Amon Amarth "Runes to my Memory" (OFFICIAL VIDEO)

In the name of Odin i command you to upload a better quality video!!!

We rode the rivers of the Eastern trail,
Deep in the land of the Rus'.
Following the wind in our sails,
And the rhythm of the oars.
No shelter in this hostile land,
Constantly on guard.
Ready to fight and defend
Our ship 'til the bitter end.

We came under attack,
I received a deadly wound.
A spear was forced into my back
Still I fought on.

When I am dead,
Lay me in a mound.
Raise a stone for all to see
Runes carved to my memory

Now here I lay on the river bank
A long, long way from home
Life is pouring out of me
Soon I will be gone.

I tilt my head to the side
And think of those back home
I see the river rushing by
Like blood runs from my wound.

Here I lie on wet sand,
I will not make it home.
I clinch my sword in my hand,
Say farewell to those I love.

When I am dead,
Lay me in a mound.
Place my weapons by my side
For the journey to Hall up high
When I am dead,
Lay me in a mound.
Raise a stone for all to see
Runes carved to my memory

Amon Amarth, still the kings of synchronized hair swinging.

I can't believe it is ten years since this came out.

They would make great ceiling fans.

There is literally nothing more metal than metalhead vikings.

To all of you with no viking ancestors, these lyrics may apply to you:
♪♩
When I am bored
I lay on the couch
Turning on my TV Screen
Netflix comes to memory!
♫♪

Our beloved Norwegian rat Cernunnos lost his battle with pneumonia today. He was the most caring and affectionate rat of our 25+. He was the first at the door; we keep them open at all times, with love in his eyes and lots of licking and affection for myself and all. I only name my pets after Cernunnos when they are the sweetest and most loving. We raised him from birth, he was almost 2 years of age my wife held him abreast all night and day, I placed my boar’s tusk with him to give him strength, which helped him live until 12:30 PM today Eastern Standard time. He was once a giant and mighty rat, yet as gentle and affectionate. He will be missed eternally; we will give him a pyre funeral, and bury him in a mound, with a stone with runes carved to his memory on one side, and Celtic Ogham on the other. I havenae felt this way about an animal friend since my dog Murphy passed in 2002. Let the ravens carry you home to the underworld gently….. Tha gaol agam ort Cernunnos! Jeg elsker deg Cernunnos!!!

UPDATE THIS VIDEO FOR GOD'S SAKE, it's unwatchable at 240p.

headbanging masters!!!

The opening riff was amazing

Full bronze armor for 40g, Runescape to my memory.

Funny how everyone cries about the 240p. I watched the video back in 2006 and it's still as amazing. (:

Metal Bade really needs to update the resolution of this video, 240p????!!!

That is what metal should sound like! I'm glad someone is doing it right!

Such an underrated band. What a masterpiece of melodic, Black Metal.

These guys need to take up bodybuilding. That skinny-fat thing doesn't work with the viking imagery.

Can't believe this is official at only 240p. Must've been some kinda mistake, please correct it. I will go dig out the DVD in the mean while. (bonus with the Jap Deciever of the Gods)

I love this song raise the horns motherfuckers

Loke's bad luck is on me! Today they are going to play in Istanbul and I'm in Poland.. on the 4th of August I'm flying to Istanbul from Poland and on the same day they are going to play in Poland.........

I remember my senior year recorded this on a vhs tape and played it everyday before school.

Pff fucking dislikers

aaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

When they are live and they play this song it is amazing I love it

poor quality this ages on youtube damn!!!

2006, omg. I was a kid. 14 years

Perfact just perfact :-D

soundwave 2014!!!

Why is this video garbage quality?

13yrs?!? oh the nostalgia...I was in high school when I bought this album...

This was recorded by actual vikings. You can tell because of the artifacting.

Poor Russians just wanted to protect their land from Norse raiders. This song still makes you feel they are the bad guys. :)

I need to hear at least one Amon Amarth track in The Vikings.... Come on History Channel..... !!!!!

I remember seeing this on Headbangers Ball back in like 2006. Good times.

The first 30 seconds of this video is how Vikings opened portals to other dimensions.

Brasileiro ai da um up

It is an amaizing sadly death metal song

This is great. Lord Zethrune....

I want this played at my funeral, plus a traditional viking funeral with a boat burned beside me.

2:00 gets me everytime

Dear Odin, we will stand our ground and fight together notorious and brave.

I am waiting in istanbul you amon amarth. It's time to meet on 29.07.2017.

ive been so far and so much compared to others ...so much lost so many lives hurt because of my actions. my greatest apologies especially to my father rory

I will miss you in my country USA but see you in WACKEN baby!

Hail, Amon Amarth
May Odin's gaze, Never be off you..
To Valhalla we go

I was driving while listening to this, my car is now a viking ship.

Would Pirating this song be considered Vikining it in this case?

He sees his own death. The omens show him. Yet he faces it already knowing his fate

there is high end in this video that is kind of irritating

IT IS ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was my first Amon Amarth song and needless to say I'm still hooked 🤘🏻

It's hard to nod and smile while head banging at the same time.

Anyone came here after the gif on Facebook lol

Dont care about quality. Total amazing!

This seems like a sampoo commercial

These guys are just as good live!!!

I like the part when he flips the table.

One of my favorite Amon Amarth songs.

More windmill !!

This song is for me :P

there is high end in this video that is kind of irritating

my house is now a vikings ship

(ノಠ益ಠ)ノ彡┻━┻

💪😍

toplu headbang'inizi yiyem hfhydgh

\,,/

I wish these guys were a little more Viking.

I really prefer wardruna over this guys, the so called viking metal sucks.....

Well now we know the inspiration for I whip my hair back and forth

synchronized windmill will live forever as a meme

Actually came here looking for the "hair tornado" comment. no succes :(

In mute, it looks like a shampoo commercial.

inb4 scene fags 

you will be here, who's hiding they want to be a Viking on an Amon Amarth video? :D

I cant be the only person who secretly wishes they were a Viking...

240p is true metal!

actually youtube is from 2005 '-'

WTF i always tought that youtube was made in 2007 and the video was uploaded in 2006 :o

umm.. no he isn't. In the video where he talks about the songs in "Surter Rising" he says and i quote, ".. as most of you know, I am an athiest." or at least something along those lines.

Well, it has been uploaded 7 years ago.

God and Jesus are the same according to the bible. He created an image of himself to sacrifice himself to protect humans from himself.

Hope so, beard is all I have left lol

either go watch his interviews and get educated or stop fucking trolling.

Johan Hegg is actually christian.

nailed to a cross? haha it was jesus and he wasn't a god, he was a pussy who thought different. So they nailed him on a cross. I'M NOT CHRISTIAN.

one of amon amarth's songs. i think the drummer wrote it

Johan Hegg (vocalist) is an athiest. i'm pretty sure they all are. Now where is your god?

Hair whips are so done. Beard whips are where it's at.

What are you talking about? :S

lol guiz.

Amon Amarth is playing, stfu about religion.

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻

*Epic Metal Table Flip Is Epic*
--> 1:31 <--

Odin=>Wotan
Thor=>Donner
Loki=>Loge
Siegfried=>Siegfried
Valkyrie=>Walkure

Just like Siegfried!

went to catholic school
apparently jesus god and the holy spirit are 3 different things but the same at the same time.
religion class was so fun -.-

"Here I lie.. on WET SAND!!
I Will NOT.. make it home!!
I clench my sword... in my hand
Say farewell to those I love!!"

Johan is making words so powerful.

It is true but bear in mind that many originally derisive monikers are later adopted by people to form a sense of rebellion hence why Neo-Pagans adore the term. Interesting Heathen is actually a native term from Germany and England that means something along the lines of 'lives beyond the heath of the church', heath being an Old English word for small village or settlement.

Raise a stone for all to see, runes talk to my memory

And still sounds and looks epic !

Paganism is the term used by Christians to describe any religion not Christian. It's like calling yourself as a barbarian.

1:38 - Fuck your table death, I'm a Viking.
