Bakken

Welcome friends! We hail from the Emerald Isle and we bring you own brand of thrashy-power metal.

With our politically charged lyrics, thundering double kick drums and relentless energy, we aim to spread our message of positivity, peace and respect for our all living things. So grab a beer and celebrate the glory of heavy metal with us!

Bakken quickly amassed a loyal following thanks to the positive press attention gained worldwide from the debut album <a href="spotify:album:4u5zw2pwaTEVaOcrkyYMY0" data-name="Death of a Hero">Death of a Hero</a>, including being listed by Metal Rules.com as &#39;Best New Band&#39; for 2012. The band&#39;s tight and energetic live performances got them established on the live circuit ultimately headlining their own shows and supporting bands such as Hell, Doug Aldrich and Tim Ripper Owens.

Bakken are back with a vengence in 2020 with their epic new full length album <a href="spotify:album:2Z8ABRp0Y9lQi0HAWnHMSc" data-name="This Means War">This Means War</a>.
