Sabaton

[Diesel 11]

LC already mentioned this in the replies thread, but here's the first Sabaton History video, discussing the backstory behind their classic "40:1", including the Battle of Wizna itself and how Sabaton became monsters in Poland. Needless to say, it's badass. Take a look:

Whats it about?

 

[LooseCannon]

Not sure.

 

[KidInTheDark666]

Whats it about?

Wars and history.

 

[Black Wizard]

Should we expect the events referred to in the trailer to be themes for new songs, or is it likely to be solely about WWI?

Finally, another 28 minutes of new Sabaton music!

Maybe they will mix them together. Like the Spanish Armada weighs in at Gallipoli

Wait, you mean that didn't actually happen?

Sabaton have already done songs about Gallipoli and Paschendale. I hope they don't rehash those ideas. That would surpass Sabaton's current levels of recycling.

Hold on, I'll check Wikipedia....

The press release states that it will be a full concept album, with the songs only relating to WWI.

 

[Perun]

I think it's a bold step for Sabaton, to have an album all about war.

 

[Black Wizard]

The press release states that it will be a full concept album, with the songs only relating to WWI.

They should be more ambitious and do a double album with a second disc about WWII.

 

[Diesel 11]

Oh hell yes.

I'll be honest though, to me they hit the peak when they rhymed "culture" with "vulture". I just can't see them surpassing this.
