AMON AMARTH ADDED TO "UNHOLY ALLIANCE TOUR, CHAPTER III" UK/EURO TREK

Renowed Swedish death metal band AMON
AMARTH has been added to the "Unholy Alliance Tour, Chapter III" lineup,
which features Slayer, Trivium, and Mastodon.

Since 1992, Amon Amarth - Johan Hegg/vocals, Olavi Mikkonen/guitar,
Johan Soderberg/guitar, Ted Lundstrom/bass, and Fredrik Andersson/drums
- has managed to establish themselves as one of Europe's top death metal
acts.  What has set the band apart from the rest of the scene is their
use of Viking mythology and imagery in their lyrics and artwork, as well
as their talent for writing epic, memorable melodies, which underline
their solemn yet barbaric approach to heavy music.  The band's seventh
studio album, as yet untitled, is due out this Fall on Metal Blade
Records.

The UK/Euro run kicks off in Manchester, England on October 27 and will
play nearly two dozen shows over a four-week period.  This is the third
installment of what has been hailed as "the heaviest, darkest tour of
the year."  With more dates to be announced, the initial itinerary for
the European "Unholy Alliance Tour, Chapter III" is below:
