AMON AMARTH Announces New Album 'The Allfather Awakens', Shares 'Gjallarhorn' Single

The 10-song record arrives October 2 via Metal Blade and includes the singles "Upphaf" and "We Rule The Waves."

  • Swedish metal band Amon Amarth released new single "Gjallarhorn" ahead of their 13th studio album, "The Allfather Awakens," set for October 2 via Metal Blade Records.
  • Following the acoustic single "Upphaf," the band returned to death metal roots, recording the album across two sessions at producer Jacob Hansen's Denmark studio during touring.
  • Frontman Johann Hegg described the 10-song record as "a very diverse album" themed around Oden, the Norse "allfather," reflecting the band's evolution after three decades together.
  • Amon Amarth will headline a UK and European tour starting October 9, debuting a revamped stage production inspired by Oden's legendary Golden Hall instead of their traditional longboat.
  • Cultural momentum builds as their signature "Viking row" phenomenon has reached global events including the 2026 World Cup, while anticipation grows for their North American tour with Dethklok and Castle Rat.
