Countries like Martinique and Guadeloupe are famed for producing spirit distilled from sugarcane juice, known as rhum agricole - French for 'agricultural rum'. In the French Caribbean islands, however, sugarcane juice (sometimes called sugarcane honey) is used instead of molasses. In the Spanish and British Antilles, for example, rum is traditionally distilled from molasses - a by-product of sugar production. The kind of sugar used is one of the key differentiating factors in rum production. It always has a sense of joviality, in part thanks to its Caribbean origins, and also because of the unabashed decadence surrounding a libation made from sugar.
It transforms, transcends and instantly transports the drinker to the sun-washed shores of the West Indies white sands, palm trees and blue seas. Their second album Rock the Rebel/Metal the Devil received platinum status, and their 2010-release Beyond Hell/Above Heaven was subject to widespread international critical acclaim, receiving double platinum in Denmark, platinum in Finland and Germany, and gold in the United States, Sweden, and Austria.Rum is such an evocative spirit. All of their studio albums have been certified gold in Denmark. The band is currently signed to Dutch label Mascot Records and has released six studio albums and one DVD. After selling 1,000 copies of their Beat the Meat demo tape, Volbeat was signed to a record deal by Rebel Monster Records, a sub-label of Mascot Records. The band name “Volbeat” was derived from Dominus’s third album name, which was called Vol.Beat (read as: Volume Beat). In 2001, Poulsen went on to form a new band with some friends and other former Dominus members. In 2000, Poulsen became fed up with the death metal music scene, causing Dominus to break up. Singer Michael Poulsen’s first band was death metal act Dominus. Their current line-up consists of vocalist and guitarist Michael Poulsen, guitarist Rob Caggiano, drummer Jon Larsen and bassist Kaspar Boye Larsen.
They play a fusion of rock and roll, heavy metal, and rockabilly. Volbeat is a Danish rock band formed in Copenhagen in 2001.
