Sabaton release new lyric video 'Sparta'

Heavy metal heroes, SABATON, released their new record entitled »The Last Stand«, on August 19th through Nuclear Blast and have entered the Top 10 of the worldcharts on a fantastic #6. This result shows that SABATON are more successful globally than ever before (for example #1 in Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, Czech Republic, #2 in Germany, Austria, Poland and many more).

Today, SABATON release a new lyric video for the song 'Sparta'. Watch it here: https://youtu.be/p1SlBlB5pzU

The band comments: "The battle of Thermopylae is in many ways one of the most iconic last stands in history. King Leonidas and his 300 Spartans were certainly not as alone as portrayed in the famous movie ”300”, but in the end it was their sacrifice that would be remembered by the world to come. An amazing story of the Greek nation states which would rather die than lose their freedom."
