Bokassa announce new album ‘Anomalies’
BOKASSA have announced a brand new album!
The Norwegian stonerpunk trio have announced their fifth studio album, Anomalies, which is scheduled for release on March 12th, 2027 via Kings Of Stonerpunk Records. The record is the follow-up to 2024’s All Out Of Dreams and was produced by Adrian Bushby (FOO FIGHTERS, MUSE, THE DARKNESS) and mastered by George Perks (ENTER SHIKARI, SKINDRED).
Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for new single Cop Out, the second single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from Doesn’t Matter If You Love It Here.
Speaking about the new track, vocalist Jørn Kaarstad says, “it’s about quitting while you’re ahead, before you become something you despise. Before you start doing expensive VIP Meet & Greets, before you write lyrics that are just empty buzz words, before you start doing TikTok-dance videos to sell more tickets. I don’t wanna spend my time coming up with new ways to get views on social media, when I know that there are still different pizzas out there I haven’t tried yet.”

Also discussing the album, Kaarstad says, “we’ve never really fit in with anyone. So we kinda just evolved into our own little entity. It’s become a ‘those who get it get it’ kinda thing and I’ve seen fans bond at shows over their shared love of our band, which is really cool.”
Also, you can view both the track list and artwork for the upcoming new album below:
