Fresh off the release of punchy, 39-second punk-as-hell quick hit "Parasite," Danish "Elvis metal" quartet Volbeat have dropped a more conventional song, the hooky, rockabilly-infused "Leviathan," along with the single's lively performance video. The cut comes ahead of the group's highly anticipated seventh album Rewind, Replay, Rebound, which is set to be released via Republic Records on August 2nd.
"The whole point for us going into the studio, is because you still have something to prove — not just for the fans, but mostly for yourself," says main man Michael Poulsen. "We would not be able to do this record if it wasn't for the work we have done in the past. No matter how old the band gets or how many records we do, there is always going to be that signature sound." Rewind, Replay, Rebound is available for pre-order on all formats here, including a two-CD deluxe edition, a special deluxe edition box set, and transparent and blue colored vinyl, numbered and limited to 1,000 copies each.
On July 26th, Volbeat are set to join Slipknot on the Iowan metal juggernaut's first-ever Knotfest Roadshow North American Tour, alongside Gojira and Behemoth. Today, Poulsen and Co. announced the first, European leg of the Rewind, Replay, Rebound World tour, with support from Baroness and Danko Jones. Tickets for all dates will go on sale here on Friday, 24th of May at 9 a.m. BST and 10 a.m. CST and 11 a.m. EEST. Members of the band's Rebels and Angels fan club will have access to ticket pre-sales at 1 p.m. local time. See dates below, as well as the cover art and track listing for Rewind, Replay, Rebound.
