Danish metal rock ‘n’ rollers VOLBEAT have issued the following update:
“VOLBEAT has decided to part ways with Thomas Bredahl.
“Being in a band is in many ways similar to a marriage with ups and downs. At times you can work it out and sometimes you need to go separate ways…
“We want to thank him for the work he has put in for VOLBEAT and we wish him all the best in the future.
“VOLBEAT will play all shows as announced, either as a trio or with a replacement guitarist. Right now we’ll take a well-deserved break and we will be back on the road in January, ready to rock the Gigantour and Wacken.”
Bredahl had been a member of VOLBEAT since 2006.
VOLBEAT has just released “Live From Beyond Hell/Above Heaven” via Vertigo/Universal on double DVD, Blu-ray, limited double DVD + audio CD, CD, digital download and VOD.
With engines revving, VOLBEAT takes “Live From Beyond Hell/Above Heaven” into overdrive and jacks up their musical ride with footage from their sold-out show in front of 10,000 fervent fans at the Forum in Copenhagen, to the House of Blues in Anaheim, California and the Rock Am Ring show in Germany. It’s VOLBEAT conquering performance territory Stateside and across Europe, showing fans that the band is just as comfortable, charged and throttled in front of an audience as intimate as 1,100 or as vast as 80,000.
Filmed on 11 cameras, leaving no musical stone unturned, this is as close to a backstage pass as you can get. And joined by such musical greats as Scott Ian and Rob Caggiano of ANTHRAX/THE DAMNED THINGS, Michael Denner (MERCYFUL FATE), Mille Petrozza (KREATOR), Jacob Øelund, and L.G. Petrov (ENTOMBED), viewers also witness VOLBEAT in a rock and metal Hall Of Fame.
