SABATON Receive Gold And Platinum Awards For The Last Stand And Heroes Albums; Photo

Sweden’s Sabaton is currently touring the world in support of their latest studio record, The Last Stand, The band was recently honored with new plaques for their impressive album sales: The Last Stand achieved Gold in the band's homeland Sweden and in Poland. The previous studio album, Heroes, was Platinum-certified in Sweden. On March 4th, the band had already been honored with golden plaques for The Last Stand's sales in the Czech Republic at Tipsport Arena, Prague.

Bass player Pär Sundström commented: "This is a proof of two things, first that we are still able to make music that fans wanna listen to and second that we have fantastic fans who really care. Sure, the current tour is called The Last Tour, but as long as it is going like this we'll be going strong for a long time."

Sabaton will kick off the North American leg of The Last Tour headlining trek in April. The band will be joined by symphonic metal group Leaves’ Eyes and heavy power metal onslaught/labelmates Battle Beast.
