AMON AMARTH TO RELEASE DOCUMENTARY

Amon Amarth are to put out a career-spanning documentary through Music For Nations on November 16.

This is titled ‘The Pursuit Of Vikings: 25 Years In The Eye Of The Storm’. It’s been produced by Alexander Milas and directed by Phil Wallis. There will also be an accompanying live album.

The release will be available in various formats  CD/two DVD eight-Panel Digipak, Blu-ray (which includes audio digital download of Main Stage Show), and a double LP on black vinyl.

Says Milas: “I think I first became conscious of Amon Amarth around the release of 2002’s ‘Versus The World’. It was a really transitional time for metal, and it seemed there wasn’t a credible band on the heavier end of the scale that hadn’t in some way responded to or been influenced by the pioneering sounds of the Swedish death metal scene, but I distinctly remember thinking that there was something unique about these guys: the artwork, the thematic underpinnings, even that curiously timeless logo.”
