It's everything that VOLBEAT are all about, but taken even further.' The album title is a phrase that evokes another time, an era when elegant lawbreakers were the rock stars of the day. 'You've got everything - the rockabilly stuff, the melodies, the ultra-heavy stuff, the Western motifs and the big rock songs. 'It's a new vibe for VOLBEAT,' said Poulsen. 'Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies' finds the core trio of Michael Poulsen (vocals/guitar), Anders Kjølholm (bass) and Jon Larsen (drums) joined by former ANTHRAX/ THE DAMNED THINGS guitarist Rob Caggiano, who produced the album with longtime VOLBEAT co-producer Jacob Hansen.

Elsewhere, 'Room 24', featuring King Diamond, was inspired by a terrifying experience in a hotel room somewhere in the heart of America. 'The Nameless One' is a cautionary tale of dabbling in the dark arts, featuring the mysterious and sinister character of the title. Some are real - like the noble lady outlaw Pearl Hart, who held up a stagecoach to buy medicine for her dying mother, or Lola Montez, the erotic dancer with her infamous 'Spider Dance,' or ' Black Bart,' the gentleman highwayman who wrote poems for the people he robbed. Seamlessly bringing together all of the band's influences and reshaping them into something gleaming and new, 'Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies' is a record that's rich with stories and characters woven throughout its lyrics.

'Lola Montez' comes off VOLBEAT's fifth studio album, 'Outlaw Gentlemen & Shady Ladies', which was released in North America on April 9 via Vertigo/ Republic Records/ Universal Music. The performance clip was filmed on June 8 at the Rock Am Ring festival in Nürburgring, Germany. 'Lola Montez', the new video from Danish/American metal rock 'n' rollers VOLBEAT, can be seen below.
