Today, multi-platinum Danish band Volbeat share their new music for “Becoming,” from their album Servant Of The Mind (Republic Records). The music video captures the band on the road during the last three Volbeat tours, and was edited and directed by Brittany Bowman.
Michael Poulsen says of “Becoming,” “it is a tribute to the mighty Entombed and our good friend L.G. Petrov, who sadly passed away. When we were about to record “Becoming,” it has that opening riff that is really inspired by Entombed, and we thought ‘why not use that same Boss HM-2 pedal on it that Entombed was known for using.’ That pedal is the signature Swedish distorted guitar sound, and is sounds disgustingly good. After we reorded the song we got the news of L.G.’s passing, and decided to dedicate the song to him since Entombed was the inspiration behind that riff. ‘Becoming‘ is for you, my dear friend. Cheers!”
