Der Metal Krieger Let's make this world metal shall we?
Bassist Pär Sundström of the Swedish band SABATON checks in during the band’s run through European summer festivals to announce the following:
“Hello our American friends, we know you have been looking forward to this. As you know, we had to cancel a few shows on our last U.S. tour. Now we have some great news: we will do these shows in February next year! And even better, we have been able to add some more shows… this time on the West Coast since the last tour was focused on the East Coast. Can’t wait to return to the U.S.!”
Headlining in support of their latest studio album, Carolus Rex, eleven cities will be saturated with SABATON’s fist-pumping anthems that celebrate the triumph of the human spirit. Local bands will open every show.
