Swedish death metallers AMON AMARTH will release their new album, "The Allfather Awakens", on October 2 via Metal Blade Records. The 10-song masterwork further cements the legacy of the Swedish metal titans' spectacularly memorable riffs and unflinching melodic aural power.

For AMON AMARTH, a new album marks the beginning of a new world. As with previous records, Oden, the Norse "all father" who is a deity of war, wisdom, death, magic, and poetry, is the through-line in AMON AMARTH's lyrics and artwork. Once again, Oden is the band's inspiration, but "The Allfather Awakens" is not a concept album, rather a collection of historically inspired epic tales of conflict and sacrifice for a greater good.
