Sometimes, the difference between bravery and insanity is indistinguishable: Over the course of four wars in six decades, Adrian Carton De Wiart proved himself to be the most unkillable soldier of all time. The Belgian-born British Army Officer survived several plane crashes, lost an eye and a hand, sustained eleven grievous injuries: He fully dedicated his life to military services. Whenever there was a war, Adrian Carton De Wiart was there. "Frankly, I had enjoyed the war", he said - peacefully passing away at the age of 83 in 1963.
With their new single "The Unkillable Soldier", SABATON pay tribute to this unique character of war history - in form of an epic anthem full of fantastic hooks, breathtaking guitar parts and once again a catchy tune. This tune surely will keep you whistling for some time after listening!
Bassist Pär Sundström states about the song:
"The story of Sir Adrian Carton De Wiart represents Sabaton in many ways, but especially because he never gave up in spite of what was thrown against him.
We were really captured by the life of this interesting character who "Frankly enjoyed the war…”.
