""Three bands," Amon Amarth say. "One night. The strong will scream. The weak will fall. Limbs will be lost. We will crush skulls beneath our boots and tear the halls down stone by stone. This is not a concert. It is a reckoning. If you survive... perhaps the gods have other plans for you.""
""We have to celebrate our 20th anniversary. And what a killer way to do it, with Amon Amarth and Castle Rat, who embody theatrical heavy metal. We're going to entertain you as hard as we possibly can with the power of heavy metal in many kinds of ways, and many different iterations - from Viking battleships to Castle Rat to Dethklok with our music and fast-paced, insane animation. We challenge ourselves to get in as much material without wearing out our welcome. We also get to be funny.""
""On the heels of the Vernal Equinox, our adjacent universes shall align as we bring .*.The Realm.*. of Castle Rat into battle alongside venerable vikings, Amon Amarth, and Metalocalypse metal-masters, Dethklok!," Castle Rat's The Rat Queen adds. "Join us, as we seek to expand and defend .*.The Realm.*. from our arch nemesis: Death, Herself - The Rat Reaperess!""
Amon Amarth and Dethklok will co-headline a North American tour called "The Amonklok Conquest" in April and May, with NYC medieval fantasy heavy metal band Castle Rat opening. The itinerary includes an April 28 Brooklyn Paramount date and dates beginning April 15 in Phoenix. Tickets go on sale Friday, December 12 at 10 AM local, with presales starting December 9 at 11 AM local. Dethklok will celebrate its 20th anniversary with theatrical performances combining music, animation, and staged elements. Amon Amarth frames the shows as an intense, theatrical reckoning for attendees.
