Volbeat announce new album ‘Rewind, Replay, Rebound’
VOLBEAT have announced a new album!
The new album, titled Rewind, Replay, Rebound, is the seventh effort from the Danish rockers and is scheduled to be released in August this year!
The quartet, Michael Poulsen (guitars/vocals), Rob Caggiano (guitars), Kaspar Boye Larsen (bass), and Jon Larsen (drums), have built upon their distinct, psychobilly, punk-tinged rock ‘n’ roll sound they are known for, while reaching for new creative summits. “The whole point for us going into the studio, is because you still have something to prove – not just for the fans, but mostly for yourself,” says Poulsen. “We would not be able to do this record if it wasn’t for the work we have done in the past. No matter how old the band gets or how many records we do, there is always going to be that signature sound.”
The upcoming album was produced by long-time collaborator Jacob Hansen and co-produced by Rob Caggiano and Michael Poulsen. This marks the first studio album with Kaspar Boye Larsen on bass. To achieve the album’s sound, the band also drew upon a myriad of guests. In addition to again working with backing vocalist Mia Maja on several tracks, they also reunited with the Harlem Gospel Choir. Cheapside Sloggers features a guitar solo by EXODUS and SLAYER guitarist, Gary Holt. CLUTCH vocalist Neil Fallon is featured on Die To Live. Fallon comments, “a few months back, totally out of the blue, I got an email from Michael asking if I’d be interested in singing on a new VOLBEAT track. I was really surprised and even more so flattered. I gave it a listen and was sold. Die To Live is right up my alley because it’s a straight no chaser rock and roller.” Raynier Jacob Jacildo (piano) and Doug Corocran (saxophone) of JD McPherson’s band also lend their talents to the song.
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song from the upcoming album; titled Leviathan.
