Swedish Viking death metallers AMON AMARTH have posted a trailer of the video for “Father of the Wolf” from their Deceiver of the Gods album, which is available for viewing 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 was released in North America via Metal Blade Records yesterday (June 25).
