Amon Amarth will release The Pursuit of Vikings: 25 Years In The Eye of the Storm, a retrospective documentary on Nov. 16. To coincide with the release, the band is also offering live albums and DVDs from two different sets they played at 2017’s Summer Breeze Festival in Dinkelsbuhl, Germany. Watch the trailer for the documentary above and see the extensive tracklist for the effort below. 

The Pursuit of Vikings: 25 Years in the Eye of the Storm features live concerts, behind-the-scenes footage and interviews with the band. It highlights the quintet’s history and the fans who followed them over the years.

Amon Amarth performed two different shows at the Summer Breeze Festival in Germany in 2017. The band did a “secret” set focusing on older material and later, a headlining concert on the main stage with full production, including a giant sea serpent and a lot of fire.

Guitarist Olavi Mikkonen explains the mindset of the band going into the two different shows, “For the first night, we wanted to write a set list that the fans would enjoy by wholly diving into our back catalog but also keeping it interesting.” He adds, “Putting the two shows together also made us realize that we have a lot of songs to chose from.”

The Pursuit of Vikings: 25 Years in the Eye of the Storm will be released on Nov. 16. The effort is available in a variety of different bundles including: a CD, DVD pack, a special edition with hardcover book with six discs (three DVDs, two CDs and one Blu-ray), a transparent orange vinyl release (limited to 500 copies), clear with black splatter vinyl (limited to 250 copies) and transparent yellow with orange marble vinyl (limited to 250 copies). Fans can pre-order the film and accompanying live concerts here.
