35. Anything on Sabaton's "The Great War"
Fri Aug 8, 2025, 02:49 PM
Aug 2025

Swedish Metal band Sabaton did an entire concept album about World War I. Sabaton dies a lot of songs about historical battles, but this is their only album that's about one war - there are songs about Lawrence of Arabia, the Marines at Belleau Wood and the Red Baron on it.

Since we must pick one, let's post "82nd All The Way" which is abuut 82nd Infantry Division hero Sgt. Alvin York.
