Amon Amarth is a viking-themed melodic death metal band from Sweden founded in 1990 in Tumba, named after a location in J. R. R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth. The name means “Mount Doom” in Sindarin.
The five Swedish musicians are known for their songs based on Norse Mythology, with such tunes as The Arrival of The Fimbul Winter, Pursuit of Vikings and Versus the World. This is an element that originally emerged as a sub-genre of black metal known as viking metal in the early 1990s, made popular by such bands as Enslaved, although the band themselves do not actually exemplify the genre’s sound.
Formed under the name Scum, they switched to the name Amon Amarth in 1992 and released a demo recording, The Arrival of Fimbul Winter, in 1994, selling all 1000 demo discs in less than 12 hours. With the release of the album Once Sent From the Golden Hall in 1998 their popularity rose on an international level and since has brought forth multiple U.S. tours, three music videos and appearances in over 100 metal magazines.
Their latest album, With Oden on our Side was released in 2006 on September 22nd (Germany/Austria/Switzerland) / September 25th (Europe) / October 5th (Canada).

Fair enough. I don't know most of their music. I came here to check them out based on a friend's recommendation and I only listened to one song (
Free Will Sacrifice. That song does have a very simple, predictable structure, and the artist pic above I guess made me think of power metal.

Metal4ever88 说：
@ tihsymtae: I agree with part of what you're saying, namely the whole mainstream thing. I too, never understood people's reactions to metal bands who are mainstream. I listen to some bands who could be described as such (Trivium, Shadows Fall, DragonForce, etc.), and quite frankly, I don't give a flying fuck about what all the "uber kvlt" metalheads have to say to me about it. As for you describing AA's music, you are so off the mark my friend. Comparing their song structures to that of pop music is just an insult. They are melodic death metal for fucking crying out loud, just different from other bands as h3llb3nt_2_k1ll says. Shit, if pop music was this good, I'd be a happy camper! :P
-
h3llb3nt_2_k1ll 说：
Pop Metal?? huh! Probably you might have listened to just a song or two.. even though I disagree with the term 'Pop Metal'. They're melodic death metal yet very different from other bands in that genre such as Dark Tranquillity, In Flames and stuff.. they don't sound like Bathory, Enslaved, TYR or any of them Viking Metal bands.. still they kick some royal ass!! I have seen them live recently.. they rawk on stage!! \m/
-
tihsymtae 说：
And if you think my charts are "mainly mainstream" you need to look closer. It's true that some of the music I listen to is mainstream. But I think some mainstream music is good. And I think it's childish to avoid an artist simply because they are popular. But more than half of my top-50 are not in the Last-fm top-400. In that sense, most of what I listen to is not mainstream.
-
tihsymtae 说：
*Sigh* I wasn't denigrating them. But I think they tend to have very predictable song-structures which I associate with Pop music, and they sound like the soundtrack to a Renaissance fair which I associate with Power Metal. The vocals, I grant, are death metal vocals. But that's it. And again, I'm not denigrating them. I'm just describing.
-
TheTrooper1138 说：
lol, coming from someone who has mainly mainstream bullshit in his charts.. of course they're (melodic) Death Metal, what else would they be! And they kick most of your charts' asses any day!
-
tihsymtae 说：
Power metal. Pop metal. Maybe even Pop-Death. But I certainly wouldn't call them Death Metal.
-
Battalions 说：
The lyrical theme of a band doesn't define their genre. Amon Amarth is indeed (melodic) death metal. If you are looking for some viking metal, go listen to Bathory's Hammerheart.
-
pui_de_zmeu 说：
don't label a band with just one genre AA is melodic death metal as sound, and viking metal as lyrics, TYR is folk metal and viking metal through their lyrics too.
-
unbekannterNr2 说：
---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0I1geB7U5VI viking metal.. i dont see many similarities to amon amarth's music
-
unbekannterNr2 说：
omg.. actually hegg said they are just a normal death metal band.. their songs are about vikings.. but it does not make them be a viking-metal band... and whats your problem with my mother?
-
pui_de_zmeu 说：
this band made me grow a beard.

kendall27pania 说：
Estupid Amon Amarth is Viking Metal...Your Mother Sucks
-
unbekannterNr2 说：
what the hell xD amon amarth is no viking metal -_____________- it is just (melodic) death metal... if you want to hear viking metal, so listen to tyr or anything like this, but not amon amarth!
