Bokassa - Vultures


The fast-rising stoner punks BOKASSA have gotten a name after toured Europe supporting METALLICA on the "WorldWired Tour" in 2019, with METALLICA drummer Lars Ulrich giving the band a glowing endorsement.

BOKASSA released its latest album, "Crimson Riders" and pretty recently they have unveiled the official video the tune "Vultures", taken from their latest album.


BOKASSA fuse stoner rock riffs and groove with the energy and volatility of punk and hardcore, into their own unique brand of stoner punk. New album "Crimson Riders" was recorded back home in Trondheim’s Brygga Studio, with production by Yngve Andersen (BLOOD COMMAND), mixing by Simon Jackman, and mastering by the legendary Grammy-winner Brian “Big Bass” Gardener (Dr. Dre, BAD RELIGION, AVENGED SEVENFOLD, CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL).

After the tour with METALLICA they are now out for a UK & European headline tour, see all the dates below.

Today's tune "Vultures", taken from "Crimson Riders", enjoy!

BOKASSA frontman Jørn elaborates, “To us ‘Vultures’ always had a desert road trip kind of groove to it. But there aren’t many deserts where we’re from in Norway, so we made this psychedelic wacky road trip video instead. It was shot in Manchester, UK, the day after we played Stade De France in Paris!”

Bokassa - Mouthbreathers Inc.


17th of May, the national day in Norway, hurray hurray Norway! I wish we could celebrate our national day same as the Norweigan does, but no, we don't...sad. So today we celebrate them and play Norway's finest stoner-punk band BOKASSA, a band that released a brand new music video for "Mouthbreathers Inc." yesterday, taken off of the new upcoming album "Crimson Riders" out June 21st.

BOKASSA plays some fuse stoner rock riffs and groove with the energy and volatility of punk and hardcore, into their own unique brand of stoner punk. Their 2017 debut album, "Divide & Conquer" was an excellent release.

"Crimson Riders" was recorded back home in Trondheim’s Brygga Studio, with production by the band together with Yngve Andersen (BLOOD COMMAND), mixing by Simon Jackman, and mastering by the legendary Brian ‘Big Bass’ Gardener.


BOKASSA enthuses, “We are very excited to release "Crimson Riders". Nine songs which revolve around everything from cults, religion, and border patrols to beer-drinking anti-heroes and immortal space pirates! Sonically, the album gives the listener everything from classic stoner-punk tracks, groovy desert songs, and high speed trash metal, to hardcore-oriented sing-a-longs. This time we also played around with both cellos and saxophone in the studio so expect a few curveballs here and there.”

BOKASSA is out on tour with METALLICA and GHOST this summer, see all the dates below. Enjoy today's tune!
