I'm expecting it to be more or less the same as Berserker, but I hope I'm wrong, I will listen to it anyway because it's Amon Amarth and I usually enjoy them anyway.

The new song was ok. No good hooks sadly.
That kind of artwork you dont usually see in a metal band. Using a photograph and photoshop. Not my taste..

Agreed. Feels like they've run out of ideas over the last decade or so. Still, they are great fun to listen to!

Since Jomsviking they have just sounded like they're playing on autopilot. Maybe asking for structural variety in an AA album is laughable but they have the musical skill to write better songs.

Interesting that they've released a single that is not included on the album.

Which one?

I mean I guess “Put Your Back Into The Oar” could be a standalone single, but that’s a little strange IMO when releasing an album so close to it.

To be honest with Jomsvking I usually grew tired of that band. Previous albums always brought that huge wave of viking energy and then, nothing but boredom? I still enjoy listening to Twilight of the thunder gods, Surtur rising and the likes but for me this band is over.

One of my favorite bands has fallen so far...

Amon Amarth is a rare band where all of their songs sound the same, but I still like them.
