Sabaton’s tenth album, The War To End All Wars, is now available via Nuclear Blast Records. The new masterpiece from the Swedish metal force is determined to shake the world in its foundations, introducing a new era in the band's remarkable career.

The band states: "With our last album, The Great War, we found that we had only scratched the surface in terms of the powerful stories of courage and bravery and also the horrors that took place during the first World War. Fans would contact us and tell us these amazing stories from World War One that none of us had ever heard of before. Incredible, human tales like the British and German soldiers who put down their weapons on Christmas Eve in 1914 to share a moment of peace and reconciliation, right there on the battlefield; or the brave soldiers who fought in the White War, some 12,000 feet up in the Alps, who froze to death and whose bodies remain under the snow to this day. These are magnificent stories about everyday people who were willing to give their lives for something that was bigger than themselves. Marrying these true tales to loud, bruising, bone tingling heavy metal? Adding a second chapter to one the most frightening and liberating times in history? Why wouldn’t we make this album?"

To celebrate the release, Sabaton releases a video for their fourth single, "Race To The Sea". 'Race To The Sea' is a song about the decision from Albert of Belgium during WW1 to flood the last part of Belgium and with the help of water prevent all of Belgium to fall into German hands.

Special guests Apocalyptica and support from Amaranthe

Swedish heavy metal heroes SABATON have announced their first ever UK arena headliner as part of ‘THE GREAT TOUR’. Hitting the road to support their new album ‘The Great War’ which comes out July 19th via Nuclear Blast, the band will play 64 shows in 19 countries, including an exclusive UK show with special guests APOCALYPTICA and support from AMARANTHE at the world famous OVO Arena Wembley in London on Saturday 8th February 2020.

“Our journey in UK has been long and full of people who did not believe in us.

Thanks to fantastic fans we have proven over the years that our music will work in UK and now finally we are in the venue where we can use our full production and give all our fans in UK the great show you have been waiting for.” announces Pär Sundstöm and adds: "You know by now how much we care about the bands we choose to bring with us on tour, this is no exception. AMARANTHE is a rising star on the metal sky bringing such energy and passion rarely seen on stage and will open the evening. After that comes the big surprise for a lot of people who are not familiar with the cello rock band APOCALYPTICA, but trust us that their emotional show will definitively create magic in the arenas.

Finally what we are bringing, except for our biggest touring production we ever did… Is a promise to deliver a show that you never could imagine and the biggest announcement regarding this tour is still to come."

I confess, I was looking forward to seeing some kind of collaboration between Sabaton and The Hu (as they did with both Amaranthe and Apocalyptica the last time they played the UK), but the mind boggles as to what they’re going to get up to with Babymetal! Joakim did guest on one of their songs , so maybe we’ll see him take to the stage a set early? I’ve not seen the J-Metal band live before so I’m looking forward to it.

Anyway, that’s just my opinion. The official PR statement follows…

Swedish metal heroes Sabaton have revealed their special guests for the UK and European leg of their upcoming Tour To End All Tours. Japanese dance metal sensation Babymetal will appear as very special guests, marking their first international shows in over three years. Finnish Eurovision winners Lordi will open all shows.

“We are extremely happy to welcome Babymetal to our already much anticipated tour in Europe 2023,” says bass player Pär Sundström. “The energy and power of this band will for sure make each night something special.”

“If there ever was a band that would break all the rules, it’s Babymetal with the power and precision to deliver a full on heavy metal show!” echoes frontman Joakim Brodén. “It’s not our first rodeo together, expect nothing but excellence from Babymetal!”

Joakim participated as a guest on “Oh! Majinai (feat. Joakim Brodén)” on Babymetal’s third album Metal Galaxy released October 11th, 2018. He also made a guest appearance at Babymetal’s headline show in October 2018, at Japan’s extra show Dark Night Carnival.

Sabaton is a Power Metal band from Falun, Sweden that have a strong lyrical fixation on war history and the nature of battle. Though the group formed in 1999, it was not until the mid 2000s that the group broke out of their cult status to reach a wider audience.

Though the band did not put out their debut album until 2005 they began recording as early as 1999. Sabaton’s recording sessions took place in The Abyss studio where noteworthy doom metal bands like Children of Bodom, Overkill and, Dispatched have recorded. The band’s recordings attracted a couple of record labels, one of them being the Italian label, Underground Symphony. This label issued the band’s first commercially distributed album, which was the 1999-2000 compilation, “Fist for Fight”. The album was largely seen as a promotional tool as it was released with the intent to get people excited about the band’s upcoming albums.

Sabaton’s first official LP was supposed to be their 2002 recorded album “[[]]”; however, it was shelved for 2 years and eventually discarded. The band finally put out their second album and first commercially released LP entitled “Primo Victoria”. The band signed on with the label Black Lodge for this release and would go on to put out their next album “Attero Dominatus” through this label. At this time the group recruited keyboardist Daniel Myhr for the band. This allowed the group’s previous keyboardist/singer, Joakin Broden, to take full reign over vocals.

In 2007 Sabaton released “Metalizer”, which was an accumulation of their early demo recordings and their previously unearthed debut album. The band’s follow up record was based on the book “The Art of War” by the Chinese military leader Sun Tzu. The group was increasingly getting more recognition and by 2009 they were playing festivals such as Atlanta’s ProgPowerUSA and Bloodstock ’09 in Derby. They also toured throughout Europe during this time, which included a 18 show stint in the UK supporting DragonForce. The band’s next album “Coat of Arms” came out on 2 October 2010 and peaked at No. 2 on the Swedish Albums Chart. It’s lyrics were heavily inspired by World War II and its closing track “Metal Ripper” was an instrumental piece paying tribute to a long list of the band’s musical influences.

The band experienced a crucial line-up change in 2012, with four members leaving, making singer Broden and bass player Sundström the only remaining members. The newly comprised band released “Carolus Rex” in 2012 and went on a large scale North American tour in the Spring of 2014.

Shortly afterwards Sabaton put out their commercially successful album “Heroes”, which debuted at No.1 on the Swedish Album Charts. The group has built a substantive reputation for themselves in the metal community, particularly one in their homeland in which they host their own festival. In addition to touring extensively around the globe the band also has an annual cruise called ‘Sabaton Cruise’ that embarks every November.

Live reviews

I attended Sabaton’s concert in the UK in 2023. The concert was amazing. The drummer (Hannes) and guitarists (Tommy, Chris, Pär) are all extremely talented. I also love Joakim’s voice. I think that Sabaton are actually even better in person!

Sabaton are very sweet people who really care about their fans and know how to interact well with their audience. The audience was encouraged to join in on songs like The Red Baron and Swedish Pagans. The talks in between songs by band members were interesting, well-humoured and friendly. They also took feedback from data they had previously collected from fans who wanted them to play older and faster songs so they played Into The Fire.

The showmanship was amazing. There were coloured lights and confetti, fire and smoke and of course the tank that Hannes sits on to play the drums. The screen behind the band made it easier to see the band but also showed cool visualisers for some songs. During some songs there were even people on stage playing some of the people from the songs, for example, there was a guy in a red plane for The Red Baron and a guy playing a scientist (Fritz Haber) for Father. For Christmas Truce everyone turned their phone lights on and it was beautiful.

When they went off the stage, there was still a lot of hype and everyone shouted “SABATON! SABATON!” and their encore was 3 songs but after that Man Of War played through the speakers when Sabaton were done performing. There was also a really amazing breakdown after the performance when they were saying goodnight before Man Of War started playing through the speakers.

Also, Sabaton have earplugs as part of their merch for only £10. They are very high quality and they made the concert not sound too loud but at the same time I could hear everything easily and the audio quality was fantastic. Also, the earplugs are very comfortable. They are also washable and reusable.

I would absolutely love to see Sabaton live again and I would highly recommend their concert for any other fans!

"If you have ever been to a Sabaton concert you know you are going to rock out. Based out of Falun, Sweden, Sabaton is a power metal band who gets their audience energetic right from the start. Everyone was crowded in the front by the stage so we could get as close to the action as I wanted. I didn’t mind being packed tightly with my fellow concert goers as we danced and head-banged our way through each song. Being close to the front I was able to experience the thrill of the pyrotechnics used by Sabaton. The lights and fireworks are synced perfectly with the flow of their songs. \tMost of the lyrics of Sabaton’s are based on war and battle. Though they have a definite hard rock sound Joakim Broden has a very lyrical sound to his voice. As Chris Rorland and Thobbe Englund rock out on their guitars Broden’s lyrics are very fluid and melodic in many songs. The look of the band also adds to the experience. With many of them possessing a head-banger’s dream of long locks, they show you how to rock out. If you have never been into head-banging before, they will make you want to try it! The concert is non-stop rock and when it is over you will leave wanting to see them again. The energy from the band and crowd is unbeatable. One of the best metal concerts of all time!"

There is a chorus of metal hungry attendees engaged in conversation about the support acts this evening as the lights begin to fade out gradually, to the sounds of orchestral swells filling the speakers and of course this huge room. The audience’s response is that of a predominantly male cheer as if they’re about to go to battle.

On stage, appears a band from Sweden called Sabaton who kick off the evening with the sound of a very distorted guitar playing the opening bars of “No Bullets Fly” which is taken from their most recent album, “No Bullets Fly”. The reaction is a mixture of more battle cries with the movements of a circle pit beginning to take shape, sweeping people from the sidelines into it gradually getting bigger – all of which is completely encouraged by vocalist, Jaokim Broden.

Sabaton have a whole lot of material to get through this evening as they fill this set only with the very best material from their career that has, despite being fifteen years long, seen seven studio albums.

Heroes on tour, with relative dates, were announced by Sabaton and as soon I saw a concert in Milan I managed a couple of friends to come with me and we booked the tickets right away. It was an event that we couldn't miss.

The tickets came fast, February unfortunately not.

Once we were in Milan we went to Alcatraz, were Sabaton, Delain and Battle Beast played. We didn't know the building but in the end the location was very cool.

What about the concert? Simply awesome! Battle Beast started the event with power, turning on the audience. Than Delain played. When it was Sabaton's turn the crowd drove crazy.

Sabaton played with power and passion. Sound very good and the show between one song and the other very entertainfull. The big tank on stage with the drums on it fantastic idea.

Hope to have them again in Italy and really looking forwards to the next concert.

I recommend this band, no matter where they play.

This was a very nice show! I knew neither of the two acts playing before Sabaton, but they opened up well! The venue is one of the larger ones in the Netherlands, and it was completely packed with people!

First up: Twilight Force had a lot of energy and were clearly having a lot of fun on stage, with a bunch of antics while still playing good music. Their fantasy speedmetal was a nice way to get in the mood.

Next up was Accept. They had quite a large large scenery built up on stage, which was impressive and fit their more serious heavy metal.

Sabaton was a crowd success from start to finish. I don't think the audience skipped a single song for singing along! The stage was twice as large as Accept (they removed the back wall for this) and looked impressive. The band played really well and importantly played a lot of classics as well as some newer songs.

If they are in the Netherlands again, I'm definitely going again!

A great bill with Kreator opening up for Sabaton. And Kreator absolutely killed it. Great live show. The sound was fantastic and the band was tight and on point throughout. The crowd was amped, very fired up from the first note to the last. A violent pit moshed in front of the band in the strong metal venue. Kreator, one of the Teutonic Big 4, are a must see. Great live metal band.

Sabaton isn't really my style of metal, but the crowd loved them and they put on a very strong show. Very interactive with the audience, and there is plenty of fist pumping, clapping along, and singing along to the chorus.

The 2 bands together made for an awesome show.

Yesterday, I had the chance to experience Sabaton live, for the second time! First, I saw them two years ago on the festival Rock in Vienna. It was a great performance!

And yesterday, they surprised me again. It was unbelievable! The equipment was very authentical, the huge panzer in Front of the drums and the other one on the left hand side of the stage shot up. Additionally, they prepared a great fire show!

Furthermore, the audience never stopped jumping and singing, the atmosphere was awesome.

They made really funny jokes and the all time joke "noch ein Bier" must not lack.

Overall, it was a fantastic concert!

Honestly one of the best shows I've ever been to. Both Sabaton and Hammerfall killed it. Insane energy all night, with a constant pit all night long and crowdsurfers too.

Both bands sounded great live, and played a perfect mix of old and new songs. Venue was pretty solid too. A little old, but the well-sloped floor with great visibility and amazing sound made it all worth it.

Enjoyed every minute of the show. Would definitely go see them again Even got to meet, shake hands, and get photos with Hammerfall for free after the show :)

Sabaton are a really good band to see live because they really interact with the crowd or audience and they feed off the interaction. Rather than worrying about the amount of money they make and the size of the venue they care about what the crowd thinks about their music and like the crowd to be involved in the song choice. They also have a lot lf humour and despite their limited English vocabulary they are still able to communicate with the crowd. Despite their crudeness they are really friendly and passionate about their music.

Great Show,very theatrical, good pyrotechnics,amazing performance from the entire band Sabatons vocals are insanely powerful live.

Sabatons crowd makes up half the show everyone at the London show was singing along to practically every song and other fans where generally friendly.When it came to the pit it was how it should be bloody insane as a 5'3 Woman there is nothing i appreciate more than when mosh piters don't go easy on me i got bashed around like no ones business and it was fucking awesome.

Past Sabaton Events

More information about sabaton.

Last year has been a challenging yet menacing one for bands all over the world: It has been a time of insecurity, worries and the fear of never being able to return to the status quo of touring.

But,   SABATON   never was a band to fall that easily due to difficult circumstances. Instead of giving up on their visions and ambitions, the Swedish metal battalion forged their monumental tour plans to present to their fans today: A tour that makes the hearts of fans beat faster. If you close your eyes and listen carefully, you can already hear the sound of roaring guitars like thunder above a battlefield. You can catch the epic melodies like victorious anthems after a deserved victory and you can feel the tension of an approaching sensation: "The Tour To End All Tours".

In 2023, SABATON will be bringing their ground-breaking modern metal to the people and delivering breathtaking live shows in a setting that will once again set new bars for concerts of this kind.
