I got introduced to the band Sabaton by a 20-year-old. Heavy metal based on historical events. YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjQhd1APsd5NQhiVZV7GYzg
A couple of my favorite songs:
Father. Fritz Haber was a German Nobel Prize winning chemist who created the Haber-Bosch method for making ammonia gas from nitrogen and hydrogen gas. Great for making fertilizer... and explosives. He also is known as "the father of chemical warfare" for developing and weaponizing poisonous gas for use in combat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxkeOkaVRLo
Winged Hussars. Ah, the glorious Winged Hussars, the Polish cavalry that swept in to save Vienna in 1683. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CxlRJsQ7p2k
Uprising. The Warsaw Uprising. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lzeNBRbWXpI
Oh, there is also the Sabaton History Channel on YouTube that explores the history behind the songs: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=sabaton+history
