Amon Amarth is a Swedish melodic death metal band from Tumba, founded in 1988, and is named after an alternative name for Mount Doom, a location in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. As of 2009, the band is signed with Metal Blade Records and has released seven studio albums, one EP, one DVD, and six music videos. Fate of Norns is the fifth full-length studio album by Amon Amarth. It was released on September 6, 2004 through Metal Blade Records. This album continued their slower, heavier sound which started on the previous album Versus the World. Before Fate of Norns was officially released by Metal Blade, promo copies were distributed with CD-ROM extras including pictures, biographies, sheets and logos. The album was released in conventional LP format as well as a limited digipak edition. The latter includes a live bonus DVD, Amon Amarth Live at Grand Rokk, which features live recordings and three-camera footage of a live performance in Reykjavík, Iceland on March 5, 2004. "The Pursuit of Vikings" was also made into a music video. 01 - An Ancient Sign Of Coming Storm 02 - Where Death Seems To Dwell 03 - The Fate Of Norns 04 - Pursuit Of Vikings 05 - The Valkyries Ride 06 - Beheading Of A King 07 - Arson 08 - Once Sealed In Blood LINK
