A brand-new, shiny and thoroughly exciting topic for Amon Amarth! The last question asked on the original topic was:

"So did anyone go to that night with Amon Amarth tour in the U.S. Was it boring? Good?"

Discuss!

Yeah he seems to despise the term quite passionately. It's nice to see that he isn't propagating the nonsensical term.

its created by media even modern mainstream labels, magazines etc
like I always say genre its guitar sound, or instrument sound nothing more, same I hate when ppl says what is black metal, like posers Venom and Marduy guitarist ''to me if even saxon will have satabnic lyrics it will be black metal'' what a idiot

Progressive metal implies experimentation? That's news to me. Last time I checked experimental / avant-garde means experimenting and non-standard. Some of the most generic, non-experimental music in the world is progressive metal.

Wtf???? Amon Amrath progressive? hahahahahaha that's the biggest laugh I ever had. Standard generic melodic death metal. How the fuck can that be progressive? Even for Bathory that is totally ridiculous.


It is like Godbuster calling Armored Saint progreive because they are soundwise in betwen Iron Maiden and Judas Priest. Yep that gy truly is the biggest moron on the MS forums.

Thiose albums aren't progressive at all, either. How the bleeping bleep bleep are those albums progressive? You might as well call Celtic Frost, Venom, Metallica, Mercyful Fate progressive if you call Venom Wannabee bathory progressive

They werre just crap simple as that.

But back to the music there was nothing progressive at all about them. No progressive chord changes etc. yes it might have been SLIGHTLY different to anything before that but that does not make it progressive. HE was still withinn the bounds of what extreme metal was at the time and didn't break the chains at all.

But you are too young to see that. (using the age card you Always use)

When you boil it down it's basically a form of folk metal, albeit viking themed.

I love both Bathory and Amon Amarth, although the latter keep on usingthe same fucking riffs. Bathory were a truly influential band.
