About: Bullet

Växjö's Bullet have spent over two decades keeping classic heavy metal alive on stages across Europe, opening for AC/DC at Gothenburg's Ullevi Stadium along the way. Fresh off their 2026 album Kickstarter, the five-piece hits the road with the same wall-of-Marshalls, no-backing-tracks philosophy that made them a festival staple.
