VOLBEAT TO SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL 2014
Danes Volbeat have, among many other things, made two important points. Originality pays off, and even in our times an artist can still become really, really big. In their native country, Volbeat made it big even with their debut “The strength/The sound/The songs” (2005). Since then, their career has not suffered one commercial setback. Each consecutive album – “Rock the rebel/Metal the Devil” (2007), “Guitar gangsters & Cadillac blood” (2008), “Beyond hell/Above heaven” (2010) an “Outlaw gentlemen & shady ladies” (2013) – has outsold its predecessor. Today, Volbeat are big on both sides of the Atlantic and boast arena status in Europe. So what's their secret? Firstly, their musical recipe is ingenious and palatable – Johnny Cash meets Metallica, with all kinds of spicings from groove-based rock and brutal metal. Secondly, main man Michael Poulsen (ex-Dominus) is both a great songwriter and a brilliant frontman with a great knack for keeping a crowd spellbound. The SRF audience, who has long watched the band grow, is very aware of this – and in the SRF 2014 website poll Volbeat is the fourth most wanted band (beaten only by the giants AC/DC, Metallica and Iron Maiden). Many must have predicted it, now it will happen. Michael Poulsen, guitarist Rob Caggiano (ex-Anthrax), bassist Anders Kjølholm and drummer Jon Larsen are one of the main attractions at SRF 2014, as superstars of the present and the future.
