BANTORIAK Announce New Album “Vol. II”, First Single ‘Blu Bus’ Feat. Sergio Ch. Out Now

Italian desert cult rock psychonauts BANTORIAK return to unveil their long-awaited new album “Vol. II”, set for release on June 19th, 2026 via CD, colored vinyl and digital formats on Argonauta Records. Seven years after their acclaimed debut Weedooism, the band opens a new sonic chapter, expanding their vision into a deeper and more immersive psychedelic experience.

Conceived as the solo vision of Izio Orsini (Rancho Bizzarro), BANTORIAK evolves on this new chapter into a collective ritual, bringing together longtime collaborators and fresh contributors. The result is a hypnotic blend of psychedelic doom, drenched in a warm, vintage 70s-inspired sound, where desert winds meet humid, mystic atmospheres and hard blues inflections.

To mark the announcement, the band unveils the first single “Blu Bus”, featuring the legendary Sergio Ch. of Los Natas and Soldati on lead guitar. The track stands as a manifesto of the album’s spirit: expansive, gritty and deeply evocative, channeling the raw essence of desert rock through swirling jams and magnetic grooves, LISTEN HERE https://tidal.com/track/517988755/u

(Los Natas), Marco Gambicorti (Rancho Bizzarro), Toto Barbato (The Cage, Snaporaz), Omar Tognotti, Giacomo Cerri (Vesta), Rosy Ninivaggi (Profanal), Valentina Erre, Jacopo Pannokkia, Filippo Del Bimbo (Supernaughty), Andrea Appino (Zen Circus), Mattia Cominotto (Green Fog Studio), Giacomo Vaccai.
