Amon Amarth - Surtur Rising flac album

Album · 2011 · 11 Songs. A cohesive concept album about the struggle to conquer Valhalla with swords and honor, Surtur Rising is also a take-no-prisoners sonic explosion. The mighty guitars of "War of the Gods," punishing death-march "Destroyers of the Universe," emotional wreckage of "The Last Stand of Frej," and doomsaying chant of "Wrath of the Norseman" are Amon Amarth in their purest form. From start to finish, some of their most memorable riffs and tunes shore up these mythological images of wartime valor. Surtur Rising Amon Amarth.

This album really shows Amon Amarth's ability to create atmospheric tracks as well. While album opener "War of the Gods" is first and foremost a thrashingly heavy track, showing that Amon is still the piece of work they were in past releases, "Tocke's Taunt" is a much more emphatic release, with a very carefully-crafted atmospheric presence to it. Speaking of the second track, "Tocke's Taunt" is also a very good track. In this respect Surtur Rising does not disappoint. The ineffectual production of the last album is gone, in its place an updated version of the patented Viking Juggernaut sound found on the first four albums. The sound is a tad too clean for my tastes, but the propulsive drumming and crunchy riffing packs quite a punch. It would be easy enough to simply say yep, it’s an Amon Amarth album, and then you could decide what to do based on your past experience with the band.
