Song of the Day: Battleship Chains

Happy Friday folks! Today’s song is by an artist that has been featured a few times…Volbeat. This one is a cover called, “Battleship Chains” and it was originally performed in the 1980s by The Georgia Satellites. I will feature both versions, but this one is off of Seal the Deal & Let’s Boogie released in 2016. Michael Poulsen, the lead singer of Volbeat who demonstrates the unique vocals in this one…tends to connect a lot of dots to who inspired him to become an artist. He has featured Johnny Cash song at their concerts and he has Elvis Presley’s name tattooed on his forearm. From what I can gather, Copenhagen, Denmark respects the Southeastern part of the United States in a musical way. Poulsen describes their music as a modern form of rockabilly too. Anyways…they’re pretty awesome and I hope you enjoy Battleship Chains.
