SABATON - Steel Commanders (Official Lyric Video)

[@Sabaton]

Known as “the black day of the German army”, on August 8, 1918, 530 British tanks broke into the German lines in Amiens, France, achieving major breakthroughs for the first time in years, heralding the beginning of the end of the Great War. These fearsome machines were introduced to fight the First World War, and following their success, tank technology developed in leaps and bounds in time for the approaching Second World War.

Not just the bang, but all the little things, like the gun hitting the back of the recoil guard, the empty casing slapping against the back of the breech. Pure heaven

Literally found Sabaton the same way. I always liked history all my life and was recently seeing a bunch of simple history on youtube. When the shark sung The Last Stand and Resist and Bite I liked the songs so much that I searched the band up. What I found really cool is that some of the stories I learned recently from simple history had songs that Sabaton sung about. Some of my favorites are Winged Hussars and The Attack of the Dead Men. I have so many of there songs now.
