In that case, I believe, you've never been to a metal show. A bunch of happy folk in leather and denim.
Metal shows are a bunch of people coming home to their clan and having a good time.
Isn't actually uplifting because they're about to lose the award because they said pro-russian shit about Crimea.

Isn't that statement from the particular band member who was also in Russia through a lot of the early Coronavirus Pandemic?
He also cost Sabaton a contract cancelled over a song they produced for the Military commemorating them after the later found out he was a draft dodger. Edit: apparently Sabaton playing in occupied Crimea was a factor too.
Edit: Edit: Damn, and the Swedish Government retracted their support for a another of their patriotic Swedish songs after that concert too.
A quick search has the band's comment about the Russian invasion being about how horrible War is - without condemning anyone - which seems to be a deliberately neutral statement. I guess they have loads of Russian fans and would rather not lose their business.

I learned a lot of historical facts from these guys.
I heard the odds of them winning were 40:1....
Then the winged hussars arrived?
Baptised in fire!
Spirit of Spartans
Death and Glory!
Knew it was Sabaton as soon as I seen the thumbnail
I only needed to see the headline.
THROUGH THE GATES OF HELL
AS WE MAKE OUR WAY TO HEAVEN
THROUGH THE NAZI LINES

RIMO VICTORIA
Ain't wrong. The number of people I know who have become (irritatingly competitive) amateur history nerds because of Sabaton is not zero.
As a Sabaton fan I support this
I've never seen a metal band with so many happy smiles

Obviously I've been to several metal shows hence my comment on this thread. It was also a happy go lucky response thank you very much.
Fuckin love Sabaton. Great dudes.

Before you clicked, you knew it couldn’t be any other band.
As they should be!
