94. Volbeat – “Rewind, Replay, Rebound”

Yes, it is low for Volbeat. That’s because this record is distinctly a game of two halves as it could have used some harsh editing.. Lead single ‘Last Day Under the Sun’ is poor and sounds like the Sterophonics. You could have also lost the final three tracks and ended up with a much shorter, sharper, taut and better record. However, when they are good, they are magnificent and ‘Sorry Sack of Bones’, ‘Cheapside Sloggers’ and ‘Pelvis on Fire’ are alone worth the admission prize and manage to justify their inclusion in this list.
