AMON AMARTH (Sweden) - The Great Heathen Army (sealed LP copy) (2022) Released by Metal Blade Records on Blue Smoke triple-gatefold sleeve including a double-sided insert & digital download card.
One of the best-loved metal bands in the world, AMON AMARTH are firmly dedicated to aiming high when they hit the studio. Recorded with esteemed studio guru Andy Sneap at the controls, 12th full-length studio album 'The Great Heathen Army' represents another bold leap forward for the band, as their trademark sound undergoes yet another skillful, evolutionary overhaul, both lyrically and musically. 
From the noisily rabble-rousing "Find A Way Or Make One" and the pummeling, pugilistic "Get In The Ring", to the evocative fury of "Saxons and Vikings" and the cinematic squall of the title track, 'The Great Heathen Army' encapsulates the essence of this legendary band, while still allowing acres of space for new ideas.  --  Metal Blade Records – 3984-25205-6, Metal Blade Records – 039842520568
