Swedish Viking death metallers AMON AMARTH are streaming the song “Father of the Wolf” from their forthcoming Deceiver of the Gods album via the Soundcloud player below.
Recorded at Backstage Studios in Derbyshire, United Kingdom, and produced, mixed and mastered by Andy Sneap (OPETH, MEGADETH), the follow-up to the band’s critically acclaimed 2011 Surtur Rising full-length delivers ten fiery battle hymns made of buzzsaw riffs and epic harmonies all driven by vocalist Johan Hegg’s commanding Viking roar and absorbing accounts of Norse crusades and treachery.
Deceiver Of The Gods comes adorned with another outstanding Tom Thiel-created cover portraying a mythical battle between the Norse GodsLoki and Thor. As an added bonus, Messiah Marcolin (CANDLEMASS) makes an appearance as guest vocalist on eighth track, “Hel.”
Deceiver Of The Gods will be released in North America via Metal Blade Records on June 25, in Europe June 24 and Japan on June 26.
