VOLBEAT, the Danish rock and roll outfit featuring Michael Poulsen, Jon Larsen, and Kaspar Boye Larsen, have dropped a new single, “In The Barn Of The Goat Giving Birth To Satan’s Spawn In A Dying World Of Doom,” complete with a video directed by Shan Dan.
This is the second preview from their upcoming ninth album, God Of Angels Trust, which will be released on June 6 via Vertigo/Universal. The band’s latest offering boasts a memorable title and a compelling sound.
Poulsen says about the song: “I had so much fun writing these lyrics. It’s about the outcasts and fallen angels of God — all the angels that were cast out of Heaven. And I’m being told to collect them in this big wagon and bring them to a barn.”
“There’s a ritual going on where the fallen angels are being sacrificed to Satan’s spawn to create soldiers for a new dark kingdom. So, instead of inviting my lady out to go to the cinema, I say, ‘I have something better. You have to see what’s going on in this barn… we’ve been invited to see the birth of Satan’s spawn and watch the world go down. How about that?”
“I think some people will read the lyrics and go, ‘What’s wrong with this dude?’ But, it’s all for fun. It’s like a silly horror movie. Or is it?”
VOLBEAT is set to embark on their extensive “Greatest Of All Tours Worldwide” throughout 2025, kicking off in June. Their itinerary includes a co-headlining Canadian leg with THREE DAYS GRACE and WAGE WAR, followed by U.S. headline dates featuring HALESTORM and THE GHOST INSIDE, and a European run with support from BUSH and GEL.
