Are they /our band/?

No. Real historians do not listen to non-orchestral music.

...

>be swedish
>go on erasmus
>eastern european girls come up to you to talk about....Sabaton

Not sure how to feel desu

Their music sucks, I don't care what they sing about.

No. Their music is shit and so are their fans.

This.

This seriously proves my point really. When I say "romanticize", I mean this shit goes both ways. It's either "panzers thunder in the east" or "the fields run with blood abloo how they suffered" cheese fest. I'm dead serious, if my relative or friend died in some modern conflict and these fags wrote a song about it I'd probably be insulted.

I stand by my point - you can not enjoy Sabaton unless:
a) you're hiding under 10 layers of irony
b) you're younger than 13-15
c) you're a full-fledged manchild

The same can be said about practically all metal bands, though.

I bet you think Sabaton also approves of the genocide of Srebrenica Massacre because the song portrays it from the Radovan's perspective.

What? No, why would I think that? It's clearly the same "bodies burning, blood is flowing, politicians are corrupt hurr" cheese fiesta.

Look, I get it, I was a teenager once too. You'll grow out of it soon enough.

That fat faggot in the middle looks like a guy I fisted last week.
Why is he wearing body armor?

"Your refutation of my point seriously proves my point really."

"Anybody with different tastes in music from me is bad."

Fuck off. If you're going to do retarded shitposts at least make them funny.

Also guy on the right looks like Jay from the inbetweeners in a wig lol.

>not wearing body armor after a fisting session

What kind of weirdo are you?

I like to tar and feather myself after I come so I can't really comment desu...

>Your refutation of my point seriously proves my point really.

How exactly did you refute my point really? By posting a cringy cheesefest song that falls in line with everything I said, especially in the second post?

>Anybody with different tastes in music from me is bad.

Not at all. I'm very tolerant of different tastes. I don't like metal, but even I can admit that some of it is objectively impressive. Sabaton is complete manchild garbage though, and you know it.

>/our band/
The idea of declaring your personal favorite thing to be the collective bespeaks of a desperate identity issue.

You said they romanticized war. I and others showed that you were wrong. Then you moved the goalposts like a faggot.

"I'm very tolerant, I just don't like metal."

lol, keep telling yourself how "tolerant" you are, fucking retarded manchild

>Then you moved the goalposts like a faggot.

Where did I move them?

>"I'm very tolerant, I just don't like metal."

>lol, keep telling yourself how "tolerant" you are, fucking retarded manchild

You forgot to quote the rest of my post. Metal can definitely be good, Sabaton is not, though. I mean look at OP's pic, they're clowns.

It's fine user, you just like bad music. Some of the music I like can be easily said to be objectively bad too.

We Burn can easily be mistaken out of context for a Serbian nationalistic song promoting the events of the war. You say they glorify war because of the lyrics in their songs, when they made a fucking song about killing Muslim filth and purifying the land. They make bombastic songs about the fucking Wehrmacht for Christ's sake, do you really think they glorify Nazis?

>"No, we don't glorify anything, we just tell stories about things that have happened." - Rikard Sundén

Also lol at your "objectively bad" comment, like art can be objectively bad, fuck off out of here troll.

>Also lol at your "objectively bad" comment, like art can be objectively bad

How old are you?

Art can be objectively bad
Anything I don't like is OBJECTIVELY bad
OBJECTIVELY
>But
No buts, deal with it

If you set an objective standard then you can compare the qualities and properties of the artifact against the standard and deduce objectively the goodness or badness of it.
I think for instance, good art is practiced skillfully and deliberately, but I'm not an art critic. I don't know what the official standard is.

also in before
>degeneracy
if you want to object to there being objective standards, literally a term for evaluating merits of artworks

So they should not talk about war at all? Are you John Green?

>fists guys
>calls others faggot

Iron Maiden and Bolt Thrower are the best Veeky Forums bands.

they're just catchy songs user

I unironically like Ghost Division and most of their WW2 songs desu

Metal isn't even /ourmusic/
Eurobeat is the music of Veeky Forums, every board and every user must pay homage to the glory of superior dance music

Some of their songs are fun to listen to but they're incredibly cheesy.

Wrong that's pic related.

Surely this will go well... this time.

They look like a bunch of faggots >doesn't fist guys
Faggot

People have been writing songs and poems glorifying war for fucking ever dumbass.

I like them, but actually like cheesiness and think cheesy is the best. I acknowledge they are one of the cheesiest metal band ever but I don't consider this a bad thing.

My favorite songs by them are Gallipoli, Hell and Back, and Gott Mitt Uns. Those are amazing. I sing them in the shower pretending my shampoo bottle is a microphone, I know it's kind of pathetic but I stopped giving a fuck long ago.

find an album more Veeky Forums than Arthur

>protip: you cant

With all the shitloads of musicians and music historians rediscovering old music and re-elaborating old music into modern forms, not to mention the shitload of folk musicians going out of their way to be ethnically evocative, do we really need to call a fucking power metal band of all things (and a shitty one at that) /ourguys/? What next, Miley Cyrus elected queen of /mu/?

>Sabaton
You faggots do realize that it's possible to have music about history that's actually good, right? Iron Maiden did it perfectly fine for years.

Sabaton's just a mediocre band who've latched onto the niche of "muh history" because neckbeards and autists will latch onto it. Their music is uninspired and average at best, and their fans are the WH40k autists of the music world.

They've managed to fuck up their gimmick worse than that Mongolian throat-singing metal band.

Well for starters, the name literally looks like a bundle of sticks
>literal faggot metal

I feel like mentioning a good band in this thread is cheating somehow.

I only find their swedish songs to be good

Such a beautiful album, what the hell is it doing in this neckbeardfest

>"the fields run with blood abloo how they suffered" cheese fest
Every piece of fiction written post-WW1 that contemplates the futility of war, evaluates masculinity in the modern world and generally questions the values of the past is apparently romanticizing war.

I listened to some songs of theirs. The "singing" hurts my brain.

They do realise that when people say "The king is dead, long live the king", they mean "the old king is dead, long live the new king", right

Come on now, actual communists wouldn't put up with that shit. Nor would they put up with the religion. Veeky Forums is a loose coalition of a bunch of dumb ideologies bound together by a love of historical shitposting and occasionally actual history. There is socialists and communists here because there was always socialists and communists here.
