Sabaton changes

[last_candle]

who was the main song-writer in the band?

[STACH100]

It won't change much Sabaton is all about the vocals and singing along with the band.
Guitars are merely background.

[Stained Class]

Yeah, I heard that those 2 guys were the main guys in the band so the band's essence will still be there. Excited to watch that video.

[Michael D.]

Will be interesting.
They have a show scheduled here next month in St. Paul, MN. USA
Does this mean that they could be on “broad” for 2013 as a no repeat band because of new members? I wonder.

Well maybe now they can be on, since I'm guessing at some point they'll start to repeat bands

There are already a couple of repeats on Barge

Joakim and Par are the heart and soul of Sabaton for me - vocalist, and main songwriters.

Sabaton has never been about the guitars to me - its all about songs about war and Jaokim's awesome voice.

So yeah - not a deal-breaker in anyway for me.

Super excited about the upcoming album!!

I'm very excited too about the new album

[mooyagi]

Heard one new song. Kinda boring. Hopefully the rest of the album is good.

[sageoftruth]

I hope they get some good replacement backup vocals as well. One of Sabaton's major strengths in my opinion was knowing how to effectively use the backup vocals to compliment the rest of the music.

Due to all the band changes, they are having delays in obtaining visas for the new members so the first 3 shows of the North American tour are cancelled.

April 10 Tampa, FL
April 12 Houston, TX
April 13 Dallas, TX

I think they should've just recruited the guys from Van Canto. The group did such an awesome version of Primo Victoria. God, I'd love to see Van Canto play live.

VAN CANTO FOR 70K 2013!!!!!!!!!

Also, heard the Swedish version of Carolus Rex the other day. No idea what he was saying, but very awesome nonetheless. Can't wait for the new album.

[Stained Class]

I want Sabaton again too, Sabaton + Van Canto for 70k 2013.

Good call, have to say Van Canto are quite unique

Art of War was their most boring album they released.Coat of arms sounded a lot better but there was too much recycling of old material going on.I ahve a feeling the new album will be the same.A shame really.Also i wish they'd play more songs off Primo Victoria live.That was such a good album.

Now I've heard two songs off the new album and was very bored for both of them. Not a good sign.

New song:
Sabaton - En livstid i krig - Swedish lyrics (2012)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... 8jki4i4raQ

it'an ok song - but nothing more
kinda surprising that such a mediocre track gets chosen for the single

[WizardBeast]

Not sure how long the song will stay on youtube, but this cover is, well, not AA, but well, yeah...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c7Tx8k8Pkm0

checking it out at work regardless of whether or not i'm supposed to...LOL.

that song translates well to a more power-metally approach, it's not bad, but i'm still not a huge Sabaton fan LOL. i can recognize that they did a great job with the song though. at least the singer got more gruff with it.

[Stained Class]

I actually really like that AA cover. I honestly wish they had done clean vocals the whole way through. Peter is intense, but when he comes in it kindof changes the whole feel of the song. If I wanted to hear it death growled I'd just listen to the original. Still, not bad.

[mooyagi]

Interesting. Pales in comparison to the original but I kinda like it

[WizardBeast]

:lol: Interesting. Pales in comparison to the original but I kinda like it

yeah it's not bad. wonder if they were trying to hard, i.e. the gruff vox. i dunno. still they did a decent treatment of the song.

I've always wanted to hear a lounge music version of the song. Someone's gotta do that now.

I didnt mind it at all. It definitely was odd to me at first and the entire time I was wondering where Peter was. Then I heard his highs at the end

Hate to say it, but from what ive heard so far this is the best song. The couple songs ive heard so far have not impressed me one bit.

Two Sabatons are better than one :)
