  • Today on Rap Fan Reacts to Sabaton - The Final Solution. I am absolutely heartbroken by the Story of this song. It is something I know a very large amount and this song amplified my feelings playing off that fact. I wasn't prepared to hear this today but i know that it is truly something special. I believe Sabaton is one of the most important bands of the current era. I hope you enjoyed and let me know what you want to see next!

    Fun Fact: Sabaton refuses to play this version of the song live because they feel this is not the song that anyone should be headbanging too or anything, They play this song ONLY acoustically now in order to show more respect
    Also right before the chorus hits, they way they made the drums sounds mimics the sound of a train going down the tracks. Very haunting.

    As a German I need to say, that even if this was at my great-grandparents Time, many of us feel the obligation to carry the memory of this dark times foward, so nothing comparable ever happens again. I feel like every German should visit a KZ once in their Life to feel the anguish of these Places even present decades later, to fullfill this duty of memory.

      It's important that everyone learn about the Holocaust. But it is just as important that everyone, *EVERYONE* learn that not all Germans were supportive of Hitler's Third Reich. Many fought against him and died in camps or prisons themselves, and the majority of the populace did not know about the camps. Everyone needs to learn of heroes who fought; Claus Stauffenberg and fellow co conspirators in the July 20 Plot, Josef Gangl who gave his life defending POWs from Waffen-SS, Oskar Schindler who rescued over 1200 Jews from Auschwitz, etc.
      That particular evil did not belong to a nation or a people. It belonged to an ideology.

    @Jojo: There is a reason why, even today, the Jews still alive always say:
    "Never again. Never forget."
    I'll put it this way: My 10th grade English teacher went to Europe, and visited Dachau. She brought back pictures of the camp. The pictures of the horrors I saw that day hit me so deeply that I wasnt aware of it, until later -- and when it did, I nearly broke down in my history class. In English class, this was paired with the book "Night" by Elie Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor. That book, if you've never read it, will make you awed and angry, and probably filled with sorrow. Though it was one of the darkest chapters of human history, I fully agree:
    Never again. Never forget.

    Additional fact: The famous words at the gate of Auschwitz “work sets you free” was a cruel play on words (found at many other camps as well).
    When liberating Treblinka, another sinister play on words was found; one that made (still makes) people at a complete loss of words.
    The wayward to the inevitable chamber had the word “”Himmelstrasse” on the top of the gate. The word translates to “Heaven’s Road”.

    This is a very deep and educational song. I'm also a history nerd and when I was 15 my school was visited by an Auschwitz survivor (If I recall correctly, his name was Emerich Roth. I may be wrong. It was about 10 years ago.) and we even had the "privilege" to visit Auschwitz. I highly recommend go visit those places.

      Sadly it seems its going to repeat again, maybe nowhere near the cruelty and evil, but back then you really could say the Nazis took the Jews for the thought crime of daring to be Jews, or the myriad others they took for daring to go against the regime. They were first marginalized and treated as outcasts, then their businesses boycotted and their livelihoods dashed and their jobs lost and they were marked to be obvious to others to be avoided, and these days those who disagree with certain parties (its obvious which < party) are being marginalized and treated as outcasts by their woke, many business owners who don't bow get sued or fined heavily for disobeying, jobs were lost when many didn't want to bow to the government saying "its for your own good" once again just as the Nazis did back then, some are publicly canceled or have black marks put on their identity that employers can see and thus overlook a good person for the position, it makes me wonder what the final step will be, once all who disagree with our current growing regime in the West are fully isolated in the coming years and left to waste away what suffering they'll heap upon us or otherwise just work hard to "cleanse" the nation of the dissenters and the ones who have disabilities, like the whole MAID crap now. Imagine world leaders who remember the Holocaust and yet they decide to perform the same things just with better tech and more subtlety and propaganda and distractions so nobody notices what's happening beneath our noses, as well as failing to teach us about the past with the gravitas required to burn it into our minds as a thing to watch out for, fight against and avoid. We're at the beginning right now.

    I've been a LONG time WW2 history nut and Sabaton has taught me things that even I haven't heard about or known of. They are in a unique class of their own who deserve all the heaps of accolades and praises thrown their way. They transcend music, genres, race, religion and politics. They have taken it upon themselves to ensure that we don't forget our past and are not doomed to repeat the tragedies throughout the ages. They are gods amongst moral men and I for one am forever grateful for them spreading the knowledge and experiences of our forefathers and ancestors.

    I had the honor of visiting Dachau. We were the first group in morning. So few people in the camp so we had a lot of open space. I saw the place with branches permanently bent. They shot people in the back of the head there. Then the firing squad field. The guard towers. I never felt so packed and watched in an open area. The gas chamber wall was rough unsmooth. I felt suffocation there. Just packed among the souls. The thousands of souls of the fallen are there. It's a place of utter disparity. I still think if anyone gets the chance, take it. You'll feel something so powerful and somber that nothing can match that kind of evil that also resides in the trees, the buildings, just everything.

    to me the instruments fading at the end to just vocals has always conveyed the death of hope since most of their songs are celebratory in nature the removal of the music makes the final chorus sound that much darker and the last fade out is that single scared voice being lost in the darkness forever
    and now I need to go listen to something upbeat
    sabaton: swedish pagans - the perennial sabaton party song and Joakim's hatred of it is mostly an act
    babymetal: oh majinai - Joakim growling plus babymetal's energy ends up with the ultimate pirate song

    Music invokes feelings, sometimes happy and sometimes genuinely sad. Especially when the song is covering a topic like this one. Feeling distraught after hearing this song only proves that you are a good person. Imagine leaving this with a smile on your face.. No, it's a heavy subject, but if we do not continue to expose the ugly truths of history we run the risk of them disappearing in time, and we can't allow that to happen.

    Its a very heavy topic but im glad its one that Sabaton covered and one you decided to react to. I like that Sabaton makes a reference to other groups who suffered in the Holocaust, like one I wasn't aware of was Jehovah Witness who were persecuted for how their faith didn't fit in with National Socialism. It's interesting cause unlike other groups of people who were perscuted, they were given the chance to renounce their faith and return to normal life, to which the vast majority of them refused. Its one of the reason I love Sabaton, epic music! and free history lessons!
    Also another side note, the guitar rift in this is played in a way that's sounds like a train travelling along track's.

    This song is one that you just kinda...just sits and takes in. Its a dark thing to listen to, when you know its context.
    On a school trip many many many years ago, I went to see the camp in Prague. I hated being there becouse the feelings were so intense. So treated it like a boring playground, but I just stuck by my teachers and did the tour and left.
    I then later found out that, the one in Prague was considered a luxusury, compared to other camps.
    I have seen them on Google Maps and still the intense energy of those places, flows thru the screen. Im not sure I wanna visit those places, but its a part of history that cant be forgotten.

    If you're looking to react to more Sabaton I'd recommend profusely, "Cliffs of Gallipoli"
    It's a song about the battle of Gallipoli, where ANZAC forces tried to storm Turkey in an effort to break the stalemate WW1 had become, The battle has since been seen as a senseless waste of lives, yet there is no bitterness between Turkey and Australia as a result of it, the men on both sides were both seen as young boys that senselessly and needlessly lost their lives
    To Quote Turkey's first president, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, speaking on the matter
    "Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours... You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well."

Another great (not war related song) is Empire of the Clouds, which tells the story of the R-101 airship and it's 18 minutes long! It's just epic. Another long song is Rime of the Ancient Mariner at 13 minutes, which tells the Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
