Bullet Highway Pirates

2011, Bullet is yet another Swedish band, but unlike so many of their teased-haired glam country mates these guys are like the country's ugly stepchild - the black sheep of the family that gets locked in the cellar during family reunions. But that is exactly what makes Bullet so great, they are rough around the edges and fuse traditional metal with hard rock roots for an almost flawless collection of adrenaline driven songs. Last year we had Airbourne to deliver such a sound, and this year Bullet have captured that same intensity and drive on their third full-length release HIGHWAY PIRATES. Vocalist Hell Hofer has one of the most unique voices since Accept's Udo Dirkschneider and has the unconventional looks to match.
