Metal is made to crush skulls, but Volbeat’s brand of metal is something else entirely. If the Vikings were still around, they would bump Volbeat while pounding mead, house wenches, and over-sized legs of Mutton. Their debut “The Strength/The Sound/The Songs” is a 15 song journey into good time, face-mashing yet accessible metal that is clearly designed for moshing, fighting, and partying. Volbeat are Danish, which probably explains the aura of kick-a$s surrounding their songs. One thing I can tell you is that Scandinavians know how to party. Kind of like how Freddy Krueger is the son of a hundred maniacs, Volbeat are the sons of a hundred musicians who know how to rock. More complex, they sound like the result of Glen Danzig, Elvis Presley, Clutch, Metallica, and Johnny Cash having a disgusting gangbang with a willing groupie. Volbeat doesn’t waste much time in delivering the goods in a face-caving manner. We can invent some big words and flashy sentences to describe the fist-pumping energy Volbeat transcends, but it’s much easier and more succinct to simply say that they absolutely, positively, without retort, f*cking rock. To say Volbeat rocks hard is an understatement of proportions similar to saying Lindsey Lohan is a disheveled crack whore. The only difference is listening to Volbeat is unequivocally awesome these experiences are manifested in a good way, namely, the way of Rawk. The almost uncontrollable urge to drink is aligned with the substantial feeling of having the $hit kicked out of you (metaphorically speaking), and of having your balls firmly entrenched in a blender with the “on” button permanently engaged.
When I listen to Volbeat, I am oddly and perhaps sickeningly reminded of being married. Volbeat kicks off their Wait A Minute… Let’s Tour run, their first US tour in two years, tonight (Friday, September 24th) at Atlanta’s The Tabernacle.Review Summary: Kind of like how Freddy Krueger is the son of a hundred maniacs, Volbeat are the sons of a hundred musicians who know how to rock. Weird stuff happens when I move into a (new)house… it's very otherworldly.” He said, “Every time you move into a house, you bring dead people with you.
Volbeat has also released a new single called “Shotgun Blues,” which Poulsen wrote about the the paranormal events he recently experienced after moving into a new home.
If you go back to the first record and compare it to where we are now, you can hear how the band has developed its style, while keeping the signature sound.” There are a lot of Volbeat signatures in it. I was in a good place and mood while at home, and had a captive audience of myself. The new album will be available in standard CD, deluxe 2LP vinyl and a deluxe digital edition.īandmember Michael Poulsen said, “I wrote the whole album in three months. Volbeat will release their eighth studio album, Servant Of The Mind, on December 3rd.
