In addition to the songs used for the album, Volbeat recorded a cover version of the song "Angelfuck" by the US horror punk band Misfits, which the band has already played several times at concerts. Mixed and mastered was Beyond Hell / Above Heaven in the Baby Factory Studios in Copenhagen. Hansen had also produced the three previous albums. Produced was Beyond Hell / Above Heaven again by Jacob Hansen in the Hansen Studios in the Danish town of Ribe. The song “Who They Are” had the working title “The Slayer Song” at times due to its harsh sound. When it comes to guitar riffs, the band was more oriented towards their debut album The Strength / The Sound / The Songs. According to singer Michael Schøn Poulsen, the band had "ventured further in every respect so that it wouldn't get boring for the musicians and the fans". A harmonica can be heard in the song “ Heaven Nor Hell ”. Musically, the band had expanded their style slightly to include elements of alternative rock and death metal. The second time, Volbeat received the offer to go on tour as the opening act for Metallica. The first time the band felt they weren't ready to record the songs. The studio date for the recordings had to be postponed twice. Poulsen gathered ideas during the bus rides or during the sound checks before the performances.Īlthough he described the process as a stressful challenge in an interview, more songs were created than were used for the album. Most of the songs for the fourth studio album were created on the various tours that Volbeat played for the previous album Guitar Gangsters & Cadillac Blood. However, only two of the early drafts made it onto the album. In autumn 2009 the singer and guitarist Michael Schøn Poulsen started working on the new album. By April 2016, over 1.5 million copies of the album had been sold worldwide. The album was nominated internationally for the Echo in the group rock / alternative category. The album received gold records in Finland, Sweden and the USA. In Denmark, Germany and Sweden, the album was each with double platinum and Austria certified platinum. It was released on Septemvia Vertigo Records and reached number one on the Danish, Finnish and Swedish album charts.
