Masked_HimboAs the icy winds howl across the Eastern Front, Sabaton storms in with a track that doesn’t just retell history — it relives it. “Defence of Moscow” is not a song. It’s a barrage, a sonic reenactment of the Soviet stand against Operation Typhoon in 1941 — a time when the Red Army and the people of Moscow refused to kneel before the might of the Wehrmacht.<br>
<br>
This is a track built on grit, blood, and frozen willpower. It doesn’t glorify war—it honors resistance. It’s less a celebration and more a battle cry for the damned, echoing through time with the weight of history behind every chord.<br>
