With their new album, The Great War, Swedish heavy metal heroes, Sabaton, have reached fantastic chart results all over the world, including the #1 top position in Germany and Switzerland, as well as their home country Sweden.

”All these fantastic numbers show a few things! First that we still can write songs that you guys want to hear! But more important that you are the best fans in the world and that metal is stronger than any other genre. We really look forward to tour with this album and perform many new songs all over the world", comments Pär Sundström.
