“Count on Bokassa to keep serving up absolute bangers” Kerrang’s Sam Law wrote in his review of Bokassa’s latest full-length album “All Out of Dreams”, which hit the shelves in February 2024. And that’s exactly what they’ve done. The record saw the band further expand their self-patented brand of stoner punk into a hook-laden “Molotov Rocktail” of punk, hardcore, metal, and rock, or as Knotfest put it “This album is a testament to the band’s knack for creating anthems that are both rebellious and catchy.”

Released through Norway’s Indie Recordings (Satyricon, Cult of Luna, Wardruna), the album was recorded, mixed and mastered by legendary producer Tue Madsen in Antfarm Studio in Denmark, with guests like Lou Koller from NY hardcore legends Sick Of It All, and Aaron Beam from stoner rockers Red Fang. The record was hailed by critics around the world, with glowing reviews in Metal Hammer UK, Sweden Rock Magazine, Norway’s Dagsavisen, Powerplay Magazine and Germany’s Rock Hard.
