SABATON - Heroes (10 Year Anniversary) - 2LP - Transparent Violet Vinyl [JUL 5]

2LP - Limited Edition 140g Transparent Violet Vinyl housed in a Gatefold Sleeve.  

Sabaton's breakthrough album "Heroes" was originally released in 2014. Musically the album struck the metal scene like a fighter aircraft from the clear sky. After serving some ultra-catchy, more traditional Sabaton epics, this Falun-quintet dives into more unprecedented territory with songs such as powerful "The Ballad Of Bull", Western-movie themed "To Hell And Back" and guitar-driven "Resist And Bite" - the latter one being some of the most up-to-date performances on the endlessly vibrant album.

As a whole, "Heroes" serves compelling mixture of epic metal anthems, carried out by ultra-powerful guitar riffs, pounding drums, catchy choruses, "rough-meets-melody" kind of vocals and incomparable solos - not forgetting the totally new level of intensity and bombastic sound quality, thanks to a world-famous producer and Sabaton's long-time guardian angel Peter Tägtgren. "Heroes" definitely introduced Sabaton more varied and dynamically wider than ever before, but at the same time, the fresh-sounding record still possess every imaginable element that one may expect from these heroic northmen.

Double LP, Gatefold, contains bonus tracks, Trans Violet.
