Amon Amarth announce new documentary ‘The Pursuit Of Vikings: 25 Years In The Eye Of The Storm’
AMON AMARTH have announced a new documentary!
Titled The Pursuit Of Vikings: 25 Years In The Eye Of The Storm, the upcoming documentary captures the glorious history of heavy metal’s greatest Vikings!
The documentary features a wealth of live and behind-the-scenes content and extensive band interviews. This film tells their history, through both their own eyes and those of the fans that have supported them along the way. UK fans will spot some clips from last year’s Bloodstock, when the band were one of the festival’s headliners, including interviews with festival director Vicky Hungerford and long-time attendee Tom Berry.
Alongside the documentary, included in the package is two different sets at 2017’s Summer Breeze Festival in Dinkelsbühl, Germany. The two sets showcase AMON AMARTH performing a secret, smaller scale set that focused primarily on older material, and then headlining the main stage with full production. Speaking about the experience, guitarist Olavi Mikkonen says, “for the first night, we wanted to write a set that the fans would enjoy by wholly diving into our back catalogue but also keeping it interesting. But putting the two shows together also made us realise that we have a lot of songs to choose from!”
Also, you can view the track listing for both of those captured sets in the breakdown of the DVD/Blu-Ray contents below:
