Former CANDLEMASS Frontman MESSIAH MARCOLIN Performs With AMON AMARTH At Gefle Metal Festival 2017 (Video)

On July 14th, Amon Amarth played at the Gefle Metal Festival in Gävle, Sweden. During the song "Hel" they were joined by former Candlemass frontman Messiah Marcolin, who guested on the song for the Deceiver Of The Gods album, released in 2008. Check out video from the festival performance below.

After releasing the visually stunning videos for "First Kill" and "At Dawn's First Light"  last year in support of their latest album, Jomsviking, Amon Amarth are now ready to debut a new video from the record, "The Way Of Vikings”, which was once again directed by Grupa 13.

The new clip features the full band as Peaky Blinders inspired characters at a brutal underground gambling hall and boxing match. Watch below:

As the band's first concept record in their storied career, Jomsviking tells a tragic, original tale of conflict and revenge, backed by the Swedes' trademark melodic, anthemic metal - which was produced and mixed once again by Andy Sneap (Megadeth, Testament, Accept). For their efforts, Amon Amarth crashed into the global charts, picking up some of their highest chart positions to date around the world (including two #1s).

Amon Amarth lineup:

Johan Hegg - Vocals
Ted Lundstrom - Bass
Johan Soderberg - Guitar
Olavi Mikkonen - Guitar
Jocke Wallgren - Drums
