Carolus Rex by Sabaton
Recorded in two separate versions – English and Swedish – this album is considered by many to be Sabaton’s masterpiece. It is the band’s most epic album to date, telling with historical accuracy the history of the Swedish Empire – from its beginning in 1611 to its collapse more than a century later during the reign of King Charles XII, after whom the album is named.
• Sabaton fact: Carolus Rex has been certified quadruple platinum in the band’s native Sweden.
