Bokassa

About this event

Norwegian powerhouse Bokassa returns to the stage with new album “Anomalies” in 2027!

The powertrio are embarking on a tour all through Europe, UK and their native Norway to

celebrate their fifth full length.

The band's nonstop blend of different subgenres in punk, metal and rock, into their own

stonerpunk, has seen the band touring with bands as diverse as Clutch, Lagwagon,

Therapy? and Mastodon. The same genre blending has also made them hard to pigeonhole.

In a world where people tend to like bands and artists that sound quite similar to other bands

and artists they like - Bokassa sound mostly like themselves. Not one to be bothered by

trends, masks, matching outfits or whatever else that seems to be popular, Bokassa aim to

please themselves more than anything. Still they've managed to try deep fried pizza in

Scotland, cheese fondue in the Alps, several different sorts of soda and also play some of

the world's biggest festivals like Wacken, Download and Hellfest. And of course tour with

Metallica. In 2019 they were picked from complete obscurity by Lars Ulrich to support

Metallica in stadiums all over Europe, UK and Russia. Ulrich hailed them as "his favourite

new band" and described them as "Insanely fucking cool" after hearing the trios first album

Divide & Conquer.
