HEAR YE, HEAR YE – 10 DAYS UNTIL BAGDAD RODEO’S “MESSAGE ESSENTIEL”

As the second installment of a massive project, QUATRE – PART.2, the “endless album” by Bagdad Rodeo, is a ruthless, snarling, and resolutely politically incorrect rock opus. True to their sarcastic DNA, the band delivers ten timely tracks driven by an implacable rhythm section, offering a vital outlet for both teenagers and adults thirsting for freedom. The first single, titled MESSAGE ESSENTIEL, drops on February 27, 2026, just to set the tone.

Single Release Schedule:

February 27, 2026 – Message Essentiel

March 06, 2026 – Punk Charmant

March 13, 2026 – Rock N’ Roll Loser

March 20, 2026 – Super Baltringue

March 27, 2026 – Climatocomplotiste + Full Album Launch…

The immersion begins with Message Essentiel, a radical first single that subverts the softness of “cuddles” (papouilles) into a screaming rage against the corruption of the powerful. On the album, the band follows up with Réac Man, a scorching parody of the reactionary, misogynistic male in a style somewhere between Souchon and Faith No More, before taking aim at unbridled obscurantism with Climatocomplotiste. Lucidity reclaims its rights on Rock N’ Roll Loser, where self-deprecation dismantles the rockstar myth, before sliding into the distress of Quand Tu T’en Vas, a pathetic ballad on emotional dependency with sounds worthy of The Stranglers.

The album then solidifies its identity with Punk Charmant, a generational manifesto refusing the obligations of the docile adult, then explodes with Super Baltringue, a ferocious charge against the hypocrisy of political elites. The tension peaks on the visceral Liberté, Égalité, Sécurité, which denounces police repression with an energy reminiscent of London Calling. Facing digital dehumanization, Idiocratie Artificielle casts an anxious gaze on our hyper-connected world, before Symphonie Militaire brings the album to a close. This poignant, grunge-inflected conclusion on the absurdity of war—recalling the likes of Trust or Boris Vian—leaves the listener pensive in the face of the soldiers’ sacrifice. While the album ends in a moment of reflection, hope remains: the QUATRE adventure is, by definition, endless.

REVOLUTION VENDETTA ON VIDEO

BAGDAD RODEO presents the video “Revolution Vendetta”. A hymn to resistance and freedom. This incisive title is the first extract of the album “Quatre – L’Album sans Fin – Part 1”.

“Revolution Vendetta” stands out for its bold words and rebellious energy, bearing the characteristic imprint of BAGDAD RODEO. The words of Bishop Delatourette and Christobal Sanchez del Rodéo testify to an unwavering determination to remain true to oneself despite external pressures.

“Still alive, still there,
Not ready to walk,
Not ready to shut my mouth in front of you
I won’t bend, I won’t change
The rodeo will win
Revolution vendetta, fist raised in front of you”

The video was directed by Bertrand Boissimon, in the cold, perhaps in the east. The sobriety of the images contrasts with the energy of the title. The quality of the photography is undeniable. Simple, raw, authentic: real rock that spoils. With words like “I’m not dead, you won’t get me”, BAGDAD RODEO refuses to submit to the norm and continues to claim its identity.

“Revolution Vendetta” is a direct response to the current challenges of society, a call for perseverance and the defense of fundamental rights. The lyrics embody the vision of BAGDAD RODEO, a militant group that takes you on a rodeo of social satire and caustic humor.

“The fight is more relevant than ever, and BAGDAD RODEO will always be ready to take part. The exile is over…” says the group.
