Volbeat vil starte jobben med å lage et nytt album i løpet av 2012, med en potensiell utgivelse i april, 2013.
Trommis, Jon Larsen, sa bl.a. følgende i et intervju gjort nylig:
"...we are probably going to be in the rehearsal room for the rest of the year coming up with stuff and getting the songs ready. Hopefully we will record a new album at the end of the year."
Vokalist, Michael Poulsen, har bl.a. uttalt til Loudwire:
"...some material has been written on the road and some has been written at home. We will be home in a couple of days then it’s up to me to put all the pieces together and then we will enter the studio probably late this year, maybe early next year, but there will definitely be a new Volbeat record out, I believe around early April or something like that."
