“We have done a majestic record and we couldn't be happier with it. The new record, which will be unleashed to the masses in August by the world's most powerful heavy metal label Nuclear Blast Records, is simply a perfect addition to SABATON's discography, which already contains some of the most heroic heavy metal known to man. The title of this massive, to say the least, world tour comes from SABATON’s latest masterpiece »The Last Stand«. What? The last tour of SABATON? No, not really, as the band's worldwide war plans are already marching years ahead. No mercy will be given and all guns will be blazing, when this tireless killing machine will blow out sold-out arenas to another dimension. However, this is just the beginning: when the winter arrives, SABATON will unleash their prestigious live power upon the whole of Europe. Then, later this year, SABATON's sight will be directed at the USA, where the band is a doing huge tour and also performing at Ozzfest Meets Knotfest Festival in California, alongside BLACK SABBATH, SLIPKNOT and others.

In August, SABATON will once again command the troops on the holy grounds of Rockstad Falun Festival - aka Sabaton Open Air - when the band hosts their own three day festival - closing the last day with an explosive performance. Need some evidence? As we speak, these platinum selling, Falun-based heavy metal heroes are headlining some of the biggest European festivals through fires and flames and playing massive stadium concerts in front of tens of thousands of enthusiastic fans with legendary comrades, such as IRON MAIDEN and SCORPIONS. If you have any doubts, please update your books now: our favourite Swedish war machine SABATON are on their way to the absolute top of the heavy metal world.
