Amon Amarth - Working On New Album


Amon Amarth have released the following update:

"The last couple of months we have been busy working on our follow up to Twilight of the Thunder God. Ten songs were written and on October 1st we started tracking drums for the album in Park Studios.

After a short trip to Tokyo, which included our first ever show in Japan at the renowned Loupark 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!"

For now the band can confirm some shows in the UK as part as the "Defenders Of The Faith 2011" tour with Children Of Bodom. Those dates were posted yesterday at this location.

Actually, unlike some people, I don't think it'll take that much to beat Twilight, the ones at the altar for me are still the old albums and With Odin.

So, I think they can top Twilight. But can they top With Odin? Let's hope so.

Hopefully their new album will kick ass!!

That is what I exactly feel, Twilight was not better than With Odin
hope they can do something amazing and not stick to the old formula

Yep, I agree. Twilight was probably my least favorite album, I felt it was too uninspired (and even a "plastic feel" in the production), specially compared to the perfection that was With Oden On Our Side.

I still think this one is totally gonna be , Amon Amarth never did anything wrong.

Twilight was relatively weak compared to their last few. Butt Odin is one of my all time fav albums, and it is going to be very difficult to top that.

I loved Twilight and can't wait for new stuff. AA is the rare band that gets better with time.

Sweet news about an upcoming album by this band. I own three of their albums, including the last one. I'm looking forward to this one.

Twilight of the Thunder God was certainly their most accessible album, being instantly catchy and everything, but basically I just think it's a damn fine album with a few really strong anthemic Metal songs.

It'll be interesting to see where they go with this next album, whether they stick with the Twilight sound, or become even more accessible, or 'rough it up' a bit.

I agree with you. Twilight was a good and very solid album, but Odin... that was their best in my opinion as well. Also love Fate of Norns.

Let's see how this one comes out. I doubt it can top Odin, but you never know. I hope so.

I also love Fate of Norns, I think it's a very good album. I think Fate of Norns was superior to Twilight for instance.

Yea Fate of Norns has always been my favorite. Pursuit of Vikings is the ultimate Amon Amarth song, and the rest of the album amazing as well.

Fantastic news. While "Twilight . . ." was musically their simplest to date, those songs are amazing when performed live. Whether they stick with their new trajectory or go back to the older sound, I'm happy.
