Sabaton issue The Last Stand trailer

Sabaton have issued a trailer for their upcoming album The Last Stand.

The follow-up to 2014’s Heroes will be released on August 19 via Nuclear Blast and the Swedish outfit previously revealed the track The Lost Battalion.

Frontman Joakim Broden says: “I want to share this joy and happiness with everyone because that’s what I’m feeling because the album is done. It’s fantastic and I love it.”

The Last Stand can be pre-ordered now. The band recently wrapped up a European tour but will hit the road again in August for a handful of live shows before heading out with Accept in 2017.
