Amon Amarth are asking fans to submit footage of them raising their ‘rock horns’ for an upcoming music video.

The viking metal outfit wants fans to film themselves giving the traditional metal salute and the best ones will feature in the promo for the track Raise Your Horns, which features on current album Jomsviking.

Amon Amarth say: “The video will include live clips of the band performing in multiple countries, plus you – the fans – raising your horns to Amon Amarth.

“Do you have a wall plastered with Amon Amarth and other metal posters? Did you just attend a live show or are going to one soon? Send us clips of you and your friends raising your horns to the band for a chance to be included in the video.”

Clips can be emailed to raiseyourhornsvideo@gmail.com or uploaded to YouTube using the hashtag #RaiseYourHorns in the title. The video is tentatively set for release in June, with the deadline for clips set at May 27.

Amon Amarth are on the road in support of Jomsviking.
