"Servant of the mind" CD by Volbeat
Article description
Comes in a jewel case.
Finally, the wait is over: Volbeat announce their eighth studio album, 'Servant of the Mind'.
For 'Servant of the Mind', Volbeat once again combine their unique mix of Heavy Metal , psychobilly, and punk'n'roll with Michael Poulsen's flair for storytelling and his exceptional skills as a songwriter.
To announce the album, Volbeat release a new single into the world: in the hymn-like 'Shotgun Blues', Poulsen tells of ghostly experiences when moving into a new home. 'Every time you move into a house, you bring dead people with you,' he explains. 'I sometimes experience really strange things there... not completely of this world.'
In many of the new songs, Volbeat tell elaborate and fascinating stories. For example, 'The Sacred Stones' tells of an 'earthly being that has given in to the dark side. It is now on a mission and comes into contact with dark forces and fallen angels.' The track 'The Devil Rages' explores the idea that the devil takes on a human form. The opening track 'Temple of Ekur' returns to the ancient themes that were already present in earlier songs such as 'The Gates of Babylon', while 'Lasse's Birgita', the epic finale of the album, tells of the first witch burnings in Sweden in 1471.
The upcoming work 'Servant of the Mind', written and recorded during the pandemic shutdown, takes a more introspective approach, but does not hold back and sounds just as loud and driving as previous records.
