I am looking for bands similar to Amon Amarth.

[Spanish_Lass]

The guy who made that kickass painting!

Indeed the very one!!!

 

[Antyman]

 

[Dragon Of Earth]

i've seen several topics on different message boards asking the same thing (i myself asked it a couple times b4) the answer as alays been: none... or at the very least "none as good as AA" or something to that effect. makes it a bitch to find more bands of that type of style & lyrics. lol

 

[heavy metal]

another band i like is omnium gatherum the finnish melodic death metallers. i have seen them twice met the lead singer they are class act.

 

[BurningCreation]

Listen to Insomnium, trust me when I say you will love them.

Agreed! Looking forward to their new album in a couple months

Another band I really enjoy are Kromlek, a bit more folk sounding on a few songs than AA but you have the deep growls and similar content. A couple of my favourites at the moment:

Strandhagg Pt. II - Wave Bound:​

Strandhagg Pt. III - The Landing​

 

[Hagg]

Love it!!!

 

[Dragon Of Earth]

i also agree that Insomnium & God Dethroned are good bands.. so check them out, if ya haven't already... god dethroned's newest album (Passiondale) is really good, allof heir albums are prety good, but i like that passiondale is a concept abum about WW1.. it's a nice touch, imo.

Try "Forefather" or "Wolves Of Hate" - Forefather especially, play a mix of death metal tinged with folk elements and even sing some lyrics in Old (Anglo-Saxon) English, their latest album, "Steadfast" is well worth checking out, hope you enjoy it!

 

[Mordoroth]

Check out Elite from Norway, ther're pretty good. Its black metal though but with good atmosphere. Also you can check out our profile on MySpace. We're recording our debut CD which will be released this autumn, but there are some songs online that might give you an idea of the sound of the CD.

Hails and horns up high!

[Iseldor]

[DanielViking]

you can try spectral and black messiah. good bands in my opinion. obscurity is also very good!

 

[Behemoth24]

I remember making this thread, didn't know it was still bumped up. Yes, I used to be Guardian of Asgaard, I lost the password. I decided to make a new name and here I am.

 

[Illnath]

holy crap it's you again!

I cut my hair!!! Hopefully I look less like a girl now.

Seawolves want to be Amon Amarth very badly. But they are not. Not even close. But they want so badly...if only they could drop the gay jollyfolk shit.

This one is alright. Poor vocals. Musically, this is stuff that AA would play, but structure-wise they're not there yet.

 

[amon666]

not bad at all!
