TRUCKFIGHTERS from Sweden Make Comeback After a Decade with New Single “The Bliss”
Sweden’s TRUCKFIGHTERS have made a triumphant return after a decade with the release of their new single “The Bliss” and an impending album titled Masterflow, set to drop on April 10, 2026, under Fuzzorama Records. The band is also gearing up to grace the stage at Camden’s Desertfest on May 17, bringing their trademark fuzzy sound back to the live music scene.
Labeled as “Swedish desert rock legends,” TRUCKFIGHTERS describe their latest single as a representation of everything that Masterflow encapsulates – fuzz, groove, and melody. They express their excitement about this new track being their first release in a decade and assure that listeners are in for an unforgettable sonic journey as they capture a delicate balance between discipline and freedom embodied in the album.
The core duo of TRUCKFIGHTERS, Niklas “Dango” Källgren and bassist/vocalist Oskar “Ozo” Cedermalm, established the band in 2001 in Örebro, Sweden, where they laid the foundation for what would later become a global stoner rock sensation. From their debut song “Desert Cruiser” to their critically acclaimed live performances, TRUCKFIGHTERS have solidified their reputation as master craftsmen of fuzz-laden grooves and psychedelic rock, drawing high praise from industry giants like Josh Homme, who once hailed them as “the best band that ever existed.”
Despite over two decades of touring, TRUCKFIGHTERS may not hit the road as frequently as in their early years, but they promise fans an electrifying live experience with their distinctive high-energy sound. With their new Euro release tour slated to begin in mid-April and extend through May, leading into a festival-filled summer ahead, the band continues to deliver powerhouse performances that showcase their trademark fuzz and captivating stage presence.
The band’s tour dates include appearances in various cities such as Cologne, Oslo, Bergen, Stavanger, and several other European locations before culminating in a show at the Angeliter Open Air in Taarstedt, Germany, in August. TRUCKFIGHTERS’ tour promises to be an exciting journey for fans seeking a live music experience enriched with their hallmark fuzz-drenched sound and high-octane energy.
