AMON AMARTH Unleashes New Viking Anthem “We Rule The Waves”

Sweden’s undisputed purveyors of all things Viking metal Amon Amarth has returned with thunderous force thanks to their brand new single “We Rule The Waves”. Produced by Grammy-nominated heavyweight Jacob Hansen — renowned for his work with Volbeat, Arch Enemy, The Black Dahlia Murder, and Katatonia — “We Rule The Waves” delivers a relentless assault of galloping riffs, crashing rhythms, and mythic grandeur. It also has talks about how they’re Vikings, just in case you forgot.
The official music video, filmed in Riga, Latvia, continues the band’s dynamic visual collaboration with director Pavel Trebukhin of Tre Film, who previously helmed the band’s visually stunning videos for “The Great Heathen Army,” “Heidrun,” and “Saxons & Vikings.” In true Amon Amarth fashion, the video is as cinematic as it is brutal.
The band shares, “‘We Rule The Waves’ is our tribute to the spirit of freedom, brotherhood, and the will to conquer — not just lands, but your own limitations. It’s about standing tall with your clan, facing the storm head-on, and carving your mark into the world like a Viking longship through blackened seas.'”
Alongside the new release, Amon Amarth has launched limited-edition exclusive merchandise tied to the single, available now through their Victorious merch store. Fans can order region-specific items via designated locations for European and US audiences — a perfect companion for those ready to answer the band’s call to arms. Get it here.
