Joachim Broden Biography

The story of the Sabaton group in the quotes of the vocalist Yoakim Broden Vit, Borodka, and a crest. Smart eyes with a cunning and a demon. Erudist, intelligence and sea of ​​irony. Yes, he is like that. And this is what he spoke about himself and about the group in different years. When we started, such as “Guys, it's time to write a demo”, we thought to find a vocalist for the group, but then we somehow scored.

Like, we have been signing up - and then we’ll look for it. And then - rrrasy! Well, later, we will deal with the vocalist later, it’s not so, it is necessary to rehearse all that. And there to sign up again. In short, I myself did not notice how I got stuck in the role of a frontman. And in m about approximately it began to turn out normally. I stopped sounding shit.

Sometimes I listen to old demons - and yes, only with me can I already listen normally. The inserts on my vest are metal. But there is a real Kevlar vest. We once played on the American military base-and they gave me real army uniforms! We write songs on historical topics, but rarely consult with scientists. Here, they used their help when working on Carolus Rex.

The Swedish Great Power is a long and difficult story. You will not find documentary video materials or notes of witnesses about this period. Ordinary soldiers did not know how to write and read, so all that remained in the legacy is, for example, the testimonies of officers who took part in the thirty -year war. However, the facts quoted by them vary. Therefore, in order not to overwhelm history, we consulted with the professor: he recommended more or less reliable sources of information.

However, it is always difficult with wars. Take even the Second World War, which, it would seem, everything has long been known. Of course, we are able to distinguish facts from fiction - but everything depends on the source of information. Try to find out the number of dead! Americans, British and Russians will give you completely different numbers! Ideas for songs of Coat of Arms and Heroes albums sent us fans.

They wrote letters, gave books on the tour. We did not even know many of these stories. I don’t know what we will write about. We can do anything, while it is about military history! On the road we spend about days a year. From the show in 12 months, depending on whether we write the next album or not. To kill time, I often watch films about the war. Documentary, scientific and educational.

I'm a fan. The matter went so far that when some militar-spasial, about Hitler or like that, I most often feel disappointment. Nothing new! By the way, when I am on a tour, I usually do not listen to metal. Enough the soundtracks of colleagues in tour and other things. In my stage image, I probably, a little more, stole the chips from every frontman, whom I saw in my life.

Thanks to him, I learned a lot. How not to disrupt the voice during the concert, how to move on stage, how to communicate with the public. But he, in turn, was stolen by Bruce Dikinson! .. In America, we are still ten times less popular than in Europe. On a good evening in Europe, we can collect a person, and in the States a good result will be something paradoxical in the fact that we laugh at concerts, have fun, joke between songs in which very serious things are sung.

For example, we have The Final Solution about the Holocaust. We play it on the Hadliner show, talk about the half -million dead, and then, in a pause between this song and the next one, I injure the jokes and endure. But what to do. We are serious in our work, however, coming to the concert, I do not want to grieve for losses. I want to sausage, drink beer, enjoy a good company and good music.

Some still consider us Nazis. And I don’t even know, laugh or cry about this! Guys, we have songs about the events that took place years ago - well, why the hell are everyone climbing on this stupid association? I watched fan clips that people lay out on YouTube. I’m not looking for specially - but sometimes it happens. There are good ones, there are frankly bad ones.

In general, I don't care. Let them do what they want, because people did not try to make money using our songs. There are several ways to bring the wrath of our lawyers: firstly, try to get illegal income from our work; And, secondly, try to involve us in any political or religious actions.
