BULLET, the Swedish heavy metal band, is back with its first new album in seven years, aptly titled 'Kickstarter'. This highly anticipated release marks a significant milestone in the band's nearly 25-year career, showcasing their enduring spirit and commitment to their craft. The album's title is a fitting metaphor for the band's journey, as they recently faced a challenging setback that only strengthened their resolve. During a recent tour, BULLET's iconic tour bus suffered an engine explosion after one of their shows, forcing the band to return home without their beloved vehicle. However, this unexpected event did not deter the band's determination. Instead, they repaired the bus with unwavering dedication, embodying their classic heavy metal spirit and DIY mindset. Now, they are ready to hit the road again, bringing their timeless and contemporary sound to new audiences. The lead single, 'Kickstarter', is a powerful track that sets the tone for the entire album. It was written by Ben, who presented the idea during his time in the band. The song's catchy guitar riff and energetic rhythm will undoubtedly captivate listeners and leave a lasting impression. The album features a diverse range of tracks, including 'Caught In The Action', 'Open Fire', and 'Hit The Road', each showcasing the band's exceptional musicianship and ability to blend traditional heavy metal with a modern touch. 'Kickstarter' will be available in various formats, including a CD digipak with a poster, a limited-edition LP gatefold version, and digital download. Fans can expect an immersive and high-quality listening experience, whether they choose the physical or digital release. With its release on January 9, 2026, via Steamhammer, 'Kickstarter' promises to be a must-listen for metal enthusiasts worldwide, offering a fresh and authentic take on the genre.
