Went to Sabatons first show as headliners last night, not sure who liked who more: the crowd or the band. Just an amazing show, it's totally rad when the entire crowd is jumping and singing along to every single song. Sang The Caroleans Prayer in Swedish and let the crowd decide half the setlist, to boot.

Possibly the best show I've ever been to, honestly.

I sure hope this is the place to put this new single from Within Temptation, because it sure as gently caress needs to go somewhere:

Is this where we discuss how the new Nightwish album is the best thing they've done in the past decade? (Barring parts of DPP). If not, please direct me to a thread where I can express these sentiments. :v:

Sabaton continues to put on one of the best live acts I've ever seen, fantastic performance and tight audio. How these guys aren't major yet continues to befuddle me.

Nightwish was underwhelming at best, they had the drat amps so loud that I could barely make out the vocals through the distortion. Such a loving waste of a century old opera hall, The Islander shone like a gem because they had the amps and bass almost turned off.

I dunno how you define "major", but afaik Sabaton are pretty loving big these days.

Oh it was pretty funny, they got a far more intense welcome than Nightwish. The crowd was chanting Sabaton for a good three minutes at one point.

I fully expect they'll be headlining instead of supporting the next time they come to town, and they deserve it. Their days of doing 400 capacity venues are done.

I love this album, this is the release of the year for me. After a week of repeat listening it just gets better and better and better.

Goddamn, dropping swing 8th jazz into a metal track about everyone being slaughtered by robots is just so loving :allears:
