[[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.

* [[A Good Name for a Rock Band]]: Their name is a reference to ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'', although most of their songs are about vikings and stuff rather than Tolkien-influenced [[Heavy Mithril]].
