      Don’t get me wrong but i like Amon Amarth, but that was horrible. Why not like a cover of Manowar? I could understand that influence.

    • A Manowar cover would be badass (how could it not?), but expected and predictable. A SOAD cover is neither, and good for Amon Amarth for trying something a bit different. For a band that some constantly criticize for never changing or “growing as an artist,” I’d think that people would welcome their willingness to step outside the Euro/viking/power/melo-death box. But no, that would be a lost opportunity to bitch about something.

      @ noraad it’s bad enough you dress like a lawn knome. youre a freaking idiot! they dont dress like vikings! thats like talking shit about Nile for dressing like egyptians? theres no validity in anything you say now. who gives a fuck how people dress anyways? youre stupid. knome fail. and @ livetothrash. how unoriginal and lame-ass would that be? a norse concept band covering another one? hey maybe metallica should have covered a megadeth song instead of doing “whiskey in the jar”? think about it. why would johnny cash cover nine inch nails instead of someone like dave alvin or jerry lee lewis? good covers are by artists thinking outside the box. maybe thinking outside the box is something you and element should try sometime. amon amarth \m/
