You already know that 'Primo Victoria' ranks in my top 20 of all time!
As for 'Fist for Fight' :
Its not as focused as Primo and the lack of direction shows. Most of the songs could have easily been included on 'Primo' and for that reason its very enjoyable!
The one track I have found myself hitting the "next track" button on is "The Hammer Has Fallen" which is a ballad. Now I am not against Ballads per se, but Jocke's voice, I don't think, is really made to be balladesque and so it comes sounding strange and forced.
Overall its very traditional metal, and yet thier music has a fresh quality to it, rough, but melodic, intricate leads, very heavy and best of all the vocalist doesn't growl beyond recognition! Sabaton definately deserves to be exposed to a wider audience! IMO

I agree. Even if I like "Fist For Fight" big time (including 'The Hammer Has Fallen'  ), I admit the album wasn't as focused as "Primo Victoria" is. Then again is perfectly understable since this is their third recording and maturity comes with time and practice.
In anycase like you I believe they deserve way more recognition, I know they have my deepest respect and devotion as a fan, they earned it.

I'll be damned and then some 
Flo you simply rule, I didn't noticed before. I suppose automatically my old brain goes for the right spelling. Very clever from the band, they just won a couple more points with me

Speaking of classic/epic Doom, do you know Forsaken from Malta? Another talented band in the genre, I think their new album should be out by now, I'll have to pick it up.

I do have heard them on a BS tribute. I haven't hear anything original from them. I'll check their availability, thanks for the hint...as always
