Sabaton have released a new digital single, “The Lost Battalion”, available for purchase at here. The track is the first single from the band’s upcoming album The Last Stand. A lyric video for the song can be found below.

The story behind the lyrics: “The Lost Battalion” is the name given to nine companies of the United States’ 77th Division during the battle of the Argonne in 1918. Even though these 550-575 brave men were completely surrounded by the German Army and subjected to friendly artillery fire, they kept on fighting for a week until they were relieved. Of the over 500-plus soldiers who entered the Argonne Forest, only 194 walked out unscathed. The rest were killed, missing, captured, or wounded.
