The official video for ‘Shoes To Fill’ accompanies BOMBUS’ first single from No Magic. The Swedish rock band have released the track through Black Lodge Records, which will also release the album in early 2027.
BOMBUS describe the single as an introduction to the musical direction of the forthcoming record:
“Choosing 'Shoes To Fill' as the first taste of our upcoming album sets the tone from the very first note. Riff-driven, relentlessly direct, and packed with the energy that runs throughout the entire album, it's a rock'n'roll heavyweight that hits hard and refuses to let go.”
The announcement describes No Magic as the band’s rawest and heaviest record to date, emphasizing a stripped-down approach to hard-hitting rock. BOMBUS put that intention more directly: “This is us at our most real. No magic, just pure force.”
An exact album release date, further singles and additional touring details will be announced later.
Formed in 2008, BOMBUS’ release history includes The Poet and the Parrot (2013), Repeat Until Death (2016), Vulture Culture (2019) and Your Blood (2024). The lineup comprises Fredrik Berglund and Johan Meiton on vocals and guitar, Simon Solomon on guitar, Ola Henriksson on bass guitar and Peter Asp on drums.
