Australian Metal legends, Frankenbok, have returned in 2025 with a new EP that pulls absolutely zero punches. Irrepressible tells it like it is and doesnt care if you get your little feelings hurt. Get in or get out of the way!
Frankenbok transcend the normal parameters of metal, boasting a diversity and sound that epitomises a band that is comfortable within their confines, unafraid to try anything and impulsively applying that to their craft. The music Frankenbok creates is one embracing heaviness, humour and brutality; something like nude wrestling in a maximum security wing!
Irrepressible is a throwback to the original BOK, vocalist Adam Glynn was quoted to say “this new release so far is sounding like if GREETINGS and LOOPHOLES fucked and had a mutant love child that was then breast fed on steroids and red bull!”
The music video for Dopamine (I Got A New Ping) dropped on Australia Day. (January 26)

Since their conception in 1997, Frankenbok have had a curse of revolving door musicians, with the only constant being founding member and guitarist Aaron “Azza Bok” Butler. Azza’s style and musical vision is countered only by his tenacity and drive in forming the nucleus of what every musician strives to be, but few manage to accomplish. 2024 saw the return of their original vocalist Adam Glynn, and signing to new record label XMusic.
Drummer Tom Rossell and bassist Owen Spratling complete the current line up and the BOK have furiously returned in 2025 kicking off dates in February with Alien Ant Farm, Drowning Pool, Dreadnaught and The Eternal.
