Amon Amarth Reject Viking Metal Label
. Hegg recently wrapped up filming on new movie Northmen - A Viking Saga, in which he plays a viking warrior called Valli. And Amon Amarth sing about viking culture and even feature images of the warriors on their artwork - but still Hegg would rather not be branded a viking metal band. He tells Metalinside: "It's weird to label a band after the lyrical content because, in that case, Iron Maiden is a viking metal band, Black Sabbath is a viking metal band, Led Zeppelin is a viking metal band. "You can make the list very, very long. And we're nothing alike, musically. I think to make the label based on lyrics is taking the easy way out. Rather than describing what the audience can expect to hear, they just add add 'viking'. It's an easy way to do it." Read more here. TeamRock Radio is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
