Oh my god. what's happening to this community. This is their best album to date. You just are obviously kidding with your ratings or you didn't even sit to listen the fucking album
You're probably kidding with your rating since there is absolutely nothing 10-worthy about this.
<sigh>
I really wish people would just stop rating everything they like with a fucking 10.

Pretty sure you care about petty stuff that do not have overall huge importance on your life.
Why do you care about those?

That's not my impression of this album. There are some really interesting and enjoyable songs here. I also think Hegg has some fine moments with the vocals. Drumming is on a par with previous releases. I think anyone trying to claim massive differences in quality between the past three albums are splitting hairs because they are quite similar.

I don't understand all the hate for this album... In my opinion its right up there with WOOOS and Twilight. Maybe not quite as good as WOOOS but definitely every bit as good as Twilight.
I agree with you 100%.

Another good album from the Swedish vikings. It is not a masterpiece, neither it is a pinnacle of their career but their trademark melodies, heavy sound and bestial roars and screams of Johan Hegg all are present so there is not much to complain. Maybe some variation to the band's sound would be welcome? Possibly. But, then again, they seem to play it safe and stick to the kind of music they are good at writing and performing.

One of my issues about this album is Johan's vocals are not as clear on this album or the last album as they were on WOOOS

I have noticed that as well but I still think Hegg's vocal performance on this album is outstanding. There is much subtlety and nuance to his growling and roaring.

Its good not great.
The problem is it is just a little too similar to what theyve done in the past, though all the songs are just different enough and it has some highlights that make it worthwhile for the dedicated fans. I will agree about no songs really sticking out, the only song that really stood out at first listen was the outro, Doom over Dead Man because of that unique intertwining of synth and guitar.
Really I only got into this album after I burned out on all their previous melodeath releases. So for the dedicated fan its good enough, for the casual listener there really isn't much here besides the outro and maybe covers if your into that.
Although i got too say.. Surter Rising has one of the best album covers out there-had to get the banner poster for my wall

Never listened to Amon Amarth until now. I went to a nearby store and saw an amon amarth album. I knew that amon amarth is famous and often labeled as one of the best metal bands. Therefore I bought this album today and was just blown away! Damn I didn't pay too much attention to swedish death metal, which was a huge mistake. This album is just amazing, brutal and emotional. Lol and this isn't even labeled as their best!

Try the album before this one, Twilight of the Thunder God. Your mind will be blown.

Probably my favorite album from them. I didn't get into them until With Oden On Our Side, and that album wasn't bad. I do enjoy many of the albums before it over that one, but then they did Twilight of the Thunder God and my mind was blown. Then the couple they've done since have been rather boorish. Lol

Another very solid effort, it's like a continuation of Twilight Of The Thunder God, with some great tracks on here like "War Of The Gods", which reminds me a lot of the title track from the previous album, "Slaves Of Fear", "Live Without Regrets" "Doom Over Dead Man", and "The Last Stand Of Frej" are also solid tracks too.
But it's not quite as consistent as the previous album for me, "Destroyer Of The Universe", "Wrath Of The Norsemen", and "A Beast Am I" are the slightly weaker tracks on here imo. And another great album cover too

A solid album but it peaks at "For Victory or Death". The last 3 songs are good, but aren't on the same level than those before. Nonetheless, still very good.

I know Im in the minority here, but this is one of my favorite Amon Amarth albums, with Versus the World in first place. It's a 9.5/10 for me all day
