AMON AMARTH ADDED TO
"UNHOLY ALLIANCE TOUR,
CHAPTER III" UK/EURO TREK
Los Angeles, CA - July 2, 2008 -- Renowed
Swedish death metal band AMON AMARTH has been
added to the "Unholy Alliance Tour, Chapter III"
lineup, which features Slayer, Trivium, and
Mastodon.
Since 1992, Amon Amarth - Johan Hegg/vocals,
Olavi Mikkonen/guitar, Johan Soderberg/guitar,
Ted Lundstrom/bass, and Fredrik Andersson/drums
- has managed to establish themselves as one of
Europe's top death metal acts. What has set the
band apart from the rest of the scene is their
use of Viking mythology and imagery in their
lyrics and artwork, as well as their talent for
writing epic, memorable melodies, which
underline their solemn yet barbaric approach to
heavy music. The band's seventh studio album, as
yet untitled, is due out this Fall on Metal
Blade Records.
The UK/Euro run kicks off in Manchester, England
on October 27 and will play nearly two dozen
shows over a four-week period. This is the third
installment of what has been hailed as "the
heaviest, darkest tour of the year." With more
dates to be announced, the initial itinerary for
the European "Unholy Alliance Tour, Chapter III"
