Melodicly driven stoner-punk, built around pugnacious drums, crappy riffs and catchy lyrics. And not only that! On this first track, from their upcoming Bokassa album, they feature New York hardcore legend Lou Koller on Sick of it All as guest vocalist.
It is the first single from Bokassa’s upcoming album, which was recorded by Tue Madsen (Meshuggah, The Haunted, Halford) at Antfarm Studios in Denmark.
“Garden of Heathen is a fast, riffy and melodic stoner punk with one of our best choruses. A band favorite and the perfect way to start our new record. There’s something about explosions to the song that we dig hard for. The fact that we also deliver The legendary Lou Koller from Sick Of It All is absolutely epic!tells the band.
The band, which has built an impressive career through extensive touring, technical highs, and a uniquely punk style of stoner metal, will now embark on an extensive European Union tour with heavy rock legends Therapy? in November and December. Therapy? released their 16th album “Hard Cold Fire” in May.
“Doing Therapy? as special guests across Europe and the UK on the 23rd will be a really raw experience. I think, for example, “Poundland of Hope & Glory” is one of the best songs of the year, so I’m really excited to experience it for free. direct!” said vocalist Jørn
Throughout their career, Bokassa have been a very active and strong live band. They have played in some of the biggest rock and metal festivals in the world such as Wacken, Hellfest, Download, Rockfest, Tons of Rock.
And they have toured all over Europe and Norway, supporting rock and metal icons like Mastodon, Baroness, Judas Priest, Zebrahead and of course Metallica.
