Whoaah!!

This is a GREAT album from the Amon guys and it is 100% recommended for any metalhead no matter what kind of genre you like! Ever since I heard Valhall awaits me, I ordered the album beforehand from Metalblade. Crushing melodies, killer atmosphere and viking spirit keeps you going for many months. Get your copy now!!

I'm listening to it right now and what a rush! Heavy, majestic and melodic tunes with great vocals makes me a happy listener. Top of the line metal. :dio:

I can't wait to hear this. How does it compare against, say, Once Sent From the Golden Hall?

A phenomenal effort, and a step above Fate of Norns to my ears. I love the more aggressive feel to this album. This will certainly be in contention for album of the year from me.

Empowering music, Amon Amarth have not made a bad album yet.

Better than Fate of Norns, certainly nowhere near as good as albums like the Crusher.

Hmm, looks like it's worth checking. I'm actually pretty excited about this, I hope I'll find it from here.

Quite a bit of progress, I'd say. Stylistically speaking, there's more atmosphere and Hegg uses a greater vocal range. Production-wise it's a much richer, fuller sound, which complements very well. Nothing like really hearing that angry Viking horde descending upon you.

One of my friends loved Fate of Norns, so I've actually heard a decent amount of Amon Amarth despite the fact that I don't own anything by them...I'm very tempted to pick this up. Looks like it's really good...
