From Finland, recorded at Tico-Tico, and released on Spikefarm/Spinefarm. Top-notch musicianship, but they might as well be a Children of Bodom tribute band.
The Viking mythology-obsessed Amon Amarth is back. Full of At The Gates guitar sounds, Carcass melodic riffs, and rusty gears-sounding metal at Abyss Studios.
More handclaps like the Bay City Rollers, ‘cept no spelling, cuz Tyler doesn’t wanna teach ya to spell. Tyler’s here to rock ya. He’s still pissed off tho’…
