Swedish viking metal marauders, AMON AMARTH continue their domination with a brand new music video for their epic Valhalla feast track "Heidrun" off their chart-topping record The Great Heathen Army. Additionally, AMON AMARTH have unleashed a special 4-track digital single of "Heidrun" featuring a newly remixed version of the single plus two live bonus tracks and a "goat remix" version featuring actual goat vocals (full track list below). Watch the official music video for "Heidrun" on KNAC.COM HERE and find the digital single on your streaming platform of choice.
Frontman Johan Hegg sheds light on the mythological significance of "Heidrun" -
"Heidrun is an interesting mythological character, it's a goat that stands on the roof of Valhalla eating the leaf of the big tree Larad. The milk that she gives is the honey/mead that the warriors in Valhalla drink each night. The lyrics themselves are both about Vikings travelling the world but also metaphorically what it is to be a touring musician."
"Heidrun" Digital Single Track List:
- "Heidrun (2023 Remix)"
- "Heidrun (Live at Graspop, 2023)"
- "Put Your Back Into The Oar (Live at Hellfest, 2023)"
- "Heidrun (Goat Remix)"
Following their hugely successful 'The Great Heathen Tour' at the end of last year, which saw them become the first death metal band to ever headline the legendary KIA Forum in Los Angeles, AMON AMARTH's relentless raid continues this week as they invade US shores once again. This time they will join forces with fellow Swedes GHOST for their 25-date 'Re-Imperatour USA 2023' run as well as playing Riverside, CA on September 9th with GATECREEPER. Ready your long swords, prepare for battle and grab your tickets and meet and greet packages.
