“I want our music to feel like we’re giving the listener a hug” isn’t the expected answer from an artist categorically in the metal genre. Yet for Danish-Swedish quartet, VOLA, they defy conventions, combining electronic elements with a progressive and pop-infused metal sound, which at times really does feel like you’re embraced with the melodies of lead vocalist and guitarist, Asger Mygind. The melancholic characteristic of their music is one of their shining uniquenesses. Some of it feels like a lullaby, when suddenly, you’re hit with a barrage of heavy down-tuned guitars and a driving rhythm section. Yet somehow the worlds blend.

Performing songs off their 2021 album, “Witness” as well as their 2024 single "Paper Wolf," VOLA's From Nothing serves as a testament to the enigmatic energy they bring to both their recordings and their live performance. Their music takes listeners on a journey that integrates the complexities of relationships on both personal and societal levels. The message behind their music as well as their ability to evolve and redefine their sound, has resonated deeply with VOLA's ever-growing fan base worldwide. 

We are very proud to present, VOLA, on Audiotree From Nothing!
