'The Avenger' is Amon Amarth's second album for Metal Blade, and it features new guitarist Johan S derberg in place of the departed Anders Hansson.
It's not dissimilar to 'Once Sent from the Golden Hall' - basic Scandinavian death/black metal, somewhere in between the predominant flavors of the Norwegian and Swedish scenes, mixing lightning-quick rhythms and noisy guitar textures with deep, growling grooves.
