AMON AMARTH @ SUMMIT MUSIC HALL 4/17/11 DENVER-CO

“Ever will I gods blaspheme, Freyja methinks a dog does seem. Freyja a dog? Aye! Let them be, Both dogs together Odin and she!” Amon Amarth are a melodic death metal band from Sweden. Formed in the early 90’s, these Vikings have been releasing album after album of pure tumultuous heaviness. Their latest “Surtur Rising,” it’s a sea of super heaviness coated with an ensemble of melody, a viking atmosphere that makes the very earth shudder, it gives you an urge to grab a battle ax and pillage a town.
