I have to agree here. I only have "Those Once Loyal" but it is quite dark. It is midpaced and the vocals are delivered in a deep yet comprehendible fashion. It's really quite good.
Recommend me dark death metal

I wasn't supporting the idea of Amon Amarth being Viking Metal, I was calling you a fucking dork for calling it a fact that they weren't. That's like saying the color red is better than blue because it's a fact.
Anyway numbskull, does that mean you believe Christians can make black metal? Afterall, music genres are not determined by lyrics and thats a FACT.

I do think that Christians can make black metal. Black metal is a musical sound, not a lyrical theme.Funeral Portrait said:

Christians can't make good music period. I don't care what anyone thinks.
Guitar playing style,sound,drum playing/technique's,vocals ect define a music style imo. Lyrics are just icing on the cake.
Christians regardless will not be able to play black metal,etc.. whatever in a right fashion because since they're 'christians' they will not be influenced or even heard some originators that define playing techique's,etc.. in whatever genre because the bands have different. Who are these so called christian black metal,death metal bands being infleunced by making them think they play a certain style.

Actually, you have to hear the band Horde before making that judgement. They are an amazing Christian black metal band, and obviously have heard to originators.
I never said that genres are defined by lyrics.
But viking metal is not determined by being blackish.
Otherwise some Bathory Viking albums would not be viking metal, but doomisch power metal or something.
A similiar case are bands like Ensiferum that are Power Metal with viking lyrics and black vocals.
Definitely Amon Amarth do not only have viking lyrics, but also that epic "viking-sound".
Death Metal is something else.

^ Exactly.
For example, Falkenbach's 'Ok Nefna Tysvar Ty' sounds barely even Metal...though it's still Viking Metal. Labeling is such a hard thing to do, and I'm still confused myself as to what Amon Amarth shold be called. I don't mind calling them Viking Metal though.

There should be more clear criteria for when a band is considered viking metal. Like: each band member needs to have set fire to atleast 5 buildings and to have raped atleast 3 women. If a band has a member who has, on his own, pillaged an entire city then the whole band is instantly considered viking metal.
It also helps if one of the members owns a boat.

Heh, well don't the members of Amon Amarth wear Thors hammer's?
Oh yeah and raping women= Not a common Viking occurance. They tended to not mess with the women in such ways, they knew if they did it'd be suicide.
The kings, on the other hand...

Alright... If you're willing to die, then go ahead.
And I think Viking Metal is already a genre with a variety of different sounding bands.
