    Yes it was "Carol Of The Bells", but in a minor key. Love Floor Jansen's vocals in the ending credits, she is married to the drummer I believe. They sing about historical war events, but they don't take sides. They sing of valor and injustice. I recommend the animated story version of "The Night Witches". If history was taught like this, a lot more people would remember it. The way they say "The snow turns the ground white." to me sounds like they are saying "The snow turns burgund white.", maybe on purpose.

    I'm pretty sure the carol of the bells motif is inverted in Christmas truce, ending on the low more sombre note as if to signal that the day after these men would be back to killing one another and this would go on for another 4 years rather than the bright an hopefully note the motif ends on in the actually carol of the bells. Its a really simple but wonderfully clever bit of composition that means the whole things still manages to both sound distinctively Christmassy (as carol of the bells is basically the global culturally accepted Xmas Leitmotif at this point) and hopeful whilst just subtly hinting at the horror that is to come. All achieved by just flipping some of the notes upside down

They are a exceptional metal band. They even have Sabaton History channel explaining the stories behind a lot of their songs. Take it from this very old Metal rock head, Check out 40-1 live in Woodstock Poland, or Swedish Pagans ( just put Sabaton Swedish Pagans with Cello). En Livid I Krig with English lyrics.

I knew I needed to get the right spelling for the site, because I’m old and can’t send you the links but I can’t spell either! Oh well I know you will become one of Sabaton’ s biggest supporters because they mix emotions, with great lyrics, a great riff, killer drums and a metal rock voice telling stories that are true! It’s why I love Metal/ rock for over 60 years. It’s not just tugging on the heart it’s beating and driving not just your heart but your soul to the edge and back again. Most Metal rock heads already know that metal is human emotions. So it’s great that your seeing that Metal is not just just loud and noisy as you previously thought but a fast & hard journey that takes you on a marvelous sometimes uncomfortable journey but you can’t wait for the next trip! Rock On Stay Safe!🙏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

    I loved your reaction and analysis. Thanks. In response to your request, this song is both representative and, at the same time, not representative of Sabaton's music. Their themes are always focused on military history and they always showcase valor and humanity. They do a lot of research so their stories are historically accurate. They even have a separate You Tube channel discussing the historical background of their compositions. However, the symphonic element you noticed is usually not as prominent in Sabaton's music. It's often there but they are generally heavier and more focused on traditional metal instruments. I'm not enough of a musicologist to name the metal subgenre; others will probably do that.

    Sabaton does history - it's all true stories and they don't "pick sides" and show heroism, valor and mercy by good people in the worst of times. If I may suggest / request - try "No Bullets Fly" (it's 8:50 long - w/Yarnhub) - a true story about valor and mercy. Would you be up to do a reaction to that one?

    Sabaton is an English word with its origins in Provençal. It refers to an armoured boot consisting of solid heel and toe sections with a number of articulated steel strips - called 'lames' - which protect the wearer's feet in battle.

    I think a great representation as to their music (and what type of Rock they are) is Sabaton. Personal recommendation, however, is En Livstid i Krig , filmed live at Gothenburg. Shows just how moving their music can be, if Winter Truce didn't show it enough already!

    Great analysis. Sabatons always great, part history lesson, part metal and they often have very elaborate videos. If you want more from them try either the live version of "En livstid i krig" from Gothenburg (it's in swedish, but there are english subtitles that translate the lyrics) for a fantastic live version, or "To Hell and Back" or "Bismark" for a more "metal" sound. This has replaced Fairytale of New york as my favourite "Christmas Song" :).

    Not much to add to Troy's comment and your analysis. Spot on. Perhaps that if you have watched the credits to the end you had noticed who sang at the then. She "blow your mind" when singing with Nightwish: Floor, Sabaton drummer Hannes wife. Besides, regarding that sign on the wall behind you (also your reaction to Homefree/Dire Straits: Brothers in Arms) and this song Carl Sagan's famous "Pale Blue Dot" text comes in my mind: "That's here, that's home, that's us .... a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam".

    Sabaton is currently the most successful power metal band. The Symphonic is an evolution, hence the similarities. The main theme of Sabaton is war. As you've seen, they're not just about heroic stories. Again and again they show the downsides or soldiers becoming heroes through "wrong" behavior like here. They also have a history channel, where a historian explains the background of their stories and band members talk about the process of making them. Christmas Truce - December 1914 - Sabaton History 107 [Official] The album was sent during the pandemic and Floor can often be heard in the background. The end credits of this video are also sung by her.
