Danish hard rock force Volbeat have announced the June 6th arrival of their ninth full length studio record, God of Angels Trust. The album marks the follow-up to 2021's Servant of the Mind and finds the band once again connecting with longtime producer and frequent collaborator, Jacob Hansen.
Spearheaded by songwriter and sound architect Michael Poulsen, the album is introduced by the charging first single, "By.A Monster's Hand" - showcasing driving guitars, a mid-paced intensity and anthemic vocal command of Poulsen at the helm.
Aligning with the immediacy and intensity of the introductory single, Poulsen explained how the latest offering from Volbeat was very much about trusting his instinct and not dissecting the songwriting process as much as previous releases. "In the past, I've taken a long time to write and obsessed over so many elements of the songs before finishing them," says Poulsen.
"This time, I wanted to make a Volbeat record without thinking too much about it. Instead of following any kind of structure I said, 'Okay, there are no 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."
Along with the news of the pending album, Volbeat have unveiling an extensive itinerary of tour dates under the banner, "Greatest Of All Tours Worldwide". The run of live dates kicks off in June with a co-headlining run of Canada opposite Three Days Grace with special guests Wage War. Volbeat then begins a headlining stretch in the U.S. with special guests Halestorm and The Ghost Insid. From there, Volbeat takes on Europe and the UK with special guests Bush and Gel.
