"Ultimate Rebel" went on top of the Swedish rock charts within a week of it´s release, and has been hailed as one of the top releases of 2012 by rock media all over the world.
"The Mess" is a dark, mesmerizing Rocker with a catchy lead riff ,coupled with great guitar work, and an infectious chorus to die for.
"The Mess" is released on the 14:th of March 2013 and will be backed up with a Live cut from the forthcoming Live DVD release, which will be out shortly. "The Live Mess" was recorded at last years Hard Rock Hell Festival in Wales, where Bonafide were accompanied on stage by some very raunchy dancers in front of a packed audience, adding some sexual solidarity to the riffage.
Since their last release, BONAFIDE have continued to play shows all over continental Europe and the UK, and will continue touring the European club and festival circuit throughout 2013.
Expect the unexpected from these Rock n Roll Rebels!
Long time since we said anything here... been quite busy touring, and then some...
Hope you all had a great new years eve, and look forward to a great 2013 as much as we do!
Songs are being written, plans are being made... 2013 will be Massive!

ULTIMATE REBEL is finally out!
It´s there for you all to enjoy, and we hope you do just that.
Is 10 songs. All rehearsed in hotel rooms, airports, dressingrooms and on tour coaches all over Europe. Recorded during a couple of weeks in Stockholm, Sweden, earlier this year.
We sincerely hope you enjoy it as much as we did recording it.
Making a record nowdays is easy. The hard part is to fund the whole goddamn thing and make it sound true to your original intention. We are lucky. We managed to create something that we can be proud of. Now and Forever.
This record is dedicated to ALL of you who bothered to go and see BONAFIDE in France, Sweden, Germany, UK, Austria, Holland, Czech Republic, Italy, Belgium, Norway, Denmark, Spain and Switzerland over the years.
And so the Never Ending Tour Continues... See you Soon Brothers and Sisters.
Rock!
Love:
Pontus, Mikael, Niklas & Martin
