Sabaton - First Four Albums To Be Re-Released

Official press release

Do you wonder what Sabaton did in the studio about 1 month ago? Link]
Do you wonder why Primo Victoria, Attero Dominatus, Metalizer and Art of War is so hard to get these days?

This is why...

To be able to continue to do what we all love, meaning to continue to play music and to tour the world, we have now purchased the rights to the Sabaton music. And to celebrate this we want to make them available again to all of you in a unique cooperation between Sabaton, Nuclear Blast and Black Lodge.

Now what does this mean?

Well, first it means that when you buy a Sabaton album, more of the money spent on the albums will actually go to Sabaton and second it means that we want to celebrate this by making the first four albums available again, but in really cool new versions! We give you... The Sabaton Re-Armed Editions and here is a sample of one bonus track.

The 4 first original albums of Sabaton, complete with new artwork, new booklets, posters and of course: New music! We have digged deep into the treasury of Sabaton to find unique, strange, funny and unexpected songs. Every album on the Re-Armed editions will feature new tracks and they will include some old demos, some coversongs, some live versions of songs, some really old and unheard songs and some completely new songs recorded in Studio Abyss. They will all be re-released on the 24th of September & can from today be pre-ordered right here!

A contract with the biggest Heavy Metal label in the world has been signed and the next album will be released by Nuclear Blast in the spring of 2010.

The last album "The Art Of War" touched the hearts of tousands and tousands of metalfans around the world, and with their help we are now ready to hit the studio and record our new album.

What way could we better end our 10th year?
-See you all in 2010 under the Coat of Arms!

--

"Nuclear Blast is very stoked to announce another great signing:
Sabaton - one of the most promising upcoming bands in heavy metal these days!

Although they have already released four great albums, they are still unknown to the majority of the metal legions - which is a shame!
We noticed the band's potential to become one of the leaders of nowadays metal scene - especially by visiting their festival appearances and club shows.

Together Nuclear Blast and Sabaton are prepared for the next step to bring the band on a much higher level!
-Watch out for their new album in spring 2010!"

(Jaap Wagemaker / A&R of Nuclear Blast)

Sabaton - Working On New Album

Sabaton have offered the following update:

"Finally the time has come to make another album. Many people have asked us if it will be another album with war themes, and of course it will. The lyrics based on historical battles has become the mark of Sabaton and we plan not to leave that, at least for now.

And like on the last album we will now ask all of you fans out there if you have any ideas to help us write the album. So, any ideas for songs about battles can be sent to newalbum sabaton net, please include links to informations and facts also. Every idea will be read and considered but please remember that Sabaton is mainly focused on more recent events so please do not ask us to write songs a bout vikings, knights... Other bands do that better than us. Please come with ideas that is more unknown, the perfect concept for a song were the story of the 720 Polish soldiers who inspired us to write the song "40:1". We await your ideas."
