    BEAT THIS

    Mar 29, 2022 5 minutes

    In 2020, the Danish rock band Volbeat took a break from touring thanks to the pandemic. Their guitarist Rob Caggiano (formerly of Anthrax) is based in New York, so the other three musicians—bassist Kaspar Larsen, singer/guitarist Michael Poulsen, and drummer John Larsen—continued to rehearse a couple of times a week. As the affable bass player explains, “Michael started bringing a riff or maybe half a song into the rehearsing room, and pretty soon we found out that we were going to do at least an EP. Michael just kept on bringing in new songs, though, and within two or three months, we had 13 or 14 new songs. He was just on fire!”
