The final concert will take place on December 11, after which SABATON "will regroup, rearm and prepare for yet another strike in 2011."

SABATON recently filmed a video in Warsaw, Poland for the song "Uprising", which is described as "a powerful and emotional tribute to those who lost their lives in the Warsaw uprising in 1944." The clip features an appearance by Swedish actor Peter Stormare ("Prison Break", "8MM", 'Fargo') as SS-Obergruppenführer von dem Bach and was directed by Jacek Raginis (who is related to decorated WWII hero Wladyslav Raginis).

SABATON's previous album, "The Art of War", landed on the Swedish chart at No. 5.
