2017 edition on black vinyl with insert and poster.
Amon Amarth´s fifth full-length isn´t so different than its 2002predecessor, The Crusher. Musically, Fate of Norns is Spartan deathmetal built on epic, anthemic melodies, a perfect example of theIron Maiden/death metal fusion tagged the "New Wave of SwedishHeavy Metal." And lyrically it´s still full of Viking imagery, assongs like "Valkyries Ride" and "The Pursuit of Vikings" attest.It´s the same theme that these guys have been hammering at sincetheir 1996 debut mini-album, Sorrow Throughout the Nine Worlds.It´s also a theme that literally hundreds of other Scandinavianbands have hammered at too, most of them leaving it a hackneyedcorpse ready for the pyre. Which is where Amon Amarth have setthemselves apart. These aren´t just songs written about Vikings,they are written by Vikings. They´re ready for death in "Arson"where one of five left to burn survives and comes back for revengein that tracks´ sequel, "Once Sealed in Blood." Blood lust themesaren´t unusual, but Amon Amarth tackle them with a depth oftenlacking from their contemporaries. Which brings up the mostintriguing track, "Fate of Norns": "No man should have to bury hischild/Yet this has been my share/The tears I shed run bitter andwild/It´s a heavy burden to bear." A knotty subject for a band anda style more given to crushing skulls than tears, but that kind ofdepth is what Amon Amarth have brought to Fate of Norns and whatmakes it stand out in a sea of barbarian pretenders.
