Dutch Heavy Metal Band ‘Lord Volture’

Lord Volture is a heavy metal band hailing from The Netherlands that was founded by vocalist David Marcelis. After an explosive take-off in 2010 with the release of their debut album Beast Of Thunder and an intensive touring schedule, the band rapidly rose to find themselves in the frontier of Dutch Heavy Metal. The album thundered through the global metal community and reviewers worldwide count Beast Of Thunder among the major releases of 2010. Lord Volture’s sound and style is said to resemble US power metal masters Jag Panzer, Iced Earth, Cage and Vicious Rumors. Check out the song ‘Minutes To Madness‘ below.

With the release of the band’s second full-length record Never Cry Wolf in autumn 2011 Lord Volture progresses to the next level without abandoning their traditional sound nor the uncompromising energy that characterizes the debut album. Containing upbeat thrash tracks, grandiloquent epics as well as catchy rockers the new album is even more dynamic in nature. The tradition to invite a renown guest set on Beast Of Thunder with Annihilator’s Jeff Waters is being continued on Never Cry Wolf with no one less than Cage singer Sean Peck. But also the Lord Volture members themselves show their worth. The piercing mid and high register of singer David, the shredding solos of guitar duo Paul Marcelis and Leon Hermans and the pounding rhythm machine of bass player Simon Geurts and drummer Frank Wintermans deliver all ingredients for the ultimate metal sound. For all who bear a heart of steel, Lord Volture is a definite MUST!
