Known for their bombastic blend of power metal and historical storytelling, the band promises a record that dives deep into the lives of history\u2019s most remarkable figures, from Joan of Arc and Napoleon to Julius Caesar and Japan\u2019s legendary samurai, Miyamoto Musashi.<\/p>\n<p>To mark the occasion, Sabaton have released two blistering new singles: \u201cThe Duelist\u201d and \u201cLightning at the Gates.\u201d These tracks follow the earlier drops of \u201cTemplars\u201d and \u201cHordes of Khan,\u201d each showcasing the band\u2019s signature mix of thunderous riffs, cinematic production, and triumphant choruses. As frontman Joakim Brod\u00e9n\u2019s vocals soar over relentless drums and choral harmonies, Legends cements Sabaton\u2019s reputation for transforming history into an electrifying metal saga.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Among its unique offerings, Legends will be available in multiple formats\u2014including CD, 2 CD digibook and earbook (each with the exclusive Storyteller Edition), 11 unique vinyl editions themed around historical icons, a colored cassette, and a limited-edition box set. The \u201cHannibal Edition\u201d and \u201cMiyamoto Musashi Edition\u201d correspond with today\u2019s new singles, giving fans a collectible experience that ties each song to its own mythic persona.<\/p>\n<p>This project marks a milestone for Sabaton: the first time all band members collaborated on the songwriting process. Recorded once again with longtime producer Jonas Kjellgren at Sweden\u2019s Black Lounge Studios and featuring artwork by Peter Sallai, Legends pushes the boundaries of Sabaton\u2019s sound while staying true to the anthemic metal storytelling that made them global icons.<\/p>\n<p>By intertwining melody, might, and meticulous research\u2014bolstered by their Sabaton History Channel collaborations\u2014the band continues to bridge past and present through heavy music that honors those who shaped the world. As Sabaton put it, Legends isn\u2019t just an album; it\u2019s a chronicle of courage, legacy, and defiance set to roaring guitars and soaring choirs.<\/p>\n<p>Track Listing:<\/p>\n<p>Templars<\/p>\n<p>Hordes of Khan<\/p>\n<p>A Tiger Among Dragons<\/p>\n<p>Crossing the Rubicon<\/p>\n<p>I, Emperor<\/p>\n<p>Maid of Steel<\/p>\n<p>Impaler<\/p>\n<p>Lightning at the Gates<\/p>\n<p>The Duelist<\/p>\n<p>The Cycle of Songs<\/p>\n<p>Till Seger<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Swedish metal titans Sabaton are marching into a new chapter with Legends, their eleventh studio album and first&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":256835,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[64,63,151486,151487,134,46195,151488,151489,151490,147074,151491,136,151492,151493,151494],"class_list":{"0":"post-256834","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-better-noise-music","11":"tag-black-lounge-studios","12":"tag-entertainment","13":"tag-hannibal","14":"tag-jeanne-darc","15":"tag-joan-of-arc","16":"tag-jonas-kjellgren","17":"tag-julius-caesar","18":"tag-miyamoto-musashi","19":"tag-music","20":"tag-napoleon-bonaparte","21":"tag-peter-sallai","22":"tag-sabaton"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256834","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=256834"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/256834\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/256835"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=256834"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=256834"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=256834"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
