Well hello fellow metalheads :3 !!

today i'm gonna be delivering you am on amar


th's new album "Jomsviking" Review :D !so put on your seat belts cuz this is gon
na be a rough ride 3:)
So let's start track by track:
1)First Kill/rating:9/10
Pretty cool song,and pretty amon amarthish is you ask me,although it sounds like
valhalla awaits me(check with oden on our side album) and for victory or death
(check surtur's rising album) it's really good and gives you that battlefield a
ggression and tension feeling,just epic,melodic and awesome,and the lyrical cont
ent is about a man that killed the earl's right hand which turns out to be a bar
d(a bard is a wandering poet that recites epic poetry )obviously he was trying t
o take his woman or something like that so he ended up taking his life,but in ex
change he was dishonored and disowned,so he lost his first name that his father
gave him and became a mere nobody"i'm an outcast" as he says in the song.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------2)Wanderer/rating:8/10
decent song,intro main riff sounds like siegreicher marsh( it's the same as"vict
orious march from their debut album") from "versus the world album",good drum wo
rk and nice heavy riffs,good solo with a good tapping section,the lyrical theme
is about a wanderer on an unknown quest through the blizzard and the snow
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------3)On A Sea Of Blood:rating:10/10
Just excellent!awesome riffs,aggressive,fast,melodic,it has everything,the solo
is harmonized,although the riff is kinda inspired from one of their songs"deceiv
er of the gods"and "live for the kill" from "twilight of thunder god",and has a
section that sounds a bit like "destroyer of the universe"from"surtur's rising",
vocals are always top tier,lyrical theme is about a viking journeying through th
e sea to fight a sky dragon,inspired from vikings folk legends,since vikings sin
ce the beginning of time were arch enemies with dragons
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------4)One Against All:rating:9/10
One of the best tracks on this album,great rhythm,epic harmonies and lyrics,awes
ome drum work,sounds a bit like "once sealed in blood" from their album "fate of
norns",the lyrical content is good and talks about a viking who's army is losin
g and finds himself all alone,all he has is two swords in each hand,it's do or d
ie ;)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------5)Raise Your Horns:Rating:8/10
Average song with a clich riff,still awesome tho,average guitar work and drumming
,the vocals makes up for that :3 ,and it's really a good "sing along" song,the l
yrical theme to um it up is about viking getting drunk in the middle of the sea
:3 !seriously johan :3 ?????jk xD !
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------6)The Way Of Vikings:Rating:9.5/10
EPIC!!hands down that's all i can say,awesome vocals,awesome rhythm,good drums,s
pectacular solo and most of all it's unique :D
the lyrical theme is simply about how vikings are brutal,powerful,and how even
if they're best friends they fight ferocity each other without holding back,cuz
it's the way of vikings bastards ;)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------7)At Dawn's First Light:Rating:666/10 \m/
My Favorite from the album,what makes this song good is the way how the guitar i
s harmonized with the vocals,just fucking awesome,brutal+melodic blend :D ,the s
olo is just awesome with some folklorish celtic,nordic feel,the song's lyrical t

heme is about a night attack or more like an ambush on a viking castle and how t
hey should seek shelter,while warriors fight til death
