    Elliott Fullam of Little Punk People spoke with Johan Hegg of AMON AMARTH on his tour bus at the Prudential Center in NJ before their show with Megadeth, Suicidal Tendencies & Metal Church. They talk about their fear of heights, which singers he'd pick to become a heavy metal god, vikings, beer, the first metal records he bought and much more in this light-hearted interview. These guys are a must-see band! Their show was incredible!!!

      It's funny how these "intimidating" guys are always the nicest. You see them on stage or you see such guys on the street and it's like, oh no, vikings, bikers, whatever, don't look at them. But then you start talking to them and they are really friendly and funny people. Goes to show, don't judge people by their looks. And I would definitely have a beer with Johan.

    This is one of the very best interviews I've seen in a long time! Why? Because the interviewer asks his questions, shuts the hell up while he gets the answer, and brings some good, funny and SHORT comments, and is polite, positive and nice!
    Also, Johan Hegg seems like a very nice guy, down to earth, and with a great sense of humor. All in all, GOLD!!! \m/

    I like the mix of fairly standard questions like "what's your favourite song to play on the latest record" as well as some unusual questions that normal interviewers probably wouldn't think to ask. It does help that Johan seems like a normal guy who just happens to play in a fairly big band. He's not got that "I'm a rockstar" vibe about him whatsoever.

    Subscribed. This interview is so fantastic. Maybe we need more kids to do entertainment interviews. Honest, No pretense. And questions out of the blue that are as intruiging as surprising (in an excellent way), Also, now checking out this band. I love these guys as people, from what I have seen.

    This is a really cool video. Amon Amarth is my favorite band. Johann Hegg is pretty awesome.
