Today's Bonus Track is one for fans of progressive music. The band VOLA formed in Copenhagen in 2006 and they blend their love of electronic music with progressive pop metal to create their own unique thing, drawing on influences including Opeth, Meshuggah, Soilwork, Porcupine Tree and many others.
I spoke with Asger of Vola as the band was getting ready to launch their first-ever tour of the United States and Canada which begins on Saturday, November 12th in Boston at the Middle East. Several of the shows are already sold out and you can find the complete tour schedule right here.
Their current album Witness has received numerous accolades, including being named the 17th best album of 2021 by Loudwire and they have a recent live album, Live from the Pool, which was recorded inside a swimming pool at an abandoned military camp in New Zealand.
Asger handles lead vocals and guitar for the group and we talk about how the band has evolved, songwriting, what it’s like to record a live album inside a swimming pool and his love for Metallica, just to name a few things.
