Carolus Rex - 2022 Reissue, Sabaton, CD

In over two decades since their launch, Swedish metallers Sabaton have carved out a reputation as one of the hardest working bands in the business - gaining a legion of loyal fans across the globe, delivering ten highly-rated studio albums (including two certified platinum-sellers), and scoring multiple industry award wins and nominations not to mention launching their own annual festival and cruise. Combining soaring power riffs with vocalist Joakim Brodén's instantly-recognizable gruff baritone, the band refuses to be simply slotted into a genre. Fans need only know them as Sabaton: the heavy metal band that sings of real life wars and the people who played a part in them - of grueling campaigns and dazzling acts of bravery, of magnificent victories and touching personal struggles - true stories more fantastic than any fiction.
