Additional Info: Tracks Reviews
Brutal..probably their best album. (5 stars)
This is a great album from start to finish..the assault starts at track 1 and never lets up. Highly recommended! |  | | | Wow words defy me. (5 stars)
Having heard a lot of metal this album is amazing. I wish I could call it a metal masterpiece but I ran into a lot of people who find something is missing with the album so blah I can never find what it is, imo it's perfect. This is Amon Amarth's heaviest CD so if your looking for something heavy this is the album to go to. The guitars are CRUSHING, the vocals are TEETHBREAKING, and the lyrics are FIERCE and all about vikings! Right from the start of the album the guitars explode and the vocalist lets off a loud growl that you just can't help but love it's amazing. In fact the song Releasing Surtur's Fire is all about the battle of Ragnaroch where every man in the world dies in the end just by the strike of a single hammer.
I can't find a single wrong with this album but a few other complaints I hear about the album is that it's: Boring, too straightforward, and it'sweaker than all of Amon Amarth's albums
I seriously can't figure out what these complaints mean imo it's as exciting and brutal as heck. I've heard stuff off of every Amon Amarth album and imo this album is by far the best. So if your welling to take a risk and see if you like this album or not give it a shot, the risk might be well worth it. | | | | A metal masterpiece, period (5 stars)
Amon Amarth are among the most technically skilled metal musicians in the known universe. That being said, this album, in my opinion, is Amon Amarth's best to date. That is saying a lot. 'Masters of War' and 'Bastards of a Lying Breed' make The Crusher worth your time.
Viking metal is quite a complex breed of metal. When executed well it shames many other types of music, since so much goes into each and every song. This album belongs in any true metal head's collection. It puts to shame many simpler, technically inferior more well known bands. Muscially, Amon Amarth is superior to many bands out there. You can tell how much work goes into each and every song.
There is not one bad song on this album. When people ask me what my favorite album is, my usual answer is 'The Crusher' by Amon Amarth. | | | | frickin amazing!! (5 stars)
This cd is brutal as hell!!! Very good cd and great live band. | | | | Every kind of genre mix in just one album... (5 stars)
Amon amarth plays all kinds of music which means, you'll find something you either love and be obsses with...From a little blackmetal feel to viking metal to straight melodic deathmetal and more? You'll fall in love with amon amarth's music! The minute i began listining to amon amarth's "crusher" i thought to myself... Masterpiece? Yes. I love am and i always been a fan, because their one talented band! I recommend!! | | | |
