To celebrate the release of ‘The Great Heathen Army,’ Amon Amarth treated fans to a surprise performance at Wacken Open Air, Europe’s biggest metal festival. Under the pseudonym, Guardians of Asgaard, the band treated 10s of thousands of festival goers to an all-killer set of fan favorites in celebration of todays’ album release, which was also available as a livestream, as well as partaking in signings and a listening party.

Armed with their 12th and arguably finest album to date, Amon Amarth are poised to return to full action with a bloody, broadsword-wielding vengeance. The release of the new album ‘The Great Heathen Army ‘ will kick-start another relentless global campaign, commencing with a co-headlining tour of Europe alongside Machine Head and fellow countrymen The Halo Effect before they set sail across the Atlantic with their sights firmly set on North American shores. Still ruthlessly devoted to the ways of the warrior, Amon Amarth have Odin’s wind in their sails like never before.

Set for release today via Metal Blade Records, the 9-track aural assault that is “The Great Heathen Army” is available now HERE. The band have released two singles thus far – “Get In The Ring”, which is is the official entrance music for AEW pro-wrestling star Erick Redbeard who also stars in the music video and “The Great Heathen Army” which came accompanied by an incredible Stranger Things inspired music video shot in Latvia by Pavel Trebukhin.
