We take such stories and our music very seriously, only not ourselves. Joakim Brodén: "You don't believe a story like that when you hear it! It's like a comic strip, incomprehensible how someone can be so indestructible. We haven't done that kind of gallop since " Coat of Arms". It's so over the top and crazy that it's hard to believe it's true. If you Google it, it's almost like Monty Python making a joke about a soldier. Joakim Brodén: "If you read the story, it's almost funny. We were really captured by the life of this interesting character who “Frankly enjoyed the war…”." Pär Sundström: "The story of Sir Adrian Carton De Wiart represents Sabaton in many ways, but especially because he never gave up in spite of what was thrown against him. The line "Born a soldier, enjoyed the war" is a direct reference to Carton De Wiart's famous quote describing his experiences in the First World War: " Frankly I had enjoyed the war.".

The following year's Carolus Rex hit number one in Sweden and Poland, but it was the last for that lineup 2014's Heroes featured new guitarists Chris Rörland and Thobbe Englund plus new drummer Hannes van Dahl alongside the stalwarts Brodén and Sundström. The band became increasingly successful across Europe, witnessed on 2011's live album, World War Live: Battle of the Baltic Sea, featuring a dozen tracks and ten different countries. It also opened the floodgates for a slew of popular singles and battle metal LPs to follow, including 2006's Attero Dominatus, 2008's The Art of War, and 2010's Coat of Arms, all of them bursting at the seams with historic and mythical chronicles of battle set to anthemic power metal. Tired of waiting, the members of Sabaton (now including new drummer Daniel Mullback), once again took matters into their own hands, and financed the recording of another album, Primo Victoria, which was officially released in 2005 by the Black Lodge label.

Originally founded in 1999 and comprised of Joakim Brodén (vocals and keyboards), Rickard Sundén (guitar), Oskar Montelius (guitar), Daniel Myhr (keyboards, beginning in 2006), Pär Sundström (bass), and Richard Larsson (drums), the enterprising group quickly produced two demo tapes that were later released in a limited edition as Fist for Fight in 2002.īut after inking a deal with Italian label Underground Symphony, Sabaton saw their first would-be official album, Metalizer, inexplicably held out of the marketplace for a full two years (it, too, belatedly reached the public in 2007). Swedish band Sabaton have been a major force in the power metal field since the mid-2000s, but had to battle through significant difficulties to get there, which may explain their eventual creative obsession with everything war-related.
