Looks like this Information was given exclusively in Terrorizer Magazine (that's what google finds).
And apparently they know more than Metal Blade Records themselves
So I don't know if this Info is reliable or not. This is what I found:
http://truecultheavymetal.com/blog1.php/2010/11/24/amon-amarth-reveal-new-album-title
Amon Amarth have revealed that their upcoming new album is set to be titled 'Surtur Rising'.
Speaking to Terrorizer, frontman-mountain Johan Hegg comments; "The album title is probably going to be 'Surtur Rising'. That's also one of the song titles and we're working on the others. Obviously the songs are going to be Amon Amarth, that's what we've always done, but we wanted to put a little more edge to our sound, so hopefully that's going to come out after the mixing and everything. We've laid down ten tracks, and as is usual for us, every one of them is going to end up on the album."
More info in Terrorizer issue 205, out December 30!
'Sutur Rising' will be released March 29 on Metal Blade

After exclusively revealing the title of Amon Amarth's upcoming new album to Terrorizer yesterday, frontman Johan Hegg has also commented on the band's spring tour with Finnish chums Children of Bodom.
Comments Johan; "It's always great fun to head out with the Bodom guys, we've been out on tour with them twice in the US already. It's been great every time, so for us this felt like a really good opportunity because Bodom are really big over [in the UK]. We were looking for a tour in the UK to bring our music to a bigger crowd, and we've been growing quite well there over the past four years, so to be able to tour with Bodom is hopefully gonna give us a chance to spread our music."

April 01 UEA Norwich

Amon Amarth's new album 'Sutur Rising' will be released 29 March on Metal Blade
None of those Infos regarding the new album can be found on official sites of Amon Amarth or Metal Blade.
But what the heck / (hegg ^^) 29th of March would be incredible! Didn't expect the new Album so early
