"Primo Victoria" is the title track and mission statement of Sabaton's 2005 album, and it charges out of the gate like a cavalry line. Joakim Brodén composed it and wrote the lyrics with bassist Pär Sundström, and the band produced it themselves, with Tommy Tägtgren recording and sharing the mix.
Brodén sings and plays keyboards, Oskar Montelius and Rikard Sundén stack up the guitars and backing shouts, and Daniel Mullback hammers the drums. For the choruses they brought in extra voices, among them Hannele Junkala, Sofia Lundberg, Mia Mullback and Åsa Österlund, which blows the refrain up into a stadium-size chant.
