J.B.O.

In a world that is increasingly coming apart at the seams, there are only a few things you can always rely on. One of these constants is the Franconian fun metal institution J.B.O.! After more than three decades in which they have established themselves as masters of humorous metal, they are opening the doors to their 15th studio album ‘Haus Of The Rising Fun’ on 9 January 2026 - a work that offers the perfect mix of quirky lyrics, satirical commentary and musical energy. And one thing is certain: whoever has the fun here has the power!The album ‘Haus Of The Rising Fun’ is not just another chapter in the successful history of J.B.O., but rather a response to the crazy and often chaotic world out there. In times of uncertainty, crises and global challenges, J.B.O. provide a safe haven with their new work - in their very own, humorous way. It is an album that not only makes you laugh, but also makes you think. Who better than the Franconian pranksters, who have always been known for incorporating their very own social and cultural observations into their music?The foundations for the ‘Haus Of The Rising Fun’ were laid back in autumn 2023, when J.B.O. developed initial ideas and visions for the new album. However, as is sometimes the case with big projects, there were some unexpected challenges - including problems with craftsmen and material procurement. But that's no reason for J.B.O. to panic! With the necessary humour and a good dose of confidence, they not only got the building project under control, but also put the finishing touches to their musical building. Interior designer Christoph Beyerlein was brought on board to give the ‘Haus Of The Rising Fun’ the perfect interior - including a heat and beer pump for the necessary cosiness as well as the ‘Wallbox of Death’, which ensures that the power never runs out.But ‘Haus Of The Rising Fun’ is not just a studio album - it is an experience that lives on live on stage. As part of the ‘Tour Of The Rising Fun’, the band will be presenting their new songs in their usual stylistically confident manner in halls and clubs across Germany. Fans can look forward to an unforgettable show, which will of course include a number of classics from the J.B.O. discography alongside the new hits. Songs such as ‘Ein guter Tag zum Sterben’, ‘Verteidiger des Blödsinns’ and ‘Alles nur geklaut’ will get the audience singing along and celebrating - and will certainly provide a good dose of fun.But as always with J.B.O., it's not just about music. It's about attitude. The band has proven time and time again that they take humour and fun seriously - and that is the key to their success. Because in a world that is increasingly characterised by seriousness and heaviness, J.B.O. remains the humorous, musical antithesis that reminds us that even in difficult times, laughter and celebration should not be neglected.With ‘Haus Of The Rising Fun’, J.B.O. present a work that not only emphasises their musical versatility, but also their ability to address major social issues with a humorous view of the world. The band invites you to see the world from a different perspective - with a big smile, a cool beer pump in hand and the certainty that the fun never ends.So, mark your calendars for 9 January 2026, because that's when ‘Haus Of The Rising Fun’ officially opens its doors. Be there when J.B.O. kick off the tour of tours and prove themselves once again to be the undisputed masters of fun metal. Because as the band themselves say: ‘He who has the fun, has the power!’ See you on the ‘Tour Of The Rising Fun’ - and until then: Four fingers for a hallelujah!
