A Sabaton thread! Fun included!

[nailz]

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it's time for a SABATON thread! Some of you may have heard of them, some not. They're an absolutely KILLER Power Metal band who were brought to my attention right before the release of "ATTERO DOMINATUS" (which kicks ASS.) Their all about WW2 in Primo Victoria, sans their last song, "Metal Machine." This brings us to the fun. Below is a lyric guide to said song. It's clearly a montage of hommage, paid to some of the best metal bands out there..

Now, lets see how many references can we find?

LET THE FUN BEGIN, AND CHECK OUT SABATON (PROGPOWER 8 BOUND! RAWR!! (one can dream))



I have a phobia
a fear of the dark
afraid to shoot strangers
the animal talks

Guns scare me shitless
but love gun’s my friend
the sentinel’s coming
but is this the end

Riding on this crazy train
i’m going paranoid
watch me lose my mind
and break the law

It’s close to midnight and
he’s barking at the moon
the rainbow in the dark is shining

It’s close to midnight and
he’s barking at the moon
the kings of metal ride the sky

Is this s:t anger
the ultimate sin
or have I really
a black knight within

The gates of Babylon
are open and wide
shout at the devil
there’s nowhere to hide

Fighting for the world to keep
the wild child in it’s cage
broke my metal heart
against the wall

Edit: Fixed lyrics!

Riding on this crazy train

Wonder who inspired that.

Decided that your thread on the BG forum had run its course already, eh Pat?

Also, Sabaton alone would make me come to ProgPower next year!

Yes, but hey, gotta get the creative juices flowing, besides, if we dont advertise our favorite band, it's up to MTV!
