Description

Double album on gold vinyls with gatefold cover and the whole album on cd as bonus

If you want to understand how Swedish metal act Bullet works, you only have to take one look at the ancient tour bus that the five musicians have been conquering the world with for years. The black, white and red 1964 Volvo B63508, lovingly referred to as the Bullet Bus, with its indestructible six-cylinder engine and countless miles under its frayed seats, the band’s mobile hotel. Mind you: perhaps hotel isn’t quite the operative word, (youth) hostel would be more to the point, the van’s interior having accumulated an attractive odour composed of petrol, sweat, beer and a diverse range of tobacco blends in its interior. In the years that we’ve been travelling from show to show in our van and have visited countless festivals, our Bullet Bus has never let us down, guitarist Hampus Klang phrases a kind of declaration of love to the vintage vehicle that features on the cover of the group’s latest album Dust To Gold for a good reason. The Volvo has more than earned its place on the front cover, because in its own way it’s just like we are: hard as nails, resilient and full of priceless memories. An vintage and hard is two perfect words to describe the music of Bullet as well. Take Iron Maiden, Accept and Judas Priest and you have the metal templates that these Swedes works by. Dust To Gold has a glorious sound, strong songs and everything else you need if you want to relieve the glory days of early 80s European Metal. There’s nothing here you won’t love – 12 tracks of real metal from a band who 12 years in appear to be at the very top of their game.
