Description

Volbeat will release their ninth studio album, God Of Angels Trust, on June 6 via Vertigo/Universal. The Danish band, consisting of Michael Poulsen (vocals, guitar), Jon Larsen (drums), and Kaspar Boye Larsen (bass), took a fresh approach to songwriting for this record, intentionally stepping away from traditional songwriting rules.

To support the new album, Volbeat will perform in Rotterdam Ahoy on October 22, with Wage War and GEL as support acts.

Formed in 2001 by Michael Poulsen in Denmark, Volbeat is known for blending heavy metal, rockabilly, and hard rock, influenced by icons like Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, and Metallica. Their breakthrough came in 2007 with the album Rock the Rebel/Metal the Devil, which topped the Danish charts.

Volbeat achieved global success with albums like Beyond Hell/Above Heaven (2010) and Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies (2013), featuring hits that landed at No. 1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock chart. The band has also collaborated with artists such as King Diamond and Rob Caggiano.
