BULLET Signs With NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS

August 11, 2011

Swedish hard rockers BULLET have inked a deal with Nuclear Blast Records.

Commented the band: "We've always been a band with a lot of ideas and now it's time to let them all loose.

"We think Nuclear Blast is the right label to help us out to make better records, cooler shows and more of everything that you've come to know as BULLET.

"We are really looking forward to releasing a new album on Nuclear Blast, because it is a great chance for us to reach new crowds and countries.

"BULLET will always be BULLET, hate it or love it. Now is the time to make it more powerful."

Added Andy Siry, head of A&R at Nuclear Blast Records: "We're highly delighted to welcome BULLET at the Nuclear Blast family.

"The boys of BULLET aren't only downright likeable and honest guys, they also live their music and embody the original spirit of rock 'n' roll.

"BULLET are superb on their albums as well as live on stage and we're noticing a constant development. Now we want to vault the 'Highway Pirates' into a higher division."

"Stay Wild", the latest video from BULLET, can be seen below. The song comes off the band's third full-length album "Highway Pirates", which entered the official chart in the band's home country at position No. 3.

"Highway Pirates" was mixed by Tobias Lindell, who has previously worked with such Swedish rock bands as EUROPE, MUSTASCH and HARDCORE SUPERSTAR. Their combined efforts have "succeeded in creating a sound that is retro and modern at the same time," according to a press release. "Hampus Klang's and Erik Ahlstrm's guitar sound is incredibly pure."

On February 5 a huge release party was held in BULLET's hometown of Vxj. The event was totally sold out, with almost 1,000 people attending, and the band delivered a classic rock show, finishing off with singer Hell Hofer "sawing off" the arm of a guy playing keyboards. In true BULLET spirit, specially made BULLET beer and hot dogs were served.
