Amon Amarth are a Swedish melodic death metal band from Tumba, outside Stockholm, formed in 1992. Their lyrics draw on Viking mythology and Norse history, earning them a devoted global following across three decades and 12 studio albums on Metal Blade Records. The 2008 breakthrough album Twilight of the Thunder God charted in multiple countries and remains their most-streamed record, while later releases like Jomsviking (2016) and The Great Heathen Army (2022) confirmed their standing as one of heavy metal's most consistent live and studio acts.
Amon Amarth co-headlined the Amonklok Conquest North American spring tour alongside Dethklok.
The Allfather Awakens UK and European autumn 2026 tour was announced, featuring support from Orbit Culture and Soilwork and a new theatrical stage production.
