A new Sabaton History episode, covering the new Sabaton cover of "Defense of Moscow" by Radio Tapok (a Russian band that often covers Sabaton songs into Russian, good stuff).
Pär and Joakim talk about doing this in three short videos here, here, and here. This is a good fit for the band, and it allows them to return the favor that Radio Tapok did in spreading Sabaton's music into Russian and the wider Russophonic world, as none in Sabaton do speak Russian. Radio Tapok has performed with the band during Russian legs of their tours; they are legit.
While we all wait for Sabaton to return to North America, or release a new album, I can recommend Indy Neidel's work with Time Ghost in their coverage of the World Wars and the interval between them. I've posted about the World War Two channel previously; their Great War channel is just as good, etc., though with the caveat that they do adhere to the mainstream narrative- stuff like Stalin's War has yet to make itself felt.
Yes, it's unfortunate that this is now just infrequent specials, but they're still good- same as with the boys doing The Grand Tour. It is what it is.

ReplyDeleteVox posted a lengthy article but I still don't get it.
Was Stalin about to invade Germany first but was preempted?
Then how re the Greek and Yugoslav campaigns related if at all?
Just how ground breaking is the book?
