just fyi Amon Amarth isn't Viking Metal, at least, not in musical style (lyrics is another matter of course)
It looks like the only Folk/Viking Metal bands touring the US this year are Enslaved and Vreid/Kampfar (Vreid not really being Viking Metal but being born of a Viking Metal band). Check to see if they come within a reasonable distance of you.

I'm looking to write an article for one of the websites I work for about going to a viking metal concert. The problem is that I really don't know much about the subgenre (that's kind of the point of the article), and as such I'm not terribly familiar with the bands who play it.
My quick internet searches have mostly shown European bands, which are simply out of my price range. Basically, I need an American band to write about and go see, or at least a band that's playing in America sometime in the relatively near future. Can anyone recommend someone to me?
Some kind of festival would be even more fantastic!
