It’s a hard hog life for Bilmuri mastermind Johnny Franck, and things are only getting more fantastically absurd for the country, pop and metal-exploring ‘Murica man on his latest album, KINDA HARD.
As the latest cover star of Revolver’s new Spring 2026 issue, Franck took part in our “Greatest Interview” series to discuss his greatest songs, his wildest fans, the biggest hogs and everything in between.
There are two versions of this Spring’s Bilmuri cover: a standard edition, and a deluxe issue with alternate artwork that comes inside a numbered slipcase. The latter has been bundled together with a copy of KINDA HARD LP on Tusk-colored vinyl (limited to 500 copies) and a signed insert. Both options sport stunning photography from Josh Beech.
You can pre-order our Spring 2026 issue now in Revolver’s shop, where you’ll likewise discover other vinyl and CD versions of KINDA HARD, as well as other entries from the Bilmuri back catalogue.
KINDA HARD is due out April 4th via Columbia Records, and Bilmuri begins a U.S. tour April 17th at the Fillmore Auditorium in Denver, Colorado. You’ll find the rest of the date info here.
