VOLBEAT widmen dem 2021 verstorbenen Sänger Lars-Göran „LG“ Petrov ihr neues Musikvideo zum Track ‚Becoming‘ wie Frontmann Michael Poulsen genauer erklärt:

„We were recording Servant Of The Mind in Jacob Hansen’s studio, and we were about to record the song “Becoming.” And it has that opening riff that’s really inspired by the mighty Entombed, and you know, we just talked about why not put that Boss Heavy Metal HM-2W pedal on that Entombed was so well known for, and bands like Dismember and a lot of Swedish Death Metal bands, actually. It’s the signature Death Metal Swedish distorted guitar sound, and it sounds disgustingly good (laughs). So, we thought, why not use that pedal on that riff? So, we did and it just ended up just sounding even more like Entombed, and it turned out to be a really good song and it was probably one of the most heavy riffs in Volbeat. But later on, of course, we were hearing the sad news about LG passing, a very sad day, and I think it is still very sad that he is not around. He was one of our really great friends. I had a lot of great conversations with LG. And we were always hanging out when it was it was possible, and talking and helping each other out, as well. So, we decided, later on, to actually dedicate “Becoming” to LG because of the great inspiration that we had in that song. So, yeah, “Becoming” has somehow become the LG song.“

In wenigen Wochen beginnt auch die „Servant Of The Road Tour“ durch Europa, deren Termine ihr hier findet.

Lyrics:

Every morning is a new day

Where we’re born again

And becoming the center of the bliss

 

Laughing at the past

The skin is shredded in the back

And becoming the pieces of a mask

 

And with the devil’s exit

Oh baby, the flames went higher and higher

Now finding peace and in Zen

And watching the flames go higher and higher

 

Silence is the best

Reply to a fool, remember that

And you’re not falling

But just the better man

 

And with the devil’s exit

Oh baby, the flames went higher and higher

Now finding peace and in Zen

And watching the flames go higher and higher

 

And with the devil’s exit

Oh baby, the flames went higher and higher

Now finding peace and in Zen

And watching the flames go higher and higher

And with the devil’s exit

Oh baby, the flames went higher and higher

Now finding peace and in Zen

And watching the flames go higher and higher
