful, haha
listen to 3:07-3:42 really loud!! its funny, when i listen to this album on my cd player i always have to play that part over and over and over and over.....
I like this band, I feel this is the direction Finntroll is headed with Vreth writing their lyrics now. I fell in love with scandinavian folk metal when i heard Finntroll. The humpah party shit was good and I wish they sould keep that up. But their new direction toward the fantasy/historical tale is nice. This band has had that from the start apparently and it is a very good direction!
Your right, they brough Katla into the band to write the lyrics in Ur jordens Djup. Ive heard theyr working on new material not sure who does 'em now but it would be nice if Katla did couse them lyrics are brutal!!
there is not such thing as pagan or viking metal its folk metal stupid noob . And brits do have some viking blood from all the rape and pillage that was done there by vikings
@Metalscavenger Hey, actually i believe Amon Amarth made up some kind of new genre(so many sub-genres now days xD but indeed they are very different), lets say its "viking metal"
Amon Amarth does sound melodic and death, but its totally different from the normal melodic death metal bands (just compare Amon Amarth to Children of Bodom or Kalmah xD)
Listen to "Wulfgar" please, it sounds a lot like Amon Amarth, and its a great band too
@Metalscavenger Lol! you are a funny guy. Just to let you know, i dont really care about you, but about the comment, and specially about the band :) [I HATE IGNORANCE]
sorry for being rude, but im used to people being like that to me on youtube, hehe
@Metalscavenger its awesomness, one of the reasons is because they sound very unique and different to anytihng else, if u cant see that then you dont know abo0ut music
@Metalscavenger i'd say that rather than melodic death (this make me think of children of bodom and so on), amon amarth is death metal with melodies xD
Historical speaking though there is alot of genetic similiarities between Scandivians, British, and Normans. Since the Vikings colonized all these areas and interbred with the population it has created esentially a viking world to say. So take the battle of hastings for example, that is not Saxons vs Normans, that's vikings vs vikings.
On the northeastern coasts of England up to scotland the males is said to be like 30 - 40 % scandinavian atleast, but far into the country, like london etc and those places there not such thing at all. Along the normandy you could say people are abit scandinavian aswell...
Anyone with an ear that's trained from listening this kind of metal will surely instantly recognize the difference between a drinking song, a viking warrior tale, an epic song, and so on :P
