Description
Carolus Rex is the sixth studio album by Swedish power metal band Sabaton. It is a concept album based on the rise and fall of the Swedish Empire, whose monarch Charles XII gives it its title. It was released with both English and Swedish vocals. It is the last album to feature guitarists Oskar Montelius and Rikard Sundén, drummer Daniel Mullback and keyboardist Daniel Mÿhr. It was produced by Peter Tägtgren in Abyss Studios.
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.
