Guitar Gangsters and Cadillac Blood explicit_lyrics

I should clarify! I've come to Volbeat rather late, finding them on YouTube last year, via a friend. I've been buying the albums, starting with Outlaw Gentlemen, in the order I like them most and this is the 4th of the 4 that I've listened to that I've acquired. So, yes, it's their worst yet... And still worth 5* of course.It starts with the usual Western-style slow intro (in this instance, as on OG / SL, a separate track) before ripping into Guitar Gangsters, and then moving through their usual repertoire of pace, power, bounce, energy, change of pace, slightly slower ballady / more sorrowful stuff. Bog-standard Volbeat - bloody good, in other words! Stand-out tracks for me are Still Counting and I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry (which is a definite earworm), but frankly there's nothing duff or even filler-ish on the album. Buy it; it doesn't matter whether it's your first or last Volbeat album!

Great Album from a great band. Turn up the volume and enjoy

What can I say......Volbeat are just the best band I have heard for many many years. I am captivated by all of their albums. Strong, melodic, heavy, just amazing. How Metallica should have been, or how I hoped they would be when Death Magnetic came out.I can't get enough of them. Thanks Planet Rock!

Volbeat is my favourite band and this CD is brilliant. I put it on while I air guitar around the house and while I am travelling to do some more awsome mountain biking. It just puts me in the best of moods. Oh yes.

Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood is the third full-length studio album by the diverse Danish band Volbeat. While the band’s debut went by normally, the band had a big hit in their homeland with ‘The Gardner’s Tale’ and really raised their profile.This third album then had a lot to live up to. Now; I’ve only gotten into Volbeat since this Summer, so I’m putting all that together from interviews and documentaries. But there’s one thing I do know, and that’s what I hear with my own ears. Luckily, they delivered. A beefed up production, more vocal confidence, better lead guitars. This record knocks Volbeat up into a whole new league.Like the band’s debut album, there is a bit more of a Kyuss influence on some of the guitar lines than there would be on later albums (check out the title track). Like all their albums there is a lot of diversity. ‘So Lonesome I could Cry’ has a clear country influence (its a Hank Williams cover). ‘Wild Rover Of Hell’ has a bit of a Metallica vibe to it (well, in a song with the line ”Stereo pumping Metallica tunes, Ride The Lightning oh yeah!” what else could you expect?). ‘Back To Promp’ is less than two minutes long and sounds like a 1950s version of Blink 182’s ‘Dammit.’ There’s also the popular singles “Maybellene I Hofteholder” & “Mary Ann’s Place” which exemplify what the band are all about.There’s basically a lot of different styles going on and a lot of things to like. Its good a good mixture of slick hard rock, chunky metal and fun punk vibes, with that tiny little bit of country and early rock n roll flavour that Volbeat seem to always channel.In terms of quality, its a lot better than the two albums that preceded it. The band really grew as songwriters and performers. The riffs are satisfying, the solos are fun. The vocals are superb too; clean, catchy and memorable. This is a turning point for Michael when he goes from being good to being great. To top it all off the production is just as good as it is on their next album Above Heaven/Beyond Hell. Basically; if you like Volbeat, don’t be without this. Its definitely ranking among the top half of their discography.

Arrived before the advertised date and exactly as expected.

not going to spend time rambling on . just going to say "how the hell have I let 4 albums+ slip by without catching onto these guys."I have now bought 4 albums and they are REDICULOUSLY good .Rock & Roll music with a individuality that is awesome.
