Sabaton always make me laugh a little. Hearing that dude sing “The Final Solution” with a strong accent and in such a enthusiastic tone (considering it’s a song about killing jews, and I know it’s meant to do so in a critical manner, but still)… it always gets me.

Thanks for the kind words. Yet to catch the band live myself, but hopefully the next time they come over.

As for this being better than ‘The Art of War’, in my opinion, that’s not the case. TAoW is an absolute beast that really blitzkriegs you into submission, without mercy. So many great songs, one after another, on that album that it’s not even funny.

Mikko, thnx for the review! I laughed out loud, several times. Especially the remark about cheaters in first person shooters!
I’m definately getting this album. Gonna see Sabaton on Graspop(.be) and in Holland at the end of the year.

Prima victoria!

Huh. This is better than Art of War by a mile, IMHO. Maybe I missed something? At any rate, their previous ones are better still.

Ah, one of those cases. Have to disagree with you there Cynny, the guy’s voice is really part of the charm for me. Something to do with the teutonic pronunciation I suppose. Not that it’s any different, you still might want to check the previous album out. Just in case.

It’s strange, the vocalist is talented yet something about his voice just rubs me the wrong way. Oh well, no point in dwelling on it. I’m off to listen to some Powerwolf for a similar band with a vocalist that I can actually enjoy.
