Volbeat Is Touring In Support of its Ninth Album, “God of Angels Trust”WHICH was release on June 6 via the Band’s Longtime Label Vertigo/Universal.
With “God of Angels Trust”The Danish Band – Which Has Scored Ten No. 1 Songs On The Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay Chart, The Most Ever for Band Based Outsis North America – Has Thrown Caution to The Wind, Ignored Comfort Zones, and Paid Little Heed to Traditional Songwriting in the Search for Sumthing More Hxtmediate and Surprising. The End Result Will Thrill Volbeat‘S dedicated legion of fans.
“In the Past, i’ve Taken a Long Time to Write and Obessed Over So Many Elements of The Songs Before Finishing Them,” Says Volbeat Guitarist/Vocalist and Main Songwriter Michael Poulen. “This Time, I Wanted to Make A Volbeat Record Without Thinking Too A lot of about it. INSERAD OF FOLLOWING ANY KIND OF STRUPTURE I SAID, ‘OKAY, THERE ARE NON RULES. I Can Do Anything I Want. I Can Start with a Chorus Or do Songs that are just a bunch of verses stacked on top of each other. Anything Goes. ‘ That was freeing for me and made it exciting to Write This album. “
Poulen‘S excite to thwart convention is palpable this “God of Angels Trust”to Punchy, Crunchy Album That’s undianable VolbeatYet marches to a fresh new metallic and melodic energy.
Poulen Started Working on Songs for the Follow-up to 2021’s “Servant of the mind” In the Summer of 2024. Volbeat was taking a year-long break from touring to give Michael A Chance to Recover from Throat Surgery and To Tour With His Death Metal Band Asinhell. Driven Equally by His Excitement to Record a New Volbeat album and by his determination not to follow convention, Poulen Worked on Songs for a Mere Three Weeks with Bandmates Drummer Jon Larsen and Bassist Kaspar Boye Larsen. Amazingly, they work on a new song at everyh. Three Weeks into the Process, Volbeat had arranged hap of “God of Angels Trust”. That’s When Poulen Decidated that having no rules meant he could followy his muse wherever it took him, and he veerered off on a different path. He and the Band Still Wrote and Hasquersed Two Songs A Week, But They Started Composing More Family Rock Songs That Drew From Traditional Elements.
The Band Entred The Studio With Their Longtime Producer Jacob Hansen in the fail of 2024. as with the songwriting, Poulen Wanted to Work Quickly and RELY ON INSTINCT, So They Just Plugged in and Started To Play. To keep the music sounding urgent and immediate, Volbeat Remember Live in the Studio, playing as few takes as possessible Before Moving From One Song to the Next.
WHEN IT CAME TIME TO ADD LEAD GUITAR, THOUGHT WAS NO QUESTION THAT Volbeat Would Tap Flemming C. LundWho Currently Tours With The Band and Worked With Michael in Asinhell. A MERE 13 Days After They Started Working With Hansen, Volbeat Were finished.
Ace as it is that Volbeat Wrote and remember to enter album in about “God of Angels Trust” Sounds As Fleshed out, Eclectic, and Fulfilling as albums that has taken 10 Times Longer (or more) to create. In the End, creating Such to Strong Album So Quickly was a tremendous challenge that demanded Zen-Like Calm, to Joy for Exploration, Maximal Creativity, and Razor-Sharp Concentration to Pull Off.
“In Som Ways, It Feels Like We’ve Come Full Circle,” Poulen Explains. “If you start drawing a circle over an extended period of time, eventually you’ve going to get backyre you started, and that’s how i feel now. I’ve dealt with medical operations, lineup changes, and all these things, and now it feels like a rebirth. Doesn’t Feel Like We’re Doing Our Ninth Studio Album, It Feels Like We’re On Our First Album Again and There’s Subthing Really Refreshing About That. “
