The writing process is well under way and a title is already set:
Front man Michael Poulsen explains: “The Album title is “Beyond Hell/Above Heaven” (no reference to religious beliefs). The title refers to the overall theme of the album, and it continues the storyline from where “Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood” left off…”
The album will be released in September throughout Europe. The band are very excited about the writing process, carrying the songs into both extreme metallic territory, punk variations and some very catchy stuff at the same time. On top Volbeat is bringing in various guest appearances. Michael continues: “We have fast, slow and mid-tempo songs. We still blend different styles of punk, rock’n’roll, rockabilly, metal, heavy metal, thrash metal, country – we still keep it very open, it’s just music! I cannot say too much about it right now, but we’re really excited about it and it’s going to be very, very cool. Again we’re going to give people something they haven’t heard before. We always try to do something special and different on each and every album.”
Watch out for much more news about “Beyond Hell/Above Heaven” upcoming shows and much more on this site…

We’re very pleased to announce that we’re returning to our hometown to play COPENHAGEN LIVE on June 2nd. We haven’t played CPH for a while, so to return to a legendary venue like 10-Øren to perfrom with our label-mates Rammstein will be nothing short of fantastic! Amager will never be the same!
