Sabaton - Legends (2025)
Legends finds Sabaton reaffirming their core strengths—anthemic choruses, galloping rhythms, bold guitar hooks—while diving deeper into legendary figures beyond the wars they’ve so often mined. The opener “Templars” and tracks like “Hordes of Khan” and “The Duelist” showcase their knack for turning complex history into accessible, high-octane metal. For the first time all members share songwriting duties, which yields greater variety without sacrificing cohesion. While the concept is grand, the album rarely loses focus: each song delivers its narrative with energy and clarity. In total, Legends stands as a strong entry in Sabaton’s catalogue—ambitious yet familiar, and likely to satisfy both longtime fans and newcomers.
