Bokassa

Bokassa is a high-octane rock trio hailing from Trondheim, Norway, known for their unique fusion of stoner rock, punk, and heavy metal, a blend they've coined as "stonerpunk." The band came into existence in 2013, founded by vocalist and guitarist Jørn Kaarstad, bassist Bård Linga, and drummer Olav Dowkes. The group quickly established a reputation for their ferocious energy and an uncompromising approach to music.

The trio gained substantial traction in the rock and metal circles with their debut album "Divide & Conquer" released in 2017. Following their explosive entry, they continued to build their discography with impactful releases like "Crimson Riders" and an inventive live session "Live At The BBC." Their raw sound and raucous spirit caught the attention of Metallica's Lars Ulrich, who praised their work, further propelling Bokassa into the limelight. The band's subsequent albums, including "Molotov Rocktail" and tracks such as "Let's Storm the Capitol" and "So Long, Idiots!," showcase the band’s evolution without losing the gritty edge that has captivated their audience. Whether it's the politically-charged anthems or their deliriously energetic live performances, Bokassa continues to carve out their niche in the rock world with each new release.
