VA Rocks release new single, ‘Not Dead Yet’, straight, uncompromising rock n’ roll with best punk rock elements and voice that we’re told “will knock you out!”
Formed back in 2006 as a garage rock band in a small town in Sweden, VA Rocks were heavily influenced by bands like AC/DC, The Ramones and The Runaways. As they started to create their own rock sound at a steady place they began developing a firm footing on the Swedish rock scene.
Having now played hundreds of live shows and toured with acts like bands like Kärbholtz, D-A-D, Thundermother and The Headlines, they’ve also played Sweden Rock Festival and done shows in several countries in Europe, Scandinavia and even Wales.
The first studio album, I Love VA Rocks was released 2019 on Metalville and the band is now working on their next album, to be released in September 2024, for the same record label.
‘Not Dead Yet’ is the first single from the upcoming new album. It’s the first song recorded as a four piece band, and it follows the classic VA Rocks sound. The track is a no compromise cocky track about picking up the pieces and finding yourself again after a big change or challenge in life.
Written by guitarist Cim Dahlle and recorded with Timmy Tift (Vånna Inget, Sista Sekunden) at Tift Studios in September last year, ‘Not Dead Yet’ is available digitally, and you can check out the lyric video – featuring live clips from shows played in 2023 – here at RAMzine.
