Sabaton have shared a cover of Manowar’s Kingdom Come , recorded both as a tribute to Joey DeMaio’s Kings Of Metal, and as a video game collaboration.
The ‘Sabowar’ anthem is being released as a two-track single, backed with Metal Trilogy, a a medley of three Sabaton songs, Metal Ripper, Metal Crüe and Metal Machine.
Sabaton bassist Pär Sundström says, “Our fans have spoken. YOU requested the release of this song everywhere, so this is for all of you! This recording was meant to be a tribute to Manowar and a collaboration with a video game bearing the same name, when we recorded it a few years ago. We are happy to see that you appreciate the song so much, and we have paid attention to your wishes and requests. You asked for it, you got it!”
Set for physical release on August 27, all 666 copies of the limited Black/Red Spot 12 inch vinyl are already sold out.
The Swedes will embark upon a 26 city, 17 countries European tour in the spring of 2022, with The Hu and Lordi in tow.
Sundström says, “We have all been waiting for far too long for this... And we are more ready than ever. By the time we start this tour we will have a whole treasure chest of new songs to play along with a lot of other surprises. You do not want to miss The Tour to End All Tours.”
