Form is temporary when class is permanent.
Particularly in the Volbeat camp, because, Servant of the Mind ( EMI ), their twentieth anniversary and eighth studio release, is their best to date. There’s a pervading feeling that age dilutes quality and / or heaviness, yet nothing could be further than the truth. A whole plethora of written-off bands pushing well into their second, third, even fourth, decade with career best releases prove it. The last ten years of evidence proves it. Our staff voted-for album of the year top 3 picks for this year to prove it. At what point do we (I? Is it just me by now…? in which case, I’ll get with the programme asap!) change our default position that bands twenty years deep into their careers shouldn’t be producing their best stuff in a heavy music arena? Cos it’s bollocks.
