The Pursuit Of Vikings: 25 Years In The Eye Of The Storm | CD+2DVD

Amon Amarth seem to be a rather unlikely successful band because lets be honest here, the market for Swedish Viking Death Metal would seem to be a rather narrow one. It's therefore a testament to the quality of the band that they have indeed broken out of the confines of a niche band and become something of a hit, certainly in the northern mainland European countries where they even managed a number one album in Germany.And, to be honest if you like metal then it's hard not to like Amon Amarth because despite the growly vocals that to be fair are not everyone's cup of tea - although I think they suit this genre perfectly - the actual music is simply some of the most headbangingly catchy, riffiest sound out there. Amon Amarth have utterly nailed what it means to make heavy metal that grabs you by the nads and doesn't let go.This 3 disc set is a great moment in time captured. The first disc is a documentary - which as it's by the band for the band isn't likely to be an expose - but is nevertheless a highly interesting back history. And the one thing that really does come across is that the members of the band are decent, humble and thoroughly nice blokes. Modest too. It's a nice antithesis to the overblown ego driven garbage that many global artists punt out.Discs 2 and 3 are the video and the CD of a live concert which captures Amon Amarth perfectly. Clearly they revile in the slightly silliness of it all but do display a genuine reverence of the old Viking histories that underlie their music.Overall, if you like very heavy but very catchy metal, then buy away. This is a great set of discs.

Another amazing Amon Amarth performance captured live. The only complain is that the version i got does not include the T Stage show. Im confused because on the Metal Blade store and Amazon Uk page says that both shows are featured on dvd and blu ray. But for the price i think its worth it.

My son said that the DVDs that come with the CD are really interesting, they tell you about how the band started and more. He also loves the CD too. Not my cup of tea but anyone liking this band should really enjoy listening and watching them

Great music and nice to hear doros voice

All 3 disks are amazing. The live show is excellent. The documentary was really interesting.

Came as described good packaging

Cofanetto acquistato l'8 ottobre, ricevuto il 18. Ottime le condizioni, pur trattandosi di un prodotto usato. Prezzo buono (16,60€). Eccellente, come sempre, il giudizio sul venditore rebuy recommerce GmbH IT. Per quanto riguarda la musica, il dvd (doppio) e il cd contengono l'esibizione del gruppo svedese al Summer Breeze del 2017. La qualità video e quella audio sono ottime, e la band suona ancora più potente che in studio. Consigliato ai completisti e a chi ama il melodic death metal. Il booklet non contiene i testi. Stay Metal.

Two concerts and one behind the scenes movie made this an awesome deal. The quality was just fantastic. And the music, wow, just wow.

So daaaamnnn goood!! Amon Amarth unique sound blast in the two concerts in here. The documental abouy their history really makes you enjoy the journey.

Dos conciertos y un docu en este disco hicieron 2 conciertos en el festival Summer Breeze, uno en el escenario principal (17 de agosto) y otro en el escenario T (16 de agosto) este segundo fue un concierto mas intimo donde compartieron con los fans temas más antiguos que no suelen aparecer en un directo normal, en cuanto al concierto en el escenario principal ofrecieron el típico setlist que llevan haciendo en todo el 2017 (y que más adelante comentaremos) acompañado de bastante pirotecnia.En total entre los dos conciertos suma un tiempo de 2 horas y media.

Para los amantes del Viking Metal es un gran grupo y de calidad
