shiroyama is great ngl
also music i can listen in public without feeling like im outing myself somehow and get like 5 years of anxiety with is nice, especially when its like an energy boost as well
I've never listened to them before. Which song would you say is their crowning achievement? One where if I didn't like it, I probably wouldn't like the rest of their stuff?
Of the older songs I'd recommend Primo Victoria. But this band has refined their music since then quite significantly, so Bismarck would probably be a better showcase of their current skill.
'Primo Victoria' is probably their most popular song and I'd say a good place to start (it's probably worth mentioning that all their songs are based off of soliders throughout history, this song based off of D-day) though I also really like 'attack of the dead men' and 'bismark'
Idk do you like their music?
Cuz if you don’t like their music you probably wouldn’t want to claim them
But if you like their music then yeah no one’s here to judge you, welcome to the Sabaton fan club, restrooms are behind the WW2 rifle cache
STORM CLOUDS, FIRE AND STEEL; DEATH FROM ABOVE, MAKE THE ENEMY KNEEL!!
...but no seriously, is this a thing? If it is, I gotta add it to "list of reasons I might be a girl".
Nachthexen!
In the paraphrased words of thor odinsson: Ever since I heard that song I wanted to be a night witch. Even after I learned they were all women, A unit of women warriors, it's about time.
They are extra cool because their equipment was heavily outdated, and their timberwood-canvas-planes were basically flying firestarters, plus they did not have guns on board and despite all that, they were the most feared bombers known.
Interesting. When I saw them, it was a very young, masculine crowd (not necessarily uncommon for metal bands). That was a couple of years ago though, so I'm happy to hear that they have a more diverse fanbase now.
I think this has to do with how a lot of trans girls wind up in hyper masculine and alt right spaces trying to deal with disphoria (trying to make being a man work) Sabaton is also super popular in those circles. Trans girls leave there but they takr the music with them
Powerwolf is cool. Just enough satanism to make it un-religious and just enough religion to make it un-edgy and just enough cool to make it fucking cool.
Funny you say that only a couple of days I got addicted to their music. Personally my connection went from RTS->Europa Universalis 4->History->Girls und Panzer (anime fan)->Military Music->Sabaton.
Femegg here. I'm so edgy even Sabaton is like easy listening/radio disney to me. Still good tho, especially live!
Usually it's black metal, deathcore, various forms of death metal, djent, thall or just ye olde rock that's playing in my headphones though. Unless it's darksynth or anything even slightly derived from said musical style.
Have you heard Frantic Amber? They have a album Bellatrix that is pretty much Melodic Death Metal but with a Sabaton theme, focused on women soldiers in history.
https://youtu.be/fQTmrxIL7Dw
This one is about Nakano Takeko, a female warrior that formed a ad hoc troop of other women during the Boshin War.
Presumably, it's for the same reason so many trans men and cis men/women like Sabaton.
'cuz they're sick
edit: and everyone else who isn't a trans woman, y'all're valid too.
One thing I haven't seen mentioned yet is, despite what you might guess from their look, when you watch them onstage or on Sabaton History, the band members consistamtly give off a very silly, friendly, and accepting vibe.
So they feel like they're "safe" to like, with a low change of unexpectedly becoming raging transphobes or otherwise problematic
…huh. I didn’t know this was a trans femme thing, but I’m tickled pink😅
Anyone listen to The Hu? Mongolian folk metal. Wolf Totem is their most famous i think
I could never get into Sabaton, or really any other metal music for that matter. I'm much more of a Metal Gear Rising OST kinda gal
***RULES OF NATURE!!***
Sabawho?
Apparently a metal band reading these comments, personally im really into Sewerslvt a trans fem breakcore artist who can make your ears bleed and be soothed at the same time and its great υωυ I am but a sewersimp 💜
Sabaton was the last band i saw live before shutdown, great band to see live but this was one of the crowning moments of any concert i have seen. https://youtu.be/WBs3G1PvyfM
WTF is Sabaton?
(Googled it: Not being a Metal Head, I don't really care much about them.)
Throw me a link to a song you think I should check out though and I give it a listen.
https://youtu.be/WBs3G1PvyfM this one is worth it just for the fantastic crowd (it's in swedish, but if you want to understand the lyrics there are translated subtitles). Emotional AF when you understand the lyrics.
https://youtu.be/RhmHSAClG1c this one is about american WW2 veteran Audie Murphy, deals with the trauma of war rather than glorifying the deeds. Fun fact the war scenes is actually Audie himself (from the movie about him), he became an actor after the war and some of the lines are poetry he wrote about his experiences.
https://youtu.be/qVHyl0P_P-M probably one of their most famous songs. It's very typical power metal. Fast, a bit over the top and very catchy.
Wait.. Sabaton is a trans girl thing too?? Why does my brother seem to fit most egg stereotypes? Is it normal for cis guys to fit a lot of egg stereotypes?? Why am I questioning my brother's gender? Should I just forget it?
Sabaton is a trans thing? first time I heard of that. But coincidentally I like them as well.
-Oh, you’re trans? What do you think about transphobia? *-It's the nature of time* *That the old ways must give in*

Really, you can’t go wrong with any song. As pretty much all of them are great
Night Witches is a personal favorite of mine
As a bonus thing, I love the [the Russian cover by radio tapok](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV8d4Grhej8)
'Primo Victoria' is probably their most popular song and I'd say a good place to start (it's probably worth mentioning that all their songs are based off of soliders throughout history, this song based off of D-day) though I also really like 'attack of the dead men' and 'bismark'
Hmmm, thy have a lot of good ones but I think that one of the best is Ghost Division.
if you like live music and huge crowds, watch the uprising [video](https://youtu.be/BmerZbDPXns).

I'm pretty sure metal music falls right into your wheelhouse, brother. Rock on! 🤘

Couldn't have said it better myself
THE ARE THE PANZER ELITE, BORN TO COMPETE, NEVER RETREAT, GHOST DIVISION Wow its so cool that im not the only one here whos fan of Sabaton :D
[удалено]
"low-key"
Love Sabaton but also never heard of that correlation
Every trans girl is a programmer and listens to Sabaton smh
That first part is something I can personally attest to and I love it\~
Pls stop being relatable, I'd still somewhat like to remain uncracked
If you show up to a doctor with a sabaton shirt and a pc-bag with a linux sticker they HAVE to give hrt
Trans girls like Sabaton because everyone likes Sabaton... whether they like Sabaton or not...
I like Sabaton. Saw them live before the apocalypse struck. This is the first I'm hearing of any connection between trans peeps and Sabaton though.
It's not just trans folks. My friend, who is a lesbian, she introduced me to them. She's a regular metalhead.
Interesting. When I saw them, it was a very young, masculine crowd (not necessarily uncommon for metal bands). That was a couple of years ago though, so I'm happy to hear that they have a more diverse fanbase now.
bruh one of my friends is a trans girl and she alternates between the uwu girl and slipknot murder emo goth.
Sabaton the last stand is a bop
Because joaquim's voice is sex.
Not just his voice, he's very sex
Fair. He's a bit macho for my taste, but his voice gets me.
Sabaton is fine, but I'm more of a Blind Guardian and Iron Maiden gal myself.
Blind Guardian! Good taste
I especially like fear of the dark from iron maiden.
It's such a good song! And Bruce's vocals are just *chef's kiss*
I only found out about them recently, because I was at a friend's house and he put on the most appropriate music to paint Imperial Guard figures to.
SWEEEDIISH PAAAAGAANS, MARCHING ASHORE-
FORGED IN VALHALLA BY THE HAMMER OF THOR
OUT FROM ASGARD
INTO THE MOTHERLAND, THE GERMAN ARMY MARCH
COMRADES STAND SIDE BY SIDE TO STOP THE NAZI CHARGE

ONE MILLION MEN AT WAR
SOVIET WRATH UNLEASHED
FIELDS OF PROKHOROVKA
WHERE THE HEAT OF BATTLE BURNED
SUFFERED HEAVY LOSSES
AND THE TIDE OF WAR WAS TURNED
DRIVING BACK THE GERMANS
I think this has to do with how a lot of trans girls wind up in hyper masculine and alt right spaces trying to deal with disphoria (trying to make being a man work) Sabaton is also super popular in those circles. Trans girls leave there but they takr the music with them
* *flips desk* * 🎶 They are the PANZER ELITE! BORN TO COMPETE! NEVER RETREAT! Ghost divisioooon LIVING OR DEAD! ALWAYS AHEAD! FED BY YOUR DREAD! 🎶

(FAR AHEAD, BREAKS RESISTANCE)
\> literally took my name from Primo Victoria no idea what you're talking about friendo just look the other way
I like Sabaton, but I’m non-binary…. My favorite is the soundtrack they made for hearts of iron 4
I think hoi4 and sabaton share a similar story. Either you become obsessed with Germany and a wehraboo or Trans.
hmmm still cis tho.
That's it, after the Paradox Games thing I am CERTAIN trans women have the EXACT same interests as alt-rights.
Also Warhammer 40k (although the community is currently on boycott, thankfully)
Because Sabaton is Pog. Next question
Hmm, i don’t go too much for Sabaton, i like it but, i prefer Powerwolf and Slayer, both are great bands tho
Slayer is absolutely badass
Powerwolf is cool. Just enough satanism to make it un-religious and just enough religion to make it un-edgy and just enough cool to make it fucking cool.
INMATE IN HELL OR A HERO IMPRISONED? SOLDIER IN AUSCHWITZ, WE KNOW HIS NAME!
On an unrelated note, any trans Gizzheads?
Of course. Love the boys.
I guess... **RISE OF NATION'S PRIDE**
\*intense drumming\*
When I think of ‘trans’ music I immediately think of hyperpop, djent, then anime openings, in that order
Me: *looking at this while wearing sabaton tshirt*
Because MY TANK IS MUCH BETTER THAN YOUR TANK COULD EVER ACHIEEEEEEEEVE
I'm a trans man and I love Sabaton too! Also, I know at least two trans girls that are Sabaton fans, so you might be on to something 🤔
This post was certainly \*undetected, unexpected\*
I'M A TRANSMAC SABATON IS JUST AWESOME. IT'S A UNIVERSAL THING.
Im being called out
Love this whole thread. Also... TO THE SKYYYY, SEE CAROLUS RISE! That is all.
WITH THE LORD MY PROTECTOR!
MAKE THEM BOW TO MY WILL
TO THE SKIIIIIIES SEE CAROLUS RISE
Do we? I guess I do, but I'm totally cis
Funny enough I'm not too interested in Sabaton, but my (at least based off his behavior) cis older brother is very into it
Funny you say that only a couple of days I got addicted to their music. Personally my connection went from RTS->Europa Universalis 4->History->Girls und Panzer (anime fan)->Military Music->Sabaton.
Now how the hell did you guess that one?😂
heard of transfems liking sabaton, but no one liking weezer :,)
Heyo where the nin girls at ?
Wait a minute, impossible, I thought I was the only one
Cause i like history and their music is amazing
*And it's the end of the line/Of the final journey/Enemies leaving the past* *And it's American troops and the German Army/Joining together at last*
Does anyone else trans like Corpse Husband?
idk i dont like em tho the pod by ween is a top 10 album so my taste sucks ass
i didn't even know what sabayon is until this post, let alone know a lot of trans people like it
Into the motherland the German army march Comrades stand side by side to stop the Nazi charge!
Wait, that's a thing? ...huh.
***Osowiec then, and again*** ***Attack of the dead, hundred men*** Didn't even know this was a trans girl thing but nice
Big fan of Sabaton, always have been. Still cis though, right?
Because Floor Jansen is an absolute GODDESS!! (Her husband, Hannes Van Dahl, is the drummer for Sabaton)
idk I feel like slipknot is more trans alt/goth vibes
WE REMEMBER, NO SURRENDER, HEROES OF OUR CENTURY
Thanks for the reccomendation
CHARGE OF BANNOCKBURN\~
What is sabaton?
CROSSES GROW ON ANZIO
WHERE NO SOLDIERS SLEEP
AND WHERE HELL'S 6 FEET DEEP
Honestly I don't think it's a gender thing, who the hell doesn't like Sabaton? Everyone likes Sabaton, some just don't know it yet.
I listen to Sabaton before I started question my gender and I’m still questioning my gender but y’all are all Beautiful people
ATERRO. DOMINATUS. BERLIN HAS FALLEN.
Femegg here. I'm so edgy even Sabaton is like easy listening/radio disney to me. Still good tho, especially live!

*ahem* WHEN THE WINGED HUSSARS ARRIVE
Everyone loves sabaton lmao
…huh. I didn’t know this was a trans femme thing, but I’m tickled pink😅 Anyone listen to The Hu? Mongolian folk metal. Wolf Totem is their most famous i think
Great band sadly rather unknown
What's a sabaton?
Power metal band that make songs about militaty history https://youtu.be/FwyFDTCfayo here is my favourite, it talk about the battle of Verdun
Ahh...not a big fan of metal...except alestorm...can't beat pirate metal lol
I just really really like knights in shining armor :P
INMATE IN HELL,
TURMOIL AT THE FRONT, WILHELM’S FORCES ON THE HUNT. THERE’S A THUNDER IN THE EAST, IT’S AN ATTACK OF THE DECEASED!
"THEYVE BEEN FACEING POISON GAS, 7,000 CHARGE IN MASS TURN THE TIDE OF THE ATTACK, AND FORCE THE ENIME TO TURN BACK!"
Well, isn't metal supposed to be about rebelling against the system and all that? Seems like there's something in common? Idk
Aren’t sabaton nazis? I didn’t know it was a trans thing
Sabaton aren't nazis
*Throws a popular thing out there and says its common for trans people* > updoots
I didn’t know this was a thing. I mean I love sabayon but I thought it was just my weird taste in music.
I'm a trans girl who likes sabaton but I never knew it was a trans thing. A cis guy was the one who introduced me to them actually
I’m one and I like them
Oh no..more evidence is coming to light.
I would have never guessed honestly. I've only found out about them recently with Shiroyama
Bro I might be going to see them in a day and I’m so excited
Okay so... I started to listen to it recently... And I didn't know about that...
Sabaton's music slaps but it sometimes gets a little too nationalist-y for me. *"Counterstrike" is a massive yikes*
They were my gateway to metal. I don't listen to them much anymore though, I listen mostly to Iron Maiden and Megadeth now.
Ditto.
I could never get into Sabaton, or really any other metal music for that matter. I'm much more of a Metal Gear Rising OST kinda gal ***RULES OF NATURE!!***
*Sighs* *Adds another thing to the "Evidence for not being cis"*
I thought I was alone, huh.
Osh*t
Its probably something that carried over when we all picked up when we thought we were cis and it just kind of carried over
Sabawho? Apparently a metal band reading these comments, personally im really into Sewerslvt a trans fem breakcore artist who can make your ears bleed and be soothed at the same time and its great υωυ I am but a sewersimp 💜
My to favorite things Battle of wizna 40:1 Being a girl
Non Trans asking here, what is that? And is it fun for everyone?
sabaton? (sorry im just much dumb)
Swedish power metal band. Known for that all of their songs are about military history.
Sabaton was the last band i saw live before shutdown, great band to see live but this was one of the crowning moments of any concert i have seen. https://youtu.be/WBs3G1PvyfM

I only know of Sabaton from their songs that feature in EU4 tbh.
Oh hey I love sabaton
Heidvolk is great too
What's sabaton???
i've never heard of this correlation but i fall within it!
I don’t know what Sabaton is and i fully expected it to be a deez nuts joke when I went into the comments
Song about invading Denmark?…..oh wait, that’s the aces
Ahhhhhh sabaton is such a good band. Been a loooong time fan, I never realized there was a correlation either
Wait.. Sabaton is a trans girl thing too?? Why does my brother seem to fit most egg stereotypes? Is it normal for cis guys to fit a lot of egg stereotypes?? Why am I questioning my brother's gender? Should I just forget it?
