Volbeat Tickets Las Vegas

Volbeat is a Danish heavy metal band that formed in Copenhagen.  They play a fusion of rock and roll, heavy metal, punk and rockabilly.  They are inspired by classic rock and roll artists such as Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash, as well as more contemporary hard rock, punk rock, and metal bands, such as AC/DC, Social Distortion, THe Misfits, Napalm Death and Metallica.

Volbeat became a dominant force not only in Danish metal, but in Danish rock as a whole, charting albums and singles on a regular basis.  Band founder, Michael Poulsenbrought together members Franz Gottschalk, Jon Larsen, and Anders Kjolholm in 2001 and released their first demo, Volbeat, a year later.  Reception was lukewarm to the initial release, but the group's second demo, Beat the Meat, was an instant success, getting airplay on European radio.
