Work and influences of Sabaton Point 10

Sabaton is a Swedish power metal from Fallun Sweden. Their current members consist of Joakim Broden, Par Sundstrom, Chris Rorland, Hannes van Dahl and Tommy Johanson.  They formed in 1999 and since 2005 their infuence in song has been war and more specifically historical war events.

Their genre of music is power metal/ heavy metal and it is heavily influenced by historical war events. As an example their 2008 album "The art of war" was inspired by the brook written by Sun Tzu. They did this to showcase how even though 2000 years after the book was written and the technologies have evolved in a major way all the same tactics are still used.
They generally like to theme all their albums for example their lates album was called the last stand all about battles that were fought between heavily outnumbers soldiers and a bigger foe, and their album heroes focuses on individuals who have done outstanding things in the line of duty.

 Sabaton produces typical power metal style music, with a heavy beat and loud vocals. Now their songs are all in english they used to sing in swedish and the labum Corolus Rex was brought out in both english and swedish.
