Sabaton Tuska 2015Ruotsalainen power metalia soittava Sabaton viimeistelee parhaillaan tulevan albuminsa tietoja ennen studioon astumista. Yhtyeen vokalisti Joakim Broden antoi hiljattain haastattelun Spark -nimiselle lehdelle, jossa mieheltä kysyttiin yhtyeen tämän hetkisestä tilanteesta tulevan albuminsa suhteen. Joakimin mukaan bändillä alkaa olemaan albumin materiaali jo kasassa muutamaa pientä asiaa lukuunottamatta. Voit lukea Joakimin ajatuksia yhtyeen tulevan albumin tiimoilta tästä:

”We are actually just finalizing the details. I don’t wanna say anything yet, because we can just change our minds in the last second; we’ve done that before. So I’m not trying to be secretive or anything. But I can promise everyone that as soon as we know and we know we started the recordings and most of the vocals are done, and me and Pär [Sundström, bass] and Chris [Rörland, guitar] and Thobbe [Englund, guitar] and Hannes [van Dahl, drums] can’t change our minds, then we will let everyone know.”

Kysyttäessä Joakimilta tuleeko tuleva albumi olemaan lyriikoiden osalta jatkumoa ”Heroes” -albumille kertoo Joakim seuraavaa:

”No, not really. We were thinking about it, actually, because that was, for us, to research and to write the lyrics, that was one of the most interesting albums to do, from that point of view. And we tried, I think, two or three different themes, but we still couldn’t get the same feeling, personally, as we did for ’Heroes’. We were actually considering doing that, but then we found a topic that… it’s touching on the same subject, [but] a little bit different.”

Kysyttäessä tuleeko Sabatonin seuraava albumi käsittelemään sotien pahuuksia vastaa Joakim seuraavaa:

”No, no, no, no, no, no, no. We actually wanted to do that before, but our lovely record label didn’t like that idea, and I can see the point in a way. Obviously, people in different places [have] different sensibilities about things. When we did ’Heroes’, we wanted to also do a second CD that was called ’Commanders’. And in Sweden, it wouldn’t be a big problem to put a song about Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin… you know, get all the crazy guys in there. The problem could be, though, that in other parts of the world… I’m guessing it would probably okay in the Czech Republic; you seem to be quite easy about these things. But I’m guessing Germany, America, doing these things… also maybe Russia wouldn’t like us digging into those things. And we wouldn’t want to make people really sad or end up on a ’banned’ list. It would be kind of stupid for us.”
