amon amarth rules

[ANGEL OF DESEASE]

I saw them live in 2008 with Dimmu Borgir. Was really a cool viking drunk show

[Hugo.]

I saw them with entombed in November. I was sober and on my own, but i enjoyed the fuck out of it anyway. They seem like cool blokes, even if the dude butchered the guitar solo in twilight of the thundergod.

[Mr. P]

Everytime I have seen them live have been the best moments of that particular year.

a fellating lover of mine covered Thousand Years of Oppression on his myspace a long time ago, i didn't even know about amon amarth and thought the song was something he made



it's pretty cool if anyone wants to check it out - <!-- m -->http://www.myspace.com/bonemill<!-- m -->

Did he actually try to play it the way Roope played it? I always figured they'd just do something else.

His attempt was similar, but watered down and poorly executed to boot.

That bonemill dude used to post on Nile bard.

[zim]

i know, he once told me about how you criticized him. you mean person you.

[Verbal]

I remember him saying something about how The Burning Pits Of The Duat wouldn't be that hard, or something. And he was invited to post an video. He did eventually post a preliminary version which was far from complete. I remeber asking him how his cover of it was coming along. Ask him that for me.

[zim]

i rarely talk to him but i'll ask next time i run into him

[Meat Engine]

The only album from these fellows that I thought meh was Fate of Norns. The last two have really shown an effort to improve, though With Oden On Our Side was probably more enjoyable.

[rhino]

i liked fate of norns, ecspecially the title track. i remember reading that the band was actually on the verge of breaking up during that time

[User]

haha, i am jamming out to the crusher, and bastards of a lying breed just finished when i clicked this link. arms and feet are flailing.



fucking great band, so many good albums. i still regret not going to see them when they came here.



MASTERS ... MASTERS .... MASTERS OF WAAAARRRRR :horns::::::::::

[Meat Engine]

The Annihilation of Hammerfest is a winning live song.

[Haunty]

I've seen them at least 3 times live. Best live band out there, pretty much, at least in terms of how apefuck you go when they play.

[Syysysyd]

yeah theyre aight

[bills bro]

i have them as my wake up song on my alarm clock they're one of the few metal bands i still listen to.

[Bathsalt Zombie]

I don't mind them, I haven't really given them a fair chance to be honest with you all.

[Meat Engine]

There's not really a progression in sound, so you can start anywhere. The songwriting gets better, and the overall package is more polished as one progresses through the catalog. If I had to rank the albums based on my enjoyment, it would probably be:



With Oden On Our Side

Twilight of the Thundergod

Versus the World

The Crusher

Once Sent From the Golden Hall

The Avenger

Fate of Norns
