About

As a Swedish death metal band that mainly pens and performs songs about Viking history and lore, it makes absolute sense that their name is in the fictional language of Sindarin (created by J. R. R. Tolkien) and translates into “Mount Doom”—the volcano in Tolkien’s fantasy world of Middle Earth. It’s also fitting that Johan Hegg (vocals), Olavi Mikkonen (guitar), Johan Söderberg (guitar), Ted Lundström (bass) and Fredrik Andersson play über-loud hit songs like “Death In Fire,” “Thousand Years of Oppression,” “Without Fear,” “A Fury Divine” and “Risen From the Sea” with as much speed and vigor as wielded by the almighty hammer of Thor. Legions of death metal fans have been grabbing concert tickets since the early ‘90s to witness the fire and fury of Amon Amarth LIVE on stage, performing music that the band’s website describes as “a compelling fusion of buzzsaw riff work, melodic harmonies and soul-crushing rhythms.” Amon Amarth frequently play at metal festivals around the globe and tour with other top-notch death metal acts like Goatwhore, Enslaved and Skeletonwitch.

Over the course of their career, Amon Amarth have played at venues like Arizona Federal Theatre, and have brought The Fillmore (Philadelphia), The Fillmore (Detroit), The Fillmore (Minneapolis) to capacity.

    Amazing Consistancy

    by SOkiie on 4/30/11The Regency Ballroom - San Francisco

    This was my first Amon Amarth concert and they—definitely—did not disappoint! Lots of energy feeding from the band. Great crowd appeal. Your heart will beat with the music. Your ears will hum well into the night. You'll scream and head bang until you lose all sense of it. Flashing lights—engulfing smoke—the heat of the crowd—all of it will rush through you like a current. And by the end of the night, whatever you've been smoking or drinking before hand, will be incomparable to the natural euphoric high you'll feel in the pit. Best night of my life. . .

    TWO SETS!?!?

    by JosepherMorningstar on 4/26/11Wonder Ballroom - Portland

    Seriously great show for the band. The sound was a little muffled but didn't need earplugs and could still hear the next day. Also there wasn't any ads stating that they were gonna play two sets. That would've been nice to know before I showed up a little late!

    I can finally use 'epic' in place of 'good'

    by Akene on 4/25/11The Regency Ballroom - San Francisco

    This was EASILY the best concert I have ever gone to in my entire life. Every song was performed with relentless energy, and the musical attention to detail was also astounding. The instrumentalists fine tuned during the seconds between songs, when Johan Hegg introduced each one. The Sacramento show was just as energetic and crazy; it was as if they hadn't spent all day partying. (I have to rub this in: front row Amon Amarth two nights in a row. Can't move my neck, but my standards for metal are forever changed.) l..l, Highly recommended, even if you don't like them [yet]. At the very least, you have to appreciate the endless stream of metal energy they put forth every night (not counting road time) for months on end during tour. My only regret is that they will never see their own shows. I bet those guys are crazy to rock with...

    Absolutely epic!

    by HopeHelvete on 4/24/11The Regency Ballroom - San Francisco

    Before the show I was a huge fan of Amon Amarth. Now I'm obsessed! Wow! Strong from the first minute to the last song. They kept the crowd strong and the show was a blast. 1500 people walked away from that concert as honorary Vikings! Hail Amon Amarth!!

    Amon Amarth at the Showbox

    by usagi23 on 4/23/11Showbox at the Market - Seattle

    Amon Amarth were astounding. They put on a fantastic show. The first set of Surtur Rising was smoking. I didnt think it would get better but when they played the second set they were on fire and the crowd was going nuts. I would definitely see them again.

    Best live show in a decade

    by lameusername on 4/22/11Showbox at the Market - Seattle

    Being rather long in the tooth I have seen my share of metal shows over the years and this one was among the best. Amon Amarth really shines live, that combined with the Showbox being a great “intimate” venue pushed this event over the top. Great band, great music, great crowd, good sound and polite/professional staff made this one of the best nights out in a long time. You will not forgive yourself if you miss these guys next time they come to town, in addition to being talented musicians they are great showmen to boot.

    Amon Amarth brings Viking Metal to Seattle!

    by rattlhed on 4/22/11Showbox at the Market - Seattle

    This was an incredible show! When I first purchased my ticket, there were 3 opening bands scheduled, but at some point along the way the tour became "an evening with Amon Amarth" and the show became just Amon Amarth, no opening act. Fine by me! They started the show playing "Surtur Rising" from front to end. I really wish more bands would do this. I saw Megadeth play Rust in Peace in its entirety last fall and that was amazing as well. Bands should be willing to play all the songs on their latest release!! After Surtur Rising, the band took a 30 minute break then came back out to play for another hour, classic songs off thier older CD's. Such a powerful band with an incredible sound. This is the first time I've seen them live and it was worth the wait. The Showbox was near capacity and I think Seattle gave these guys a good solid turnout. Hopefully they will make the journey over the pond again good and keep Seattle in mind!

    Awesome!!!!

    by tattoodevilgod on 4/22/11Showbox at the Market - Seattle

    My first Amon Amarth show, and it won't be my last. Singer was very entertaining, singing and between songs. They played a double set and never showed any signs of letting up. I was truly impressed by their stage presence, and the control they had over the crowd was amazing. They enjoy what they are doing and it shows.

    Amon Amarth

    by akkufomk on 4/22/11Showbox at the Market - Seattle

    Show was awesome. They played 2 sets, no opening bands. Normally I go to concerts casually late. Good thing I didn't this time.

    This show was fricken awesome. They played all the songs I was wondering/hoping they'd play, and played them very well, as usual. The crowd was great. Venue was very nice. Definitely one to be remembered.

    Bow down to your Viking Warlords!

    by thenorsehammer on 4/21/11Wonder Ballroom - Portland

    Those crazy swedes did it again. The roaring giant Johan Hegg crushed the crowd with his hammer-like vocal and the chunky riffs and terrific blast beats melted our faces off and smashed our ear drums to dust. They played a double set, which is always a treat, and kept the crowd engaged from start to finish. For someone who sounds like they're about to chop off your head, Johan Hegg sure is a nice guy, getting everyone to clap their hands and sing along. To all those metal heads out there, if you ever, EVER have the slightest chance to make to an Amon Amarth concert, DO IT! They are always fantastic!
