“Berserkers! We will lead a Swedish metal invasion of North America this September and October along with our friends Arch Enemy, At The Gates and Grand Magus,” adds headliners Amon Amarth. “Come fight and feast with us and earn your seat in the great golden hall. This raid is pure heavy fucking metal and not to be missed!”
Arch Enemy guitarist Michael Amott states, “Arch Enemy is very much looking forward to invading North America together with Swedish Viking kings Amon Amarth and our Metal brothers in At The Gates and Grand Magus! Miss this Swedish Heavy Metal apocalypse at your own peril!”
Grand Magus’ JB concludes, “I would say that epic is the most fitting word to describe this happening. It’s an honour to be part of this gathering of metal giants and we will do our damnedest to make it a memory for life for all who will bang their heads with us during this adventure!”
Last week, the band released their new music video for the track “The Colours Of The Beast” created by Costin Chioreanu / Twilight13Media. Watch the video HERE. The track is off of the band’s highly acclaimed album To Drink From The Night Itself.
