Amon Amarth at the HOB Sunset Strip



Suffice to say, I was very highly impressed by Amon Amarth in concert. You can read my official writeup of the band's April 24th appearance at the HOB Sunset Strip here, but I would like to comment upon the band's impressive stage show, one only rivaled by, perhaps, Watain in a small to medium sized venue. Like Watain, Amon Amarth have theatrical motifs, and are able to maximize their impact very effectively on a small stage.

damn! Putting those press passes to use for those front row pics or did you just camp out and get right against the rail?

I got some video footage from the show also...but, from the back of the venue =/

Such a fun show! Yeah, I had a press pass. When we were told to move away from the stage after the third song, I just hung out right at the left (facing stage) corner.
