Amon Amarth - The Pursuit Of Vikings

Sunday, time for a classic.

After a pretty busy week with a tribute show to Avicii at Friends Arena and firing off some Vikings at Annexet the week is finally to an end. The first show was pretty cool, the electronic tunes got some life with a real orchestra and it's really sad that it has to go this far to be true for Tim Bergling. Well, I hope he enjoyed the show from heaven at least.

The weekend ended at Annexet here in Stockholm and once again I meet up with the lads from the Swedish death metal band AMON AMARTH. They traveled with ARCH ENEMY and HYPOCRISY.

During the years, have AMON AMARTH grown to a big arena band with their Viking influenced death metal. The show was sold out and they really offered a hell of an evening to their fans, props of Vikings, Vikings fighting in a few numbers, raised drum raiser covered with a mask and gold chains, red flames, normal flames, flame balls, I mean a lot of flames along with lots of pyro effects to create a superb visual effect and a night to remember.

So after a hot night at Annexet with FFP, the german pyro dudes it's pretty easy to choose this evening classic.

Well, 2004 is not so far away, but on September 6, 2004 did AMON AMARTH released their fifth full-length studio "Fate Of Norns" where we find today's tune "The Pursuit of Vikings" that also was played during the evening at Annexet, here in Stockholm.

Enjoy!



Here is a clip with the full show.

SOEN - Lucidity

"Lucidity", the new video from SOEN, the Swedish progressive heavy rock group featuring world-renowned drummer Martin Lopez (formerly of AMON AMARTH and OPETH) and the dynamic voice of Joel Ekelöf (WILLOWTREE). The tune is taken from SOENs new and upcoming full-length album "Lykaia", which will be released on February 3.

Lopez tells Billboard: "This song represents a time in my life when I unconsciously walked towards self-destruction and celebrates, to an extent, the death of that lifestyle and the birth of a new era. It's dark but comforting. The music is soft and dreamy but carries the tension of a past-life full of mistakes."

"Lykaia" is a journey into earthier places — SOEN's most cohesive, powerful and congruent creative quest yet. For those who have followed SOEN's career thus far, the new album's concepts of journey and exploration are not new. 2012's "Cognitive" beat a firmly heavy, progressive metal path. 2014's "Tellurian" — with its PINK FLOYD explorative spirit and OPETH-like forceful power — saw SOEN start to stride freely into their own control and unique visions.

The album was recorded at Ghost Ward, Studio Gröndal and Deep Well in Stockholm, Sweden.

SOEN is:

Stefan Stenberg – Bass
Marcus Jidell – Guitar
Lars Åhlund – Keys, guitar
Joel Ekelöf – Vocals
Martin Lopez – Drums, percussion

Today's tune is the official video for the new track "Lucidity" taken from the new album "Lykaia" available 3rd February 2017.

We continue with the Greek theme and today we play some Swamp rock.

From Athens, Greece we find a band called POTERGEIST. The band was founded in 2004, started out as a southern metal band.

They recorded their début "Southwards" album back in 2006 and it got released 2007, the album had a crossover of dark and groovy southern blues metal is regarded as a novelty by many.

In 2008 they released their self titled EP. Where they showing a more heavy and dark side of the band.

In December 2010 the band entered the studio recording their 2nd full length album "Muddy Mermaids". The same year director Costas Zapas inspired by the music of POTERGEIST works with Alex S. and Asimakis Repas on his new movie "The rebellion of red maria" creating a brutal metal soundrack twisted enough to mach the hardcore and often twisted world of Zapa.

In 2012 "Muddy Mermaids" is released through Distroball productions and through Warner Music in digital form. With "Muddy Mermaids" the band goes even more dark and bluesy. Not being able to label their own music any more the term Swamp Metal is used to describe POTERGEISTs dark southern bluesy sound. In June 2012 POTERGEIST were chosen to open for LYNYRD SKYNYRD showing that hard work does pay.

In 2013 started the band recording their 3rd album, working with David Castillo (KATATONIA, OPETH, AMON AMARTH, DRACONIAN, NASUM among others) on the mix, re-amp and production. Angry Blue (GUNS AND ROSES, DANZIG, FAITH NO MORE, SLAYER, MELVINS) designs the cover this time and "Swampires" comes to life on 2014 via Distroball productions and B-otherside records.On December 2014 and after performing at the Red Bull unplugged sessions POTERGEIST strikes an endorsement deal with Red Bull.

Through the years POTERGEIST have shared the stage with the likes of LYNYRD SKYNYRD, MONSTER MAGNET, PRO PAIN, THE HAUNTED, THE SHRINE, KYLESA, PARADISE LOST to mention a few and have become known for the energy they deliver when on stage.

Sonic Syndicate - Before You Finally Break

Sonic Syndicate have finally waken up from a 2 years break, with their new "self titled" album recorded at Bohus Recordings (Kungälv, Sweden) and produced by Roberto Lahgi (In Flames, Deathstars), release 4 July. Sonic Syndicate hits the road again playing exclusive shows in Sweden and Germany this summer, and a headlining tour starts in fall.

After the release of their first album, »Eden Fire« (2005), Sonic Syndicate arose from the pulsating underground in 2007 when Nuclear Blast put out their stunningly intense second album »Only Inhuman«. The band went up to the game's top players in no time and were even able to set the bar higher with their next effort, »Love And Other Disasters« (2008). Touring with bands like Amon Amarth, In Flames or Nightwish eventually cemented their status as the hottest new band around (Best Newcomer 2008 twice at Swedish Metal Awards and at Bandit Rock Awards, Best Music Video 2010 and Best Swedish Group 2010).

When Nathan Biggs joined the band, Sonic Syndicate came up with a diverse and unique work of art - »We Rule The Night«. The album was not only accompanied by selling a Gold Record in Sweden and a huge marketing campaign over the world, but it also led the band to their most extensive tour to date, travelling and destroying stages for about 2 years and finished at an unbelievably successful gig at 2011s edition of renowned Summer Breeze Open Air in front of over 33.000 people.

After almost 28million youtube views of their official music videos and constantly being on the road or in the studio, the band decided to take a break for the first time since 2005. Being on a hiatus gave the band the opportunity to work just as easy and song orientated as it was never given before.

2 years later, Sonic Syndicate is back!

Sonic Syndicate consicts of:

Nathan Biggs - Vocals
Robin Sjunnesson - Guitar
Karin Axelsson - Bass
John Bengtsson - Drums

Todays tune is the brand new single "Before You Finally Break". The tune is featuring Björn "Speed" Strid (Soilwork, The Night Flight Orchestra).

Soilwork - Rise Above The Sentiment

Swedish metallers Soilwork have released a new video "Rise Above The Sentiment" of the upcoming album "The Living Infinite".

Soilwork is a Swedish melodic death metal band from Helsingborg. They are currently signed to Nuclear Blast. Formed in late 1995 by Björn Strid and Peter Wichers, originally under the name Inferior Breed, the band changed their name in late 1996 to Soilwork (meaning "working from the ground up").

Their sound is a fusion of the classic Gothenburg metal sound with power-groove riffs of late 1970s, early 1980s British, and European metal. However, in their most recent albums, Soilwork has also introduced elements from other genres such as blues rock and alternative metal, and adopted a more melodic sound. Their most recent work has more singing and lighter melodies than their earlier work, as well as a more polished production.

Todays tune "Rise Above The Sentiment", The song comes off the band's ninth studio album and first dual-disc release, "The Living Infinite" the first double album in the history of melodic death metal!! Music video by Sune Eskelinen & Niclas Lindahl, is set to be released in February 27th (Asia), March 1st (EU), 4th (UK) and 5th, 2013. Produced by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Amon Amarth, Bloodbath), the CD features artwork by MNEMIC's Mircea Eftemie Gabrie. "The Living Infinite" features Justin Sullivan lead singer of the English band New Model Army as a guest vocalist on the track "The Windswept Mercy" and also marks the recording debut of longtime Soilwork touring guitarist David Andersson (also of The Night Flight Orchestra).

Soilwork's world tour launches with a 55-show headlining trek through the U.S. and Canada this March. Support will come from Jeff Loomis, Blackguard, The Browning and Wretched.
