My subjective answer is that if you're not a hardcore fan of the band laying on completeness value (and therefore probably the album anyway has), or if the Euro grade should not be too slack, then not necessarily because there were alternatives ,
This spews no misunderstanding: it concerns with "Primo Victoria" by no means a somehow weaker output from the year 2011 for all trademarks, now widely appreciated for Sabaton are (or indeed in some encounter rejection), are also on this album yet. So great melodies, bombastic riffs, pounding rhythms - Primo Victoria rocking definitely officially and fun!
BUT: the live concert classics are here actually only my three personal Anspieltipps in the form of the title track and "Into The Fire" and "Panzer Battalion" represented, whereas a live on truly indispensable albums such as "The Art Of War" itself Anthem to the other strings ("Ghost Division", "40: 1", "Cliffs of Gallipoli", "Price Of A Mile" etc ...). So if it should go for new fans of the band to the question, the most important albums nachzukaufen, then would rather almost exclusively represented at "The Art Of War" in one piece songs that even today the Sabaton newbie still on every concert to ears are cut and stick in the same.
In this respect, I can indeed a strong buy recommendation for "Primo Victoria" speak to anyone who stylistically with high class Power Metal can do something, but all Sabaton novices would initially rather the two studio albums "The Art Of War" and the gigantic "Carolus Rex "put your heart, because on these two parts of the" Anthem density "is even higher my subjective opinion, as on" Primo Victoria ".
Or as a general alternative instead of the entire studio back catalog: "Swedish Empire Live" - because on this successful and current live recording almost all the hits are represented, who so calmly Sabaton over the years from the stack - and I here however urgently to luxury -Edition incl. several DVDs or equal installments as Blue-Ray would.
Otherwise: just in the three Anspieltipps "Primo Victoria", "Into The Fire" and listen "Panzer Battalion" and decide for yourself ...
