Amon Amarth Are Recording…Hot Fucking Damn!

Amon AmarthRichard Christy’s psyched, I’m sure. That’s because one of his favorite bands — of which he has several — is in the studio, tracking new gloriousness.

In an update from the Swedish viking metal outfit, the band reveals they’ve been working the last several months on the follow-up to Twilight of the Thunder God.

“Ten songs were written and on October 1, we started tracking drums for the album in Park Studios,” the band says. “After a short trip to Tokyo, which included our first-ever show in Japan at the renowned Loud Park festival, we continued tracking bass and guitars at Fascination Street studios. Recordings have been going well and we are now more than half way through and the album starts to take shape. We’ll keep you updated with more info soon!”

Holy thunder fuck! I happen to think Amon Amarth are the tits, and so this is fucking insanely awesome news, coming on a day that was kind of meh for me. Glad to hear it won’t be long before we have more Amon fucking Amarth. So real!

    That.

    Is.

    AWESOME.

    Can’t wait to hear their new album. I’m so excited after their most recent album Twilight Of The Thundergod.

    Haven’t come across many bands so original. You guys writing about Nordic Mythology and heritage with the revelations & prophecies of the legends is amazing. I love each and every song from all the albums (minus the early ones where you guys did garage recordings. Can’t hear much with those songs)

    All in all. You guys are one of my favourite bands; and a lot of Gold Coasters (Queensland, Australia) would have to agree. If you ever decide to tour Australia. I’m sure Brisbane River Stage will be your biggest and best show.

    Everyone down here loves you guys!
