Amon Amarth!!!!

[88and308]

I just got "The Crusher" a couple of weeks ago...damn fine album!!!! Makes Metallica look soft!!!

I have an order for "Once Sent from the Golden Hall"....with a name like this, it's gotta be good!!!

[GreenHeart]

Metallica IS soft, I hate those fuckers, especially for their problems with the file-sharing stuff, they are the ones who brought napster down, just because they won't be getting enough money for their drugs any more........

I really do hate these commercial MTV bands like them.

[Legio_Melita]

hahahaha, since when are Metallica NOT soft? they're fuckin pussies! if you want something hard with balls, listen to some Grindcore!

[Strasser]

I picked up Once Sent from the Golden Hall some months ago. I think you'll like it.

[Ederico]

Is it true Amon Amarth had some non-White members, I never heard this band, I just read that at the Einherjer website posted by someone.

[Zyklop]

Does anyone here know Amon Amarth from Sweden? It´s one of the greatest Death Metal bands ever (alongside Dissection) in my opinion. They play a very melodic style while avoiding to sound pathetic. Highly recommendable!

Lyrically they mostly focus on Norse mythology.

Where Silent Gods Stand Guard

The last head falls to the ground
No one is left alive
They thought that they could take me down
But it's not my time to die

I wipe the blood from my sword
And slide it in my belt
This is the sweetest of rewards
The best rush I have felt

Ten men are dead by my feet
I smell their streaming blood
And I smile, cause it makes me...
...makes me feel so good

They were crawling on their knees
Begging for their pathetic lives
Now their souls belong to me
As well as their eyes

Each man has something that I crave
I eat their steaming eyes
And drink their blood to make them my slaves
At Oden's feat in afterlife

I bring the skulls to my shrine
Where silent Gods stand guard
Soak them in blood and in wine - A sacrificial ritual

One thousand heads are on display
Collected through years of thirst
Macabre trophies from my prey
Picked clean of flesh by Oden's birds

I am - I am - A wolf in human shape
I am - I am - A predator with flaming rage

[Lead Mikkonen]

I'm a wolf in human shape - Every man is prey
A predator with flaming rage - Blood is in my trace

I will die with sword in hand
And then my seat's secured
When Oden calls from golden hall
He will greet me at the door


Down The Slopes Of Death

Down the slopes of death he rides
The eight hooves pound like drums
Darkness reigns the crumbling sky
Invasion has begun

Fields of flames greets his eye
He smells the fear and pain
Of dying men in agony
It can drive a man insane

All enemies flee his spear
No bow nor axe do harm
Allfather rides out on fields of fear
When Heimdal sounds the alarm

But on the field waits his fate
Foretold in ancient times
A beast with sharp yellow teeth
And hateful burning yes

Today he'll draw his final breath
The wisest God of all
His son will avenge his death
Iormundr's brother will fall

He knows now what is to come
No use to try and run
What is to be, let it be done!
What is to be, let it be done!

Today he'll draw his final breath
The wisest God of all
His son will avenge his death
Iormundr's brother will fall

Down the slopes of death he rides
The eight hooves pound like drums
Darkness reigns the crumbling sky
Invasion has begun

Down the slopes of death he rides
The eight hooves pound like drums
Darkness reigns the crumbling sky
No more is the sun

I've been thinking about getting that album, or perhaps The Crusher.
