Amon Amarth - Hymns of the rising sun

Review by Jennifer

The album "Hymns of the Rising Sun" by Amon Amarth is a powerful and epic collection of songs that showcase the band's signature style of Viking-inspired melodic death metal. From the thundering drums and chugging riffs of "Father of the Wolf" to the soaring melodies and anthemic choruses of "Deceiver of the Gods," the album is a masterclass in heavy metal songwriting.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "We Shall Destroy," which features a driving rhythm and a memorable chorus that will have fans singing along. Another highlight is "Blood Eagle," which tells the gruesome tale of a Viking ritual in vivid detail, with Johan Hegg's guttural vocals adding to the intensity of the song.

Summary by Jennifer

"Hymns of the Rising Sun" is a must-have album for fans of Amon Amarth, as well as anyone who enjoys epic and powerful heavy metal music. With its memorable hooks, blistering riffs, and epic themes, this album is sure to become a classic in the genre.
