VOLBEAT Sweeps the U.S.A. Airwaves HARD


Volbeat Elvis metal 'n' rollers VOLBEAT, who combine '50s rock with modern metal, has unleashed their trademark rockabilly sound on unsuspecting Americans recently via their first ever U.S. release, ROCK THE REBEL/METAL THE DEVIL on Mascot Records USA. The first single Sad Man's Tongue is on college and specialty radio nationwide, hitting mainstream in the next few weeks.

Original and different, classic and cutting edge, VOLBEAT is comprised of vocalist/guitarist Michael Poulsen, guitarist Thomas Bredahl, bassist Anders Kjølholm and drummer Jon Larsen. Already endorsed by Vans, Eastpak, Gibson, In Tune Guitar Picks, De Palma and Dean Markley, VOLBEAT is intent on earning the adoration of American fans from coast to coast.

In their native Denmark, ROCK THE REBEL/METAL THE DEVIL has been certified platinum. Further solidifying their success, VOLBEAT was nominated once at the 2007 MTV European Music Awards and four times at this year's annual Danish Music Awards (the Danish Grammy Awards equivalent) – where ROCK THE REBEL/METAL THE DEVIL was named album of the year.

America is about to learn what Europe is already well aware of – VOLBEAT rocks! ROCK THE REBEL/METAL THE DEVIL out now on Mascot Records U.S.A.
