Amon Amarth Unleash First New Song in Three Years: "We Rule the Waves"

After a three-year silence in the studio, Swedish Viking metal legends Amon Amarth have returned today with a thunderous new single titled "We Rule the Waves" a track that not only reaffirms their dominance but sails deeper into the mythic waters of their sound.

Released alongside a stunning cinematic video, We Rule the Waves is everything fans have come to expect and crave: pounding riffs, battle cries from the Norse underworld, and visuals that feel like a saga carved in stone. The video immerses us in storm-lashed seas, ancient ships, and a warrior spirit that is unmistakably Amon Amarth.

This marks the band’s first new material since their 2022 album The Great Heathen Army, and it lands during their massive co-headlining tour with Pantera, making this release feel not just like a return — but a declaration of war.

Johan Hegg’s vocals sound as fierce as ever, and the band seems reinvigorated, delivering a track that blends epic atmosphere with brute force. The lyrical themes continue their saga-style storytelling, invoking imagery of conquest, loyalty, and the violent beauty of the sea.

Whether you're seeing them on tour with Pantera or watching the video from home, Amon Amarth have made it clear: the waves are theirs to command.

Watch the video now and prepare to raise your horns.
