AMON AMARTH: Full Album Stream Hosted By Bloody Disgusting!

Today, popular horror site Bloody Disgusting streams AMON AMARTH's long-anticipated full-length, Surtur Rising, in its entirety! Scheduled for North American release via Metal Blade on March 29, 2011, the record, which was voted among Decibel Magazine's most anticipated albums of 2011, marks the eighth studio offering from the melodic death metal tyrants. The stream will go live at 11:59pm EST on March 25, 2011 and ends at 11:59pm EST on March 28, 2011.
 
Noted Decibel of the record: "it's a pleasure to learn one of metal's most consistent bands remains as indefatigable as ever." Stereokiller commended the production stating: "Johan Hegg's vocals continue to be one of the bands strongest points, captivating the listener with clearly enunciated, yet gruff and powerful vocals," while Metal Assault commended the band for "an album that has enormous aggression, entrancing melody and everything in between... the band's most well-rounded and musically richest album to date." Added L.A. Music Blog, "Surtur Rising is the epitome of what death metal should be: ferocious and crushing...possibly the band’s best work to date."
