Amon Amarth are currently preparing to play three shows in England with special guests Arch Enemy and Hypocrisy.

The concerts in Birmingham, Manchester and London later this month have been lined up in support of their latest studio album Berserker.

And today, it’s been revealed that fans will be able to get inked with a range of Amon Amarth-designed tattoos ahead of the headline shows – as the band are bringing a pop-up tattoo studio with them on the road in conjunction with Old Sarum Tattoo.

The band say: “Prepare for the feasting halls before the show. For the first time on UK soil we are bringing the official Amon Amarth Tattoo Shop! 

“Sacrifice your skin with an invasion tattoo, bring your clan and drinking horns to toast the gods. All feasting halls open at 12noon, your place in Valhalla awaits!”

To mark the announcement, Amon Amarth have shared some of the designs which can be found below.

The dates in England are part of a wider European tour, which will get underway in Vienna on November 14.
