What can I say about Amon Amarth that hasn't already been said? Probably nothing considering the depth, or lack thereof, of my experience with their music. I suspect I discovered them alongside many other metal fans with 2006's With Oden on Our Side. Yes, I realize that many out there have been with them since their 1996 debut or even earlier, but that 2006 album was rather explosive and thrust them onto a larger stage, or at least that is what it seemed like to me.
Netflix'ns is a series of review shorts of films, new and old, seen on Netflix, be it DVD or streaming. For better or worse, I sat through these films and have lived to tell the tale. These are not so much reviews as just comments on the film watched. Some will be first time views, others will be revisits. This is a work in progress.
There are some bands that in order to be a fan, you have to be slightly masochistic. Some bands push the boundaries of extreme, or brutality, and in some cares sheer listenability. It is a fact that some bands take a lot of work to like and before embarking on such a quest you must think long and hard on whether or not the return on the investment of your time is something you really want to undertake.
