Sabaton Honored For Gold And Platinum Albums

Swedish war machine Sabaton is currently touring the world in support of latest studio record "The Last Stand" and also holding #1 ("The Last Stand"), #7 ("Carolus Rex" on the top for 248 weeks in a row now), #9 ("Heroes"), and #17 ("The Art Of War") in the Swedish Top 20 rock charts.

After hitting the charts worldwide with "The Last Stand," the band was recently honored with new plaques for impressive album sales: the album achieved Gold in the band's homeland Sweden and in Poland. Previous studio album, "Heroes," was even platinum-certified in Sweden.

Bassist Pär Sundström commented: "This is proof of two things - first, that we are still able to make music that fans want to listen to, and second, that we have fantastic fans who really care. Sure, the current tour is called 'The Last Tour,' but as long as it is going like this we'll be going strong for a long time."
