AMON AMARTH – VERSUS THE WORLD

Description

Versus the World is the fourth studio album by Swedish melodic death metal band Amon Amarth, released on 18 November 2002 by Metal Blade Records and Sony Music. It was also released with a bonus disc featuring the Sorrow Throughout the Nine Worlds EP as well as their two demos; Thor Arise, The Arrival of the Fimbul Winter (the first being unreleased before) and a German version of “Victorious March” entitled “Siegreicher Marsch” which was on Once Sent from the Golden Hall. The song “Death in Fire” was made into a music video. Versus the World was the first Amon Amarth album to showcase a more midpaced and heavy sound, unlike their earlier faster works.

Amon Amarth returns with their 4th album, Versus the World. Much in the same way Pantera set the Metal world on fire with “Vulgar Display of Power”, Amon Amarth have crafted not only a brutal, heavy record, but one that grooves without sacrificing intensity.
