Fucking Fantastic Album

If you think they are too soft, then check the Thrash inspired ¨Who They Are¨ and the heavy ¨Evelyn¨ with Barney on guest vocals, 7 shots with Mille. & last but not least The Mirror And The Ripper

And if you don't like the album after that, then give up on likeing this album

Thought id give them another shot, but I hate this freeking band. I dont understand the uproar over them....the first thing that comes to mind whenever I hear this is the music played in American Pie (and similarly terrible adolescent teen hormonal movies).

I have to agree with Valaskjalf. This is just crap... I even saw them live at the Sonisphere Festival... american wanna-be crap.

Yeah, Volbeat to me sounds just like 90s punk rock with a metal drummer, and some metal and country influences. First Time I heard them, i thought the lead singer sounded like a mix between Danzig and Elvis lol.

This is my favourite Volbeat record. A bit too punky for my liking, though.
