Original Airdate 3/29/2016Cooper and Radulich review the latest from Amon Amarth, Jomsviking.Jomsviking is the tenth studio album from Swedish melodic death metal band Amon Amarth. It was mixed and produced by Andy Sneap and released on March 25, 2016 through Metal Blade Records. This is the band's first concept album. Vocalist Johan Hegg described the concept of the album:The Jomsvikings and their world is the background for the story of a young man that is in love with a girl but unfortunately she's being married off. He accidentally kills a man when this happens and he has to flee — but he swears to have revenge and win her back. He can't let go of the past. He feels that he's been wronged and his life has been destroyed. The way the story evolves is not a happy story — Johan Hegg, BlabbermouthDisclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsoFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76
The new album from Saxon, "Hell, Fire and Damnation" drops on January 19th, and frontman Biff Byford was nice enough to join me to discuss it, and lots more. "It's a monster title, isn't it?" Biff asked when I brought up the title. That it is! He told me what the title meant, it goes back a long way. "I don't know why we didn't use it before". He spoke about bringing back the 80s on some aspects of the album, even going back to the beginning of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Biff talked about how fast this album came together and why they're releasing it to start the new year, as opposed to releasing it near the end of 2024. There's a reason they decided to get it out earlier, as Biff explained. "It all came together pretty quickly" as far as the album is concerned. Biff said, "The Metal Gods were looking down on us" He spoke about the process of writing and recording the album. This album is also mixed and produced by Andy Sneap, who has worked with the band several times. "It's everything, new music. It's lifeblood." is how he responded to the question of what new music means to Saxon. He said they're always on a quest to write the perfect song/album. He also told me about the song he did with Amon Amarth, "Saxons and Vikings". He talked about meeting the guys and becoming friends with them. "I do like the song, actually...it's a great song". The style of his voice along with Johan Hegg's makes for an interesting sound. Always fun talking with Biff, a great way to close out the year!

Johan Hegg und Olavi Mikkonen im Interview zum neuen Amon Amarth-Album THE GREAT HEATHEN ARMY. Plus: die Pantera-Reunion im Fokus.
A coward thinks he'll always liveIf he keeps himself from strifeOld age leaves no rest and peaceThough spears may spare his lifeJag minns att jag satt och våndades över alla negativa reaktioner jag skulle få. Det var 2013 och jag behövde klara en deadline för en rapport i ett kontroversiellt ämne, men fick bara mer skrivkramp. Jag drack ett par öl, blev lite berusad, men skriva gick inte. Men så hörde jag strofen ovan i låten Live without regrets av Amon Amarth. Den hjälpte mig där och då. Ren magi. Låten sattes på repeat, och jag blev klar med min rapport i tid. Orden har stannat kvar hos mig – med sångaren Johan Heggs death growl. I dagens podd pratar jag med just Johan Hegg, som sagt är han sångare i Amon Amarth. Genren är death metal, även om tematiken som bandet använder har gjort att det ibland kallas “vikingametal”. Det är också mer melodiöst än mycket annan death metal, vilket tilltalar mig. Amon Amarths låtar kretsar, som ni förstår, runt vikingar och fornnordisk mytologi. Just nu är de aktuella med en ny skiva med titeln The Great Heathen Army som släpps den femte augusti (förbeställ här!). Jag har fått privilegiet att lyssna på skivan på förhand och kan avslöja att den är en av deras starkaste, även om det är så jag brukar känna när de släpper en ny skiva. För jag är inte objektiv för fem öre: om jag fick ta med mig musik från ett enda band till en öde ö hade det varit Amon Amarth. Gärna den nya skivan. Dagens samtal handlar om vilka vikingarna var, några särskilt viktiga scener ur deras låtar med betydelse för historien, varför man alltid kan upptäcka något nytt i fornnordisk mytologi och hur den kan inspirera oss i dag samt vad det innebär att vara ett metalhead. Deras turné inleds i september och den 24:e kommer de till Hovet i Stockholm. Hoppas vi ses där!

La espera ha terminado, hoy el grupo de death metal melódico AMON AMARTH ha puesto a la venta "Berserker", su 11º disco de estudio, a través de Metal Blade Records para Norteamérica y Sony Music para el resto del mundo. "Berserker" es el resultado de la creatividad y del progreso sin límites del grupo sueco. El nuevo esfuerzo discográfico de AMON AMARTH está compuesto por 12 canciones que conservan la energía y fuerza del grupo pero con un sonido más refinado, acústicamente mejorado y más potente. "Berserker" está ya disponible en formato Digipack, 2LP, Edición Deluxe (Digipack, escudo y parche) y en formato digital a través de las plataformas habituales de streaming (Spotify, Apple Music...). El afamado productor Jay Ruston (ANTHRAX, STEEL PANTHER, URIAH HEEP…) ha sido el encargado de dirigir la grabación de “Berserker” en los Sphere Studios de Hollywood, California (EEUU). Sobre el nuevo trabajo de AMON AMARTH, su vocalista Johan Hegg declaró lo siguiente: "Para mí, esto es AMON AMARTH 2.0. Creo que lo que hemos hecho aquí es darnos el espacio para explorar otras partes de nuestra musicalidad y quienes somos como banda. Si estás satisfecho con el lugar donde estás, ¿por qué continuar? Siempre queremos proponer nuevas ideas y encontrar nuevas formas de hacer las cosas y ofrecer conciertos más grandes y mejores, y realmente tratar de mejorar la banda en cada uno de sus aspectos". "Queremos seguir creciendo y dedicarnos a esto mientras tengamos la posibilidad de hacerlo, porque este es el mejor trabajo del mundo." Track List de “Berserker” Fafner's Gold Crack the Sky Mjo?lner, Hammer of Thor Shield Wall Valkyria Raven's flight Ironside The Berserker at Stamford Bridge When Once Again We Can Set Our Sails Skoll and Hati Wings of Eagles Into the Dark El último disco de la formación de death metal, "Jomsviking", debutó en el puesto número 19 en la lista Billboard 200 en marzo de 2016. El disco, producido y mezclado por Andy Sneap (JUDAS PRIEST, MEGADETH, TESTAMENT, ACCEPT), se lanzó a través de Metal Blade en Norteamérica y Sony Music a nivel internacional.
Som 12-åring gick han till biblioteket i Tumba och lånade "Snorres Edda" och andra böcker om nordisk mytologi. Som 18-åring blev han sångare i death metal-bandet Scum som bytte namn till Amon Amarth och under 2000-talet har erövrat världen lika framgångsrikt som vikingarna i deras låtar. Hemma hos Strage pratar Johan Hegg om bärsärkarna, de mytomspunna vikingakrigarna som skövlade allt i sin väg och har gett namn åt Amon Amarths nya album "Berserker". Han berättar också att han anlitat en osteopat för att kunna headbanga utan nackskador, att han oroar sig för klimatuppvärmningen och att vikingarna var världsmedborgare som knappast skulle uppskatta sina högerextrema fans. Hemma hos Strage presenteras i samarbete med Oatly och stipendiet Årets Hållbara Artist. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Johan Hegg of Amon Amarth is our guest this week. We discuss Amon Amarth's new live retrospective and documentary The Pursuit of Vikings: 25 years in the Eye of the Storm, his feelings on live albums in general, whether it's possible to capture a band's connection with the audience on video, the importance of Europe's “The Final Countdown" to the origins of Amon Amarth, the 8-bit video game the band released and his favorite video games when he was growing up, the influence of the recently deceased Stan Lee on his life, and the weapon he would choose to fight with in a Viking battle. Petar and Brandon discover the fetish-finding company everybody needs, the couple that decided to make a baby at the front row of a Machine Head concert, Ihsahn making us all fans of Kanye West by explaining his appreciation for the rapper, and what we think is the most artistic stage of a band's career.

"Heavy metal is a way of life, but it is not for the faint of heart. The history of metal is strewn with fading memories of bands that fell apart when times were tough. But history is written by the victors, and Amon Amarth have been marching purposefully from triumph to greater triumph for the last two decades. Formed amid the fertile Swedish metal scene in the mid ‘90s, these dedicated diehards brought a new sense of drama and destruction to the world of heavy music, propagating tales of Viking mythology and mortal combat over a devastating soundtrack of crushing rhythms, refined melody and rousing, rebellious refrains." Ben talked to Johan Hegg about what makes a good festival and their mobile game. Aired 22nd March 2018.
