Amon Amarth is a Swedish [[Melodic Death Metal]] band from Tumba, founded in 1988, and is named after the Elvish name for Mount Doom, a location in J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. They're known for a very dark sound with imagery taken largely from vikings and [[Norse Mythology]].
The band comprises vocalist Johan Hegg, guitarists Olavi Mikkonen and Johan Söderberg, bassist Ted Lundström and drummer Fredrik Andersson. Amon Amarth has released seven studio albums, one EP, one DVD, and six music videos.

** The songs "Destroyer of the Universe" and "The Last Stand of Frej" from ''Surtur Rising'' both deal with the final battle between Surtur and Freyr, the former from Surtur's perspective and the latter from Freyr's.
* [[Professional Killer]]: ''The Hero'', which is about a mercenary rejecting the notion that he is anything more than an evil man.
* [[Punctuated!
** The one shown above as well: "Sword! in! my! Hand! Axe! on my! Side! Val-hall a-waits! Soon! I will die!".
* [[Rain of Arrows]]: Happens in "An Ancient Sign Of Coming Storm".
