Amon Amarth: ‘The Crusher’ and ‘Versus The World’ LP re-issues now available via Metal Blade Records
Amon Amarth has a long history with Metal Blade Records, that goes back to 1998 when they released their debut album, Once Sent From The Golden Hall. That album, along with 1999’s The Avenger, were the first two Amon Amarth records that received the Metal Blade “Originals”-treatment this past January. On May 19th, the next two albums in the band’s catalog – The Crusher (2001) and Versus The World (2002) – will also be re-issued on vinyl as Metal Blade “Originals”, featuring 400g heavy cardboard spine sleeves (inside out print), 60x60cm two-sided artwork posters and 250g inserts.
