Amon Amarth - The Great Heathen Army

I listened to this album a few times now and I really want to 'Get in the Ring' with each one of them and knock them out.

Putt your jeans, letter jacket on, put a beard oil, let your hair loose, put the mjölner around the neck and go in the Swedish forest. Read a lyrics and it's viking stories our history.
Band created riffs, maybe not best album, but ok. Each h album has something interesting.
Heidrun. Serpents Trail and Vikings n Saxons are best songs here. Biff Byford delivers there.

The second half of the album is less painful to listen to.

I don't know. All songs on here are just boring to me. Deceiver, Berserker and Jomsviking are killers compared to this.

I think the songs order is not good their best are the last, and the biggest mistake is they not include Put Your Back Into the Oar.... but after a couple of listen a seeing some songs live a kind of like it but clearly their weakest albums.

Such an underrated album! One of my favourite Amon Amarth albums and one of the best albums of the last year. Unfortunately the fans has a different opinion.

This is my first amon amarth album and i really liked it. Loved the riffs and the vocals. If this one is getting bad reviews I shiver to think how good their previous albums are. If I had only one complaint, I would remove the folk element altogether and just keep the death metal elements.

This albums is Good viking metal. Sure it's perhaps their weakest but still really enjoyable and I found myself moshing to many songs. Best song in the album is Find a Way or Make One.
