Fredrik Andersson still has a charming tendency to overplay bass drums, however. The efficiency here approaches that of pop music. But the band switches speeds enough to prevent monotony. The driving pulse of "Free Will Sacrifice" evokes a down-tuned Judas Priest; "Guardians of Asgaard" is a mid-paced march with a surprisingly tender solo. Though Amon Amarth sometimes get tagged as "death metal," that's not really accurate. Some of their riffs recall the sturm und drang of early Swedish death metal, and Hegg's vocal approach is pure death metal.
But the band's sound is rather uplifting. Even its songs about death are stirring-- think Valhalla, not hell.
This spirit is probably what has enabled Amon Amarth to amass an astoundingly loyal following. At a recent sold-out show at New York's Irving Plaza, the band had a 1,strong crowd singing along.
This album is so powerful it leaves me in awe. There is a dvd also, Amon Amarth at Summmer Breeze I feel fortunate to have seen this band in St Paul at Station 4 recently, so it was amazing to see their performance in front of a crowd of thousands. Buy this cd if you like metal. Buy this cd! It is incrdible! Read full review. I really enjoy this album, it's gotten me more into Amon Amarth. I didn't know the band's music that well when I ordered this but it has led me to getting other albums if theirs and I still come back to this album, usually what I have playing in my truck when driving.
