Fuck that, we need AA during a full-minute scene of Tormund slaughtering an army group! Don't get me wrong, he was badass af is yesterday's episode, but we need more!
I recently saw my favorite band Ghost in concert and these guys were the opener, I’ve never heard of these guys until then…and after seeing them live? I am FULLY HOOKED❤
Richard Poschmann Quote: When asked to comment on the band's genre, vocalist Johan Hegg remarked: "We play death metal. We write about vikings so therefore some refer us to viking metal, but i have no idea what that is. I can't imagine the vikings were into metal at all except on the swords and stuff. And musically, I guess they only played these strange lip instruments and some bongos or whatever."
As the young teen sat down at his computer and loaded up You Tube, he began to wonder what music he'd find that day. After a few searches he found Amon Amarth's Twilight of the Thunder God. His body began to transform. He grew a long flowing bushy blonde beard and grew more muscular. His Clothing transformed into chainmail. His desk chair transformed into a horse and his city became a battlefield. Brandishing his blade he felt a powerful energy swarm over him, lightning began to emanate from his blade and Jormungandr awoke from under Yggdrasil (the Tree of Life) And the battle began. The old viking's war cry sounded throughout the heavens as he planted the blade into Jormungandr, saving all of humanity. Then once he returned home, his brothers cheered and raised their mead tankards in his name.

+DanOfTheWild modern mead is for women and children, mead fermented to 80 proof is cheap and now they call it 'krupnik' in poland, but it's just 80 proof fermented honey which fucking owns
+AMpufnstuf Krupnik is a honey-flavoured vodka, not a mead. Mead is a wine made of fermented honey. It's actually impossible to ferment something to 80 proof as beyond about 30-40 proof (15-20 a.b.v.), the alcohol content kills off the yeast. The only way to get it stronger is to distill it, like they do with vodka and other spirits. I believe there is a mead-like beverage called medovukha but it's nowhere near that strong.
AMpufnstuf It's a branding thing. There may actually be flavoured vodkas sold as "fermented honey", and there may be fermented honey beverages sold as "krupnik" - Here in the UK there are a bunch of perry drinks (fermented pears) sold as "pear cider", when in fact pear cider is fermented apples, flavoured with pears. Whatever. As long as it tastes nice and gets you smashed, that's all you need, right?
Pixels Mossman I originally intended to better understand the fuel of my forefathers but with the news that the modern world is a capitalist marketing lie then yes now I will drink to get dull and smashed
data spell if you study really well the world was hammered by vikings . The conquer all north and south Europe all the way half of Africa , let's go back to north America , in 1100 ad they reach shores of new foundland in CDN, if you see Spanish British French that took all over the world , they did it after they blend with vikings for 200 300 years.
They'd probably be scared shitless at the chaotic sounds eminating from seemingly thin air, their ears not accustomed to music the same way modern ears are.
Kneecap honestly that sounds more like what happens nowadays.. Most modern people run away screaming when i put this on, saying any form of metal is nothing but noise and chaos. In the meantime they claim that "artists" like Nicki Minaj and Kanye West are the pinnacle of musical talent...
Albundy christ Vikings really did not hammer the world. They where mostly traders and raiders. In alot of cases they where traveling to trade. I have no idea how you come up with that they conquered all of south europe or even half of Africa. They raided with little to no settlements in all of South Europe and North Africa. They had Sicily but thats not all of south europe. They had alot of impact and settlements in england but thats west europe. Spanish and french did not blend with vikings even if vikings had normandy and france islands its nothing compared to the rest of france. A ''Few'' vikings blended with a small part of french.
Singing this live with the band and all the other metalheads when they were on tour 3 months ago was one of the most baller fucking experiences of my life. My beard grew 3 inches in 4 minutes.
I want a Ragnarok movie not MCU but Norse where the Einherjar march from Asgard to war against the damned amd the giants and each of Amon Amarths songs about the individual characters plays during their BAD ASS fight scene, like Loki v Heimdall and Jormugundr v Thor.
insanic1 unfortunately you are 100% right, especially considering the Islamic invasion of Europe is going on and they want to portray anything pro European as anti everyone else.
SpectralKnight As Loke Falls. Good song. Also listen to Tattered Banners and Bloody Flags and Down the Slopes of Death, it’s about Odin riding to battle Fenrir
Thor! Odin's son Protector of mankind Ride to meet your fate Your destiny awaits Thor! Hlödyn's son Protector of mankind Ride to meet your fate Ragnarök awaits!
Nether do I, I know i jumped, but I just call it all metal. Like all I said is metal, from dark funeral skeleton witch, judas priest, deicide, dimmu borgir, black dahlia, it's all metal, sorry man
Hello, fellow metalheads! Today, I am going to show you all how to be civil about having your own opinions. I have listened to these people, three songs from each album to make sure it wasn't just one song or one album, and I have decided that I do not like this band. However, I will not dislike this video or post hateful comments, I will simply leave and not come back. Thank you, and have a nice day.
***** Nah, I forgot I made this comment. I was just fed up by all the Amon Amarth people hating on Children of Bodom videos so I showed them some etiquette.
***** I actually found it irritating that you should come to a video in order to address the vocal few of haters, assuming the rest of us people who like Amon Amarth are unable to be civil, aswell. Maybe think your smart ass comments through before typing them.
When I feel down I listen to this. Specially, when I'm tired and on my way to train jiu jitsu. This, along with Warrior from Disturbed, is what give me strength most of the days.
@@alanolex3962 Depends on which dragon it is. Could be an Ancient, could be a Legendary and his difficulty setting could be all the way up but I'd say one who makes the song worth listening to while fighting a dragon.
Heard this live and listened to it thousands of times and every. single. time. I. get. goosebumps. and want to charge into battle thirsty for Valhalla!!!!!
Why does the guitar solo at 3:14 and the transition at 3:36 always give me goosebumps and lets be honest this wasnt in our recommendation we all searched for this
The norse gods smile upon on me last saturday, watching these guys live. They killed it with this song. I wait for the valkryies to come take me to Valhalla.
Good point. You can be cool, but you can never be "God of thunder Thor fighing a serpent as big is the world in an apocalyptic thunderstorm while the Moon crashed into the Earth" cool.
DeJayHank He can, however, play the Thor pinball table for Pinball FX2 and get a score worthy of the gods. It's the neutered Marvel Thor but you take what you can get.
My knowledge of Metal is nearly zero. I typed "epic metal" in the search bar to begin to school myself, and this was the first song to pop up. I f***ing love it!
My style is primarily melodic stuff of the Iron Maiden/Avantasia school, but I'm absolutely obsessed with this song! Some years ago, I went thru a phase where I'd listen to it on repeat . . . sometimes for hours!
Being of Scandinavian descent is amazing. My great grandfather’s name was Thorton, and he just went by Thor. So I can name my son Thor and legit have it be a family name.
I’m not into death metal, but when the topic is about Vikings and shit, it becomes my cup of tea all of a sudden. I think because the topic is so fucking badass. Oh and it’s melodic as shit as well which helps
This was the first Amon Amarth song I listened to, probably about ten years ago now, and I instantly fell in love. Absolutely epic song, album and band. Saw them live several years ago on their Jomsvikings tour and they put on an incredible show, one of my favourite gigs. Skol 🍻

It feels like I'm standing among three Norns, and in the distance from the hammer, deadly lightnings fall, and the roar of the battle of the god of thunder and a chthonic monster splits the sky into pieces. Fucking brilliant,Amon Amarth.
I have a recommendation for everyone: try listening to this song outside during a thunderstorm, it's one of the most badass feelings in the world
Bonus points if you're at sea in a storm
We do that when we are in the woods and it starts to thunder. It's amazing
Bonus+ if its snowing as hell outside and u are exploring the mountain standing alone,snow everywhere,u cant see anything else than woods and snow. Thats a feeling running like a true viking in the snow to eliminate everyone.
Im gonna try. Thanks
Yeah, I just put it on while driving through Finland and Northern Norway mid winter, fit perfectly.

Mighty in his wrath
The eyes are full of primal hate
Thor Odin's son
Protector of mankind
Rise to meet your fate
Your destiny awaits
Thor Hlôdyn's son
Protector of mankind
Rise to meet your fate
Ragnarök awaits
Vingthor rides to face

At the edge of the world
Bolts of lightning fills the air
As Mjölner does its work
The dreadful serpent roars in pain
Thor Odin's son
Protector of mankind
Rise to meet your fate
Your destiny awaits
Thor Hlôdyn's son
Protector of mankind
Rise to meet your fate

Lifts his hammer high to strike

Bleeding to the depth

Ragnarök awaits
Twilight of the thunder god

It's actually impossible to ferment something to 80 proof as beyond about 30-40 proof (15-20 a.b.v.), the alcohol content kills off the yeast. The only way to get it stronger is to distill it, like they do with vodka and other spirits.
I believe there is a mead-like beverage called medovukha but it's nowhere near that strong.
AMpufnstuf It's a branding thing. There may actually be flavoured vodkas sold as "fermented honey", and there may be fermented honey beverages sold as "krupnik" - Here in the UK there are a bunch of perry drinks (fermented pears) sold as "pear cider", when in fact pear cider is fermented apples, flavoured with pears.
Whatever. As long as it tastes nice and gets you smashed, that's all you need, right?
Pixels Mossman I originally intended to better understand the fuel of my forefathers but with the news that the modern world is a capitalist marketing lie then yes now I will drink to get dull and smashed

Omg. This Paramore song is so good.
i love this kind of pop musics!
This is my favorite Michael Jackson song.
Dude, this is Green Day.
You all need to learn your shit, guys. This is clearly Linkin park, it says in the title! Imbecilic people.
What is the joke exactly? I don't get what you guys are talking about.
I can't begin to tell you how much of my multi year fitness journey I can personally credit to this incredible song.
FACTS. I love lifting heavy to this
If the vikings had been able to hear this, the entire planet would be owned and ruled by Scandinavia today :)
data spell if you study really well the world was hammered by vikings . The conquer all north and south Europe all the way half of Africa , let's go back to north America , in 1100 ad they reach shores of new foundland in CDN, if you see Spanish British French that took all over the world , they did it after they blend with vikings for 200 300 years.
They'd probably be scared shitless at the chaotic sounds eminating from seemingly thin air, their ears not accustomed to music the same way modern ears are.
Kneecap *implying Nordic people did not have musical instruments*
Kneecap honestly that sounds more like what happens nowadays.. Most modern people run away screaming when i put this on, saying any form of metal is nothing but noise and chaos. In the meantime they claim that "artists" like Nicki Minaj and Kanye West are the pinnacle of musical talent...
Albundy christ Vikings really did not hammer the world. They where mostly traders and raiders. In alot of cases they where traveling to trade. I have no idea how you come up with that they conquered all of south europe or even half of Africa. They raided with little to no settlements in all of South Europe and North Africa. They had Sicily but thats not all of south europe. They had alot of impact and settlements in england but thats west europe. Spanish and french did not blend with vikings even if vikings had normandy and france islands its nothing compared to the rest of france. A ''Few'' vikings blended with a small part of french.
Listening to this during a thunderstorm.
not only is this an awsome legend of god's and monsters it's also a badass song
Singing this live with the band and all the other metalheads when they were on tour 3 months ago was one of the most baller fucking experiences of my life. My beard grew 3 inches in 4 minutes.
I love all of their music but this song is one of my favorites by Amon Amarth. Feel unstoppable jamming this on guitar.
I have been a fan of this band from the very beginning of their existence & I have to say this album is my favorite....

I want a Ragnarok movie not MCU but Norse where the Einherjar march from Asgard to war against the damned amd the giants and each of Amon Amarths songs about the individual characters plays during their BAD ASS fight scene, like Loki v Heimdall and Jormugundr v Thor.
insanic1 unfortunately you are 100% right, especially considering the Islamic invasion of Europe is going on and they want to portray anything pro European as anti everyone else.
There is a Norwegian movie simply named Ragnarok, though I don't remember it being THAT epic
They should play this version for one fight scene and the Sabaton version for another fight scene.
What is the song that's Heimdall vs Loki? I'm relatively new to this band
SpectralKnight As Loke Falls. Good song. Also listen to Tattered Banners and Bloody Flags and Down the Slopes of Death, it’s about Odin riding to battle Fenrir
I LOVE how powerful this song is!
Thor! Odin's son
Protector of mankind
Ride to meet your fate
Your destiny awaits
Thor! Hlödyn's son
Protector of mankind
Ride to meet your fate
Ragnarök awaits!
It's ok but the style of the vocals is the only thing about "thrash" that I don't like. Maybe it's just me getting old!!!
^^^^ what??? You really need to know your genres, so tell me how it sounds like metallica megadeth, slayer, or iron maiden?
Schmityy722 I think he's probably too old to give a fuck about genres..as so should we all..its all metal.
Nether do I, I know i jumped, but I just call it all metal. Like all I said is metal, from dark funeral skeleton witch, judas priest, deicide, dimmu borgir, black dahlia, it's all metal, sorry man
woah you copied the song into the comments
Drinking game: Every time you hear the bass drum.

You mean suicide game?
+David “Metallkniv” Johansson Right? Drummers are so under-appreciated. That shit is fucking nuts.
Only a true viking would survive that one
Comentário clichê,mas :Que orgulho de ser metaleira!!!Banda maravilhosa.
I'm going to see them tonight! I can't wait!
Hello, fellow metalheads! Today, I am going to show you all how to be civil about having your own opinions. I have listened to these people, three songs from each album to make sure it wasn't just one song or one album, and I have decided that I do not like this band. However, I will not dislike this video or post hateful comments, I will simply leave and not come back. Thank you, and have a nice day.
***** Nah, I forgot I made this comment. I was just fed up by all the Amon Amarth people hating on Children of Bodom videos so I showed them some etiquette.
***** I actually found it irritating that you should come to a video in order to address the vocal few of haters, assuming the rest of us people who like Amon Amarth are unable to be civil, aswell. Maybe think your smart ass comments through before typing them.
***** I said he was addressing haters. I didn't call him one. Please read.
METAL AND FUCKIN' ROCK Just out of curiosity, what about the band do you dislike?
METAL AND FUCKIN' ROCK shutup
When I feel down I listen to this. Specially, when I'm tired and on my way to train jiu jitsu. This, along with Warrior from Disturbed, is what give me strength most of the days.
Amazing album.
I know you, you are that pretty girl I see everywhere especially on the channel jhofffilms
This makes me wanna run into battle with an axe and shield, so fricking epic \m/
You mean an axe and no shield.
heavymetal666 well I have a mace and shield, does that work too?
Of course, mate!
drop the shield and get a double-hand long axe to rip enemies at one hit.
I prefer my sword. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less.
This makes me feel so badass to conquer anything. Fear is gone. doubt non existence. Getting the shit done is totally worth it!
played this during a skyrim dragon fight. song ended on the last hit.
Who the fuck takes 4 minutes to kill a dragon
@@alanolex3962 Depends on which dragon it is. Could be an Ancient, could be a Legendary and his difficulty setting could be all the way up but I'd say one who makes the song worth listening to while fighting a dragon.
2:16 it fuckin begins
These guys kick ass, lots of energy
they finished their concert yesterday with this. love from Birmingham
Heard this live and listened to it thousands of times and every. single. time. I. get. goosebumps. and want to charge into battle thirsty for Valhalla!!!!!
Amon Amarth is my favorite metal band. They are unique for me 🤘🏻
fucking pure concentrated essence of eargasm
my dogs name is thor, this is now his theme song.
Nice
Twilight of the Thunder Dog it is then....
Lmao mine is Loki, when I played this to him he ran away
MIGHTY DOGGO GRIPS THE SNAKE FIRMLY BY HIS TONGUE
he has a toy goose he runs around with constantly, id say thats close enough. geese are worse then snakes imo, geese are assholes.
Why does the guitar solo at 3:14 and the transition at 3:36 always give me goosebumps and lets be honest this wasnt in our recommendation we all searched for this
The norse gods smile upon on me last saturday, watching these guys live. They killed it with this song. I wait for the valkryies to come take me to Valhalla.
Just heard my friend died yesterday. Playing this song in his name.🤘👿🤘
Such a calm and reasonable person
I've seen a couple of comments saying "Hail Mighty Thor" or similar. It's times like this i really love being Swedish and having my last name.
But have you ever fought a serpent as big as the world during an apocalytic thunderstorm while the moon crashed into the earth?
Good point. You can be cool, but you can never be "God of thunder Thor fighing a serpent as big is the world in an apocalyptic thunderstorm while the Moon crashed into the Earth" cool.
navets99 Well it's really fucking hard to find world sized serpents, so he can't really prove himself that way.
no it isn't. just lucid dream, and you'll make one yourself
but it's only in your head
DeJayHank
He can, however, play the Thor pinball table for Pinball FX2 and get a score worthy of the gods. It's the neutered Marvel Thor but you take what you can get.
I always listen to this song on Thor's Day.
And yet you have Loki as a profile pic
I just revere Loki more than the other Aesir. : )
Lopt the Treacherous Loki is a Jotun.
It's Thor's day, and I'm listening to this!
tomorrow is thor's day/thursday/torsdag, im preparing the music and alcohol already :D
My Rottie, Thor, passed a year ago. I sung this song to him all the time. I can't hear it without crying.
I'm ginger. I'm proud of my vikingness while I listen to this
Me too
The ghost of Sparta is sending his regards
My knowledge of Metal is nearly zero. I typed "epic metal" in the search bar to begin to school myself, and this was the first song to pop up. I f***ing love it!
best leap of faith you'll ever do, friend
"Tell me brother, what were you the god of again?"
3:03
I showed this song to my puppy
He's a wolf now
you mean Fenrir
@Paul Berg that a burn
My style is primarily melodic stuff of the Iron Maiden/Avantasia school, but I'm absolutely obsessed with this song! Some years ago, I went thru a phase where I'd listen to it on repeat . . . sometimes for hours!
Being of Scandinavian descent is amazing. My great grandfather’s name was Thorton, and he just went by Thor. So I can name my son Thor and legit have it be a family name.
When you realise the drummer plays double bass from 0:20 to 2:10 without breaking a sweat.
God bless him.
God doesn't exist.
Just gorgeous
Still hearing this album in 2019!
I’m not into death metal, but when the topic is about Vikings and shit, it becomes my cup of tea all of a sudden. I think because the topic is so fucking badass. Oh and it’s melodic as shit as well which helps
This was the first Amon Amarth song I listened to, probably about ten years ago now, and I instantly fell in love. Absolutely epic song, album and band. Saw them live several years ago on their Jomsvikings tour and they put on an incredible show, one of my favourite gigs. Skol 🍻
VIKING PRAYER:
Buliwyf: Lo, there do I see my father. 'Lo, there do I see...
Herger the Joyous: My mother, and my sisters, and my brothers.
Buliwyf: Lo, there do I see...
Herger the Joyous: The line of my people...
Edgtho the Silent: Back to the beginning.
Weath the Musician: Lo, they do call to me.
Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan: They bid me take my place among them.
Buliwyf: In the halls of Valhalla...
Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan: Where the brave...
Herger the Joyous: May live...
Ahmed Ibn Fahdlan: ...Forever.
Love this an the massive power it holds
This is a certified metal classic
Im not new to metal but i am new to Amon Amarth. Gotta say, these guys rock
Roope Latvala's guitar solo is pretty sweet in this song
Just saw Live in Vancouver! Epic!
It’s simple.
I see Amon Amarth,
I click!
Same! 🤘🏻
Same here we are extreme and prooooud
Hail to the mighty Thor! May you continue to protect Midgard!
UsernameUnidentifful he's trolling lol
jaysen MCLAREN Might want to substitute "ignorant fuck" with "uncultured swine" next time. I find that has more impact against trolls.
jaysen MCLAREN I do not condone lowering autistic people or gays to the level of trolls, because they aren't. Who knew the metal community could be so homophobic?
jaysen MCLAREN I am calm C;
Words can be hurtful, that's all.
ThisIsCertainlyNotMyNameSoDontEvenBotherReadingThisTextItsProbablyWorkingOnYourNervesRightNow I don't like Tumblr, I like it here so I think I'll stay.
There are so many riffs in this song that actually fire🔥
So.... this is my final chance at trying to grow beard after everything medicinal has failed me.... 24/7 banging this
SO good
There is no human word to describe how awesome Amon Amarth are!!
So i'll make up my own, Thortastic!
I remember when I sang this song in a karaoke! hahaha everybody got shocked!
It feels like I'm standing among three Norns, and in the distance from the hammer, deadly lightnings fall, and the roar of the battle of the god of thunder and a chthonic monster splits the sky into pieces. Fucking brilliant,Amon Amarth.
This is the real Death Metal. Not Quad pedal. Just talent.
When you're walking in the woods and get startled by a small snake
I hear this song nearly every day since it came out
