Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies, the fifth studio album from Danish rockers Volbeat, landed on 5 April 2013 on Vertigo and Universal, and it leans hard into Wild West imagery. The title nods to the gunslingers and outlaws of the 19th century, and a song called "Doc Holliday" rides straight into that dust.
Michael Poulsen still sings and plays guitar out front, with Jon Larsen pounding behind him, and this is the first Volbeat record with guitarist Rob Caggiano on board. The formula is the one that made them: rock and roll swagger welded onto heavy metal muscle, Poulsen's croon riding riffs that could level a saloon. The guest turn to remember is "Room 24", which features King Diamond; fans got it as a free download on release day, and it went on to a Grammy nomination for Best Metal Performance.
