Amon Amarth

Berserker

Shield Wall

Vocals

Solid melodeath vocals.

Music

I like how this song starts off fast paced. Then it slows down, almost like the group is trying to gain the strength and courage to engage in battle. The chorus is very catchy! Nice energetic song.

Lyrics

The lyrics center around the nature of battle. Vikings are known particularly for their dedication to being brave and willing to fight. Apparently, way back, my dad's side of my family were from Norway.

Vikings!
Raise the shield wall!
Hold the front line!
Fight 'til death!

A chain is never stronger than its weakest link
We'll hold this wall together
Our hearts will never sink
