Wednesday, 3rd July 2013 By Dead Rhetoric

CIVIL WAR, the new symphonic power metal band from ex-SABATON members, Rikard Sundén, Oskar Montelius, Daniel Mullback and Daniel Myhr, along with frontman, Nils Patrik Johansson (ASTRAL DOORS), and bass player, Stefan “Pizza” Eriksson (VOLTURYON), is streaming the song “Gettysburg,” in celebration of the battle’s 150th anniversary. The song comes off the band’s new album, The Killer Angels, and can be streamed via the Soundcloud clip below.

Comments the band: “The Battle of Gettysburg. 150 years have passed since it took place, but still today it’s one of the greatest battles in history,” commented the band. “This is a song that reflects the memories and thoughts of one single soldier. His name is unknown, maybe he never existed. But if he did, maybe this is what went through his mind. We give you the song, ‘Gettysburg.'”
