Falun, Sweden (1999 – present)
Where did it start? And where do we go from here?
Digging deep will let you discover that Sabaton were formed back in 1999 in Falun, Sweden and worked hard with demos and small club shows just like any other band.
You will also find that an album was recorded in 2002 bearing the name of Fist for Fight on an independent label in Italy but was never released.
What is interesting is not to hear what you already heard from thousands of other bands but to hear the story of a successful band that paid the high price and sacrificed it all for their dreams. So we take a leap in history.
In 2004 the band began to be quite angry about their trouble to get an album out on the market but decided to forget about the past and started all over again. A new demo was recorded bearing the title of Panzer Battalion. At this point Sabaton had become much better songwriters and the quality of the songs was a lot higher than before which of course gave result.
Several labels immediately contacted Sabaton but after stranded negotiations Sabaton decided to record an album without any help from any label. Primo Victoria was recorded and was fully paid by the band members themselves. With this masterpiece in their hands the band now returned to some labels and the bidding started. Winner was the Swedish label Black Lodge who gave a fair offer and a deal was made.

Penemunde is a perfect theme for a Rise of Evil like mood of a track. And getting a track about the Red Army's Marines couldve been neat. They we in hell of a situations during the early period of the war and we feared by Germans for their high morale and being just plain fierce fighters.

I thought the same, actually. The only themes that are not meh or done to death are probably the ones from Coat of Arms and Saboteurs.

Apart from Midway. No track seem to have a theme id be very intherested in. Making a track simply about Wehrmacht and about exactly one man(see White Death) seems rather misplaced. Bleh...there are so many 20 century events that could serve as great coverage yet they havent made up in that rather shallow list. How unfortunate.

doh, no song for Bulgaria :/ I think after the release of the album Poland is going to become the 2nd homeland of Sabaton :X

Warsaw uprising AND non-British RAF personnel in the Battle of England? Yup, Poland will probably be bowing down before Sabaton 24/7 when this is released.

From the samples I judge it will go more in the direction of Art of War (more epic sound, more keyboards).
