Maltese hardcore/noise punk trio BILA have announced their upcoming debut album, ‘Beżżalart’, due for release on December 5 via Go Down Records and Kewn Records.
Alongside the announcement, the band have unleashed the album’s first single, ‘A Thousand Wolves’, accompanied by a blistering new music video – watch it here:
Visceral, high-octane, and bone-crunchingly heavy, ‘Beżżalart’ captures the purest essence of BILA’s anarchic sound and energy. Across eleven tracks, the trio channels their socially charged rage and offbeat sense of humor into a bilingual barrage of angular grooves, shout-along hooks, and weapons-grade riffage — perfectly distilling the chaos and intensity of their ferocious live shows.
Rooted in Maltese folklore and shaped by the harsh realities of modern island life, ‘Beżżalart’ paints a scorching portrait of a landscape drowning in concrete and corruption. It’s a furious reaction to the real estate developer hellscapes conjured by neoliberal gargoyle governments — and a declaration of defiance from a band that thrives in the noise between protest and playfulness.
