Wormholedeath is proud to welcome a bold new force into the fold: Belgium’s electro-fun metal phenomenon BOUM PATAT has officially signed with the label for the worldwide re-release of their debut album "Ma Belgitude", set to drop on October 31, 2025. BOUM PATAT is the eccentric, electrifying creation of Olivier Wittenberg, a veteran of the Belgian metal scene known for his work as drummer and composer with Manic Movement. Having toured across Europe in the 2000s alongside metal giants like Kreator, Moonspell, and Psychotic Waltz, and gracing iconic stages such as Graspop Metal Meeting, Wittenberg now returns with a vengeance — and a sense of humor. "Ma Belgitude" is a self-produced, genre-defying blast of metal mayhem and Belgian absurdity, combining the brute force of groove and industrial metal with a delirious mix of old-school electronics — think new beat, techno, and a touch of madness. Olivier wrote, performed, and produced the entire album solo, bringing a raw, unfiltered vision to life with all the power of a full band. Live, BOUM PATAT transforms into a powerhouse trio, with Laurent Soulasse on bass and Maxime Demulder on drums, amplifying the chaos and charm on stage. A hybrid of Rammstein's industrial weight, Machine Head’s aggression, and unapologetically bizarre humor, BOUM PATAT doesn’t just bend genres — it blows them up with pyrotechnic absurdity. “Electro-Fun-Metal” is more than a label; it’s an attitude. It's metal for those who aren’t afraid to laugh while headbanging — a sonic punchline with real bite. “This is just the beginning,” says Wittenberg. “Expect more intensity, more contrast, and always, more fun.” |
