KING BUFFALO Release Music Video for New Single "Vagabond"!

King Buffalo have released “Vagabond”, the second single from their upcoming album, Doomsayer, out December 4th, 2026, as a self-release in North America and through Stickman Records in Europe. Preorders are available via http://kingbuffalo.bigcartel.com and https://www.stickman-records.com. 

“’Vagabond’ was recorded in our new studio space, so it felt fitting to have the video take place there too,” drummer Scott Donaldson shares about the band’s newly constructed Rochester studio space. “It’s been a long road getting the space to where it is today, and there’s still plenty to do. From the beginning we have a vision of creating somewhere that functions as a proper recording studio while also being presentable and versatile enough for video. It feels great to finally share a glimpse of the new home we’ve built for ourselves, and to debut the second single from Doomsayer.”

The trio previously released “The Slick and The Dead,” a track Consequence said “merges classic desert rock a la Kyuss with Deep Purple-style organ accents and melodic flourishes.” The Obeliskalso weighed in, saying the new songs “capture the dynamic chemistry between the three of them at its most vibrant, breathtaking and viscerally heavy.”

“Doomsayer originated in early 2026 out of many hours of jam sessions in our new studio space, playing around and seeing where it took us,” explains guitarist/vocalist Sean Roa, who also produced and mixed the album. “We didn’t really have an end goal in mind of what we were going for. We were simply exploring ideas and seeing what ended up speaking to us the most. So much has happened, both as a band and in our personal lives since our last record, that ended up becoming the inspiration to many of the lyrics on Doomsayer. I think as a result, this is some of our most upfront, direct and riff-driven work to date. We are incredibly proud of it and can’t wait for it to get out into the world.”

Four years on from Regenerator, King Buffalo returns with a record shaped by years of international touring and a deepening confidence in their own sound. Recorded in the new studio the band built themselves, Doomsayer finds the trio continuing to reach into the unknown, while bringing a greater sense of focus and intention to their sound. The experience they have gained on the road is evident throughout the album, both in the poise of the material and the confidence of their delivery. Like the pandemic trilogy that preceded it, Doomsayer was made at home, but the band’s new surroundings have given them the freedom to continue exploring and finding new ground, with a maturity they have earned one stage at a time.

The band launch their North American tour on Oct. 29 in Boulder with support from L.A. Witch (Oct. 29 to Nov. 21, except Los Angeles), Doom Gong (Dec. 3 to 5 and Dec. 18), and Handsome Jack(Dec. 8 to 12). A European trek was announced with Spirit Mother opening on all dates.
