Comprising three discs and clocking in at well over seven hours in length, "Wrath Of The Norsmen" is not so much a "sneak peek" into the Norse-mythology-soaked world of AMON AMARTH as it is a full-on day camp. Here the Vikings offer us not one, but five complete European shows (mostly shot in Germany), including appearances at the 2005 Summer Breeze festival, Metal Blade's own Rrroooaaarrr fest of the same year, Wacken '04, and the "Fate Of Norns" release party at Rockfabrik also in '04. The true highlight of the collection however is a special, intended-for-DVD extended live performance captured in Cologne in '05 wherein the band play for close to two hours with a full stage show including mock Viking battles, lights and pyro, and 1000 slavering German fans screaming for more, more, MORE!!!
