Death in Fire when I was a 16 year old kid discovering metal, the video clip on TV with these men windmill headbanging on a live stage playing a style that was dark but ultra melodic at the same time. I thought I'd come into a goldmine.

For the Stabwounds in our backs, my head is part of the riff

[DJTheMetalheadMercenary]

Still their best album imo, still listening to this gem 21 years strong.

[hatecorpse]

They still haven't touched this album. I love the band don't get me wrong. But I can't fathom how this album isn't highlighted as THE MASTERPIECE. It's fucking perfect all the way through. That perfect ground that viking metal is always trying to find in between meaning and heavy without being cheesy or a novelty. This album hits no matter what. If you've never heard it before or the genre. It's perfect after all these years.

forgot how much i love this album, geez i was literally 13 -14 listening to this everydady. crazy

Early 2000's Amon Amarth, for my money and for heavy metal, doesn't get much better. Vs. The World, The Fate of Norns, and With Oden on our side is one of the best 3 albums runs in my book. All killer, and no filler, just wall to wall bangers.

[elliottpaine]

Death in the fire - amazing drums and everything !

[Johnny.]

Thousands years of oppression and Rainbow bridge are legendary. My favorites of this amazing album

[eiswanderer]

This album started a long journey into melodic death metal for me, whose end is still not within sight

[Koraxus]

I like Amon Amarth because unlike many other "Melodic Death Metal" bands, this is mostly still derived from Death Metal as opposed to Power Metal.

[ProfessorPuffyPants]

Still my favorite album of all time, dont care what you think.

[ESP]

Absolutely still one of their best of all time 🤘🔥🔨

[MetalDoraemon]

The best AA album and one of the best death Metal of all times

[Mack]

Across the Rainbow Bridge is one of the best metal songs I've ever heard, top 5. Or even just one of the best songs regardless of genre. It's like 1000 pages of Tolkien wrapped into 4 minutes.

[shonlarson]

Thank you again to my viking friend Chris. Such a good album and such a good friend! I will never forget either!

[NewNova]

Found this album inside salvaged audio tape.The only track I was able to understand was "Bloodshed", so I searched "Bloodshed metal song" and find it ! Glad to discover another band this way ! (previously God Dethroned on the same tape, but the Amon Amarth one was cut at the end because of the lack of space)

[thehellwecreated_official]

Awesome Record! The Drum Sound is so perfect🤘👌

[jacob]

Decades later, I still play this album very regularly. When I'm at my store and have this on, everyone who comes in and has a taste for metal ALWAYS leaves a new fan of Amon Amarth.

[AlefyOliveira]

This is an album that every track is great, holy shit, so good! Congrats from Brazil.

[Gustavo-dqku]

Que bien se siente volver aquí, este álbum envejeció como el vino.
