The band also announce the first leg of the “Rewind, Replay, Rebound” world tour, with support from Baroness and Danko Jones. “Cheapside Sloggers” features a ripping guitar solo by Exodus and Slayer guitarist Gary Holt. Raynier Jacob Jacildo (piano) and Doug Corocran (saxophone) of JD McPherson’s band also lend their talents to the song. Clutch vocalist Neil Fallon is featured on “Die to Live,” the result of touring together and a love for the singer’s gruff and powerful style. In addition to again working with backing vocalist Mia Maja on several tracks, Volbeat also reunited with the Harlem Gospel Choir. To achieve the album’s sound, the band also drew upon myriad guests. This marks the first studio album with Kaspar Boye Larsen on bass. “Rewind, Replay, Rebound” was produced by longtime collaborator Jacob Hansen and co-produced by Rob Caggiano and Michael Poulsen. “When We Were Kids” finds Volbeat ruminating on immortality and innocence we all naively experience in our youth, while “Rewind the Exit” and “Die to Live” each explore how the pursuit of perfection can be a hollow goal. But he wakes up and feels like he has been given a second chance …” “When I read his book,” Poulsen said, “he went through tough times with alcohol and drugs … He walked into a cave to lay down to die. For this album, the band mines its own personal history and that of its genre: “Last Day Under the Sun” lyrics are inspired by a book about Johnny Cash. At this point in its already storied career, Volbeat has opened for Metallica, Motorhead and Slipknot, garnered a 2014 Best Metal Performance Grammy nomination for “Room 24” and won multiple Danish Music Awards.
