Deceiver is one of their best. Far superior than Berserker and Jombs, even Surtur is boring.

Fucking great! After the mediocre Surtur Rising this is just fucking metal! Cant wait to see them perform this masterpiece live.

I thought having lyrics about vikings was enough to be "viking metal", since I didn't think "viking metal" was a real genre, but apparently it is. Which is pretty dumb when you think about it. I doubt it sounds anything like the music vikings had. Black metal wasn't invented back then. What gives some bands who sing about vikings more right to call their sound "viking metal" than other bands? But yeah, personally I would never call AA anything other than melodic death, I always thought "viking metal" was a stupid and useless label anyway.

People, stop tagging Amon Amarth as viking metal. Just having lyrics about vikings doesn't make a band viking metal.

Top-notch record! I love how "As Loke Falls" has that Judas Priest-vibe with very melodic hooks and dueling guitars, "Blood Eagle" is (literally) visceral, while "Under Siege" and "Warriors of the North" are quite epic and progressive. "Hel" is a highlight as well thanks to Messiah Marcolin's performance, but I'll go that far and say this album has no fillers, at max, some songs can be derivative to greater tracks of old. Still, most fans will quickly pick up how this album has tracks that stand out from the rest of the discography and don't sound as similar as one might expect.
