Amon Amarth Release Heidrun EP Featuring Vocals from an Actual Goat: Stream
The post Amon Amarth Release Heidrun EP Featuring Vocals from an Actual Goat: Stream appeared first on Consequence.
Swedish Viking metal veterans Amon Amarth have released a new music video for “Heidrun” (“goat” in Norse mythology), a song that appears on their latest studio album, The Great Heathen Army. Additionally, they’ve unveiled the four-song Heidrun EP featuring three versions of the tune, including a “goat remix” with actual goat vocals.
Frontman Johan Hegg explained the mythological story behind “Heidrun” in a press release, stating, “Heidrun is an interesting mythological character, it’s a goat that stands on the roof of Valhalla eating the leaf of the big tree Lärad.”
He continued, “The milk that she gives is the honey/mead that the warriors in Valhalla drink each night. The lyrics themselves are both about Vikings travelling the world but also metaphorically what it is to be a touring musician.”
Amon Amarth recently kicked off US tour with Ghost. Find a recap and photo gallery of the opening night here, and pick up tickets here.
