VOLBEAT Is Gonna Be Busy This Year

Volbeat is all set to not only release the follow-up to their 2021 record Servant Of The Mind this year, but they’ve also got plenty of shows lined up in support of it!

According to Volbeat vocalist and guitarist Michael Poulsen in a year end video, new Volbeat is due out this year as he begins work on the second Asinhell record. The new Volbeat record will also be their first without guitarist Rob Caggiano since 2010’s Beyond Hell / Above Heaven, as he left the group in 2023.

“Hello people out there. Michael Poulsen from Volbeat and Asinhell here. Happy new year. I’m definitely looking forward for 2025,” said Poulsen. “The new Volbeat record has been recorded. It’s done. It will be out in 2025. You’ll know more information about that early in 2025. Can’t wait. There’s a lot of shows being booked for ’25 with Volbeat everywhere in the world. Can’t wait to meet you all out there. Who knows? I might even start working on new songs for the next Asinhell record, my second band. If you don’t have the first record, check it out. Old-school death metal.

“[Asinhell] had a great tour [in 2024]. We were talking to a lot of new fans and old-school fans. And, yeah, a lot of fans actually ask what we were inspired by, but I’ll get back to that in another video where I’ve been talking about all the old-school death metal that I like so much and old fresh metal and old classic heavy metal from the ’80s, early ’90s. But that’s another video. Right now I just wanna recommend some good new bands that I bought lately or I just bought within a couple of years. There’s so many of them. There’s not room for every vinyl in this video, but I will make a second video so all the bands get the credit that they truly deserve. I think there’s so many good youngsters out there doing amazing job, and actually also some old timers as well.”
