Sweden’s Viking metal legends Amon Amarth have released their thunderous new single “We Rule The Waves” along with an epic video. The track marks the band’s first new music in years, surging forward with galloping riffs, towering melodies, and the fierce energy that defines their sound. Produced by Grammy-nominated Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Arch Enemy, The Black Dahlia Murder, Katatonia), it stands as a monumental return — a sonic voyage built from salt, steel, and spirit.
The video for “We Rule The Waves” was filmed in Riga, Latvia, continuing Amon Amarth’s ongoing collaboration with director Pavel Trebukhin of Tre Film, who previously helmed the band’s videos for “The Great Heathen Army,” “Heidrun,” and “Saxons & Vikings.”
In their statement, the band describes “We Rule The Waves” as a celebration of unity, courage, and purpose. “It is our tribute to the spirit of freedom, brotherhood, and the will to conquer — not just lands, but your own limitations. It’s about standing tall with your clan, facing the storm head-on, and carving your mark into the world like a Viking longship through blackened seas.”
With “We Rule The Waves,” Amon Amarth continues to forge their legacy as modern keepers of Norse myth and might, blending storytelling, power, and melody into a battle cry that calls fans to raise their horns high once more.
