Volbeat has been officially bassist-less ever since Anders Kjølholm left the group, but that didn't slow 'em down much. The group will be releasing its new album Seal The Deal And Let's Boogie on June 3 and its debut single got some really positive press, and adding on to that good news is the addition of a new bassist!

Welcome Kaspar Boye Larsen, who played with melodic death metal band Withering Surface from 1994 to 2004, and has since played with groups such as The Kandidate and Thorium.

”We are happy to announce that Kaspar Boye Larsen is officially now the new bass player in VOLBEAT. We just got back from a great US tour and Kaspar showed as we expected that he's the real deal. The fans love him and we can't wait for the rest of you to hook up with us as a full band again on our coming shows.”
