Volbeat – Michael Poulsen (guitars/vocals), Jon Larsen (drums), Rob Caggiano (guitars) and Kaspar Boye Larsen (bass) – are two decades deep into a career that has found them sharing stages with genre legends like Black Sabbath, Metallica, Motorhead, Slipknot, Megadeth, Anthrax and more. They have racked up nearly three billion cumulative streams over the course of their career, notched a Best Metal Performance Grammy nomination for “Room 24 (feat. King Diamond)” from 2014’s acclaimed (and gold-selling) Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies, and have grabbed multiple Danish Music Awards.

Since forming in 2001, Volbeat has gone from the clubs of Copenhagen to headlining stages around the world, including the famed 50,000 capacity Telia Parken stadium in Denmark (becoming the only domestic artist to ever sell out the venue). Over the course of eight record-breaking albums the band has picked up #1 songs (including ten #1s on the US Mainstream Rock chart and counting, the most of any band based outside of North America), multi-platinum certifications, awards, and accolades all over the planet. Previous studio album, Rewind, Replay, Rebound, was released in 2019, and gave the group their highest national album chart position in the UK then (#7), spawning the hit singles “Last Day Under The Sun,” “Die To Live (feat. Neil Fallon)” and “Leviathan.” A live album featuring songs recorded during the subsequent world tour, Rewind, Replay, Rebound: Live in Deutschland, was released digitally in November 2020. They also contributed a cover of “Don’t Tread On Me” to The Metallica Blacklistwith all proceeds from the track benefiting the All Within My Hands Foundation and the Børne Cancer Fonden of Denmark. Latest album Servant Of The Mind, written and recorded during the shutdown and quarantine necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic, is out now via EMI Records and showcases Volbeat’s distinctive and engrossing sound, blending fiery rhythm and vocalist Poulsen’s storytelling flair.
