Amon Amarth recently released their new music video for the track 'Destroyer Of The Universe', taken from the band’s latest release, Surtur Rising. The live video was shot on the band’s May 6th stop in Philadelphia, PA at the Theatre Of Living Arts, by director David Brodsky of MyGoodEye.

“This time around we wanted to catch the energy and atmosphere of a live show, so we simply went for a live video. We look forward to get back to North America in August to continue and fulfill the ‘Evening’ tour, meanwhile enjoy the video”, comments guitarist Olavi Mikkonen.
