God Of Angels Trust CD

Volbeat's "God Of Angels Trust" CD is driven by a raw intensity unmistakable in every track. The album slams open with "Devils are Awake," a jagged melody slicing through the air. Its tracks, such as "In the Barn of the Goat Giving Birth to Satan's Spawn in a Dying World of Doom," flaunt a grandiose theatricality that cuts both ways: ambitious yet absurd. This is metal that bears its weight unapologetically, and it won't be brushed off lightly.
