Amon Amarth - Amon Amarth

Amon Amarth - Amon Amarth

from
Once sent from the golden hall


A storm rolls in from the sea
Covering the land with black thunder clouds
Rain whips the ground at their feet
As they come ashore in this foreign land

Thunder brakes the silence Of five hundred men assembled on shore
Gazing through the misty rain
At the mountain not a mile away
So dark and silent it stands there
The mighty AMON AMRATH
Reaching for the cloudcloked skies
So grim and fearful in might

With the wind in their backs they start walking
Decisive men of the north
They strive through this darkend land
With only mount doom in their sight
The closer they get to the mountain
The clearer their eyes can see
A forest of one thousand spears awaiting
Awaiting the battle that will be

A cry of war emerges
Echoes over the field
Boldley charging the enemy lines

With weapons so fearsome and sharp in their hands
And shields of oakwood and steel
They slit open stomachs and split sculls to the jaw
Intestants cover the field

The defenders are weak in this brutal war
The northmen have power and guts
A bloodshed like no one has seen here before
None can escape their cuts

Arrows with fire fly through the air
Touching houses and shields
The vikings can feel victory is near
As the enemy headlessly flees

A gust of wind blows in from the north
Clearing the clouds away
As twilight falls and the stars come forth
And the seawolves return to the bay

Corpses lie scattered all over the field
For the ravens to eat as they please
The mountain is now left there behind
As they sail with the first morning breeze

3 guys are in a cafe,

one says: I've got the smallest arm in the world!

another says: I've got the smallest head in the world!

last one says: I'm the most musical talented in the world!

The 3 guys go to Guinness World Records.

First one goes first and returns happy: I really have the smallest arm in the world!

Second returns happy too: I really have the smallest head of the world!

The last one returns angry and screams: WHO THE F**K IS AMON AMARTH!?

metal is stupid and talentless.

lol just kidding. just wanted to know what it was like to be so stupid

[MrSupercastro]

@78messi78 I was ill informed, my bad. And who does care? At least Hegg knows whats cool. By the way, how intense does this get at about 4:25? Easily my favourite part of the song.

[iceshades]

my taste in metal has been changing a lot along the years... but wow, AA has stayed there among the best bands all this time!! great stuff and undying beauty!

[78messi78]

@MrSupercastro i have to say: sry no. Johan Hegg said, that no one of them is a big LotR fan but they think its a cool name :D

so who cares? \m/

Love the song, love the band ALL HAIL THE MIGHTY AMON AMARTH!!!!!!!

[MrSupercastro]

@Tjalfi999 Um yep, they probably have, as most educated/arts-inclined generally folks partake in important literature. And if they haven't, who gives a fuck

[Tjalfi999]

I love and respect this band as one of the greatest bands ever.

But seriously, did they even read The Lord of the Rings? Let alone The Silmarillion?

[Eistee4sisch]

So dark and silent, it stands ther, the mighty AMON AMARTH! \m/

[DeborahAPS]
