Vicky Mono Returns to Burgerkill, Releases Single 'Kontinum'

Big news comes from the underground music scene in the country. Burgerkill finally marks a new chapter by bringing back Vicky Mono as the main vocalist. Vicky's presence also closes the era of Ronald Alexander Radja Haba, who chose to part ways with the band since the end of 2025.

Ronald himself had been the spearhead of Burgerkill since 2021. During his time with the band, he left a strong mark through his vocal style that brought a fresh nuance to several works, including Roar of Chaos, Resilient Blood, and Hollow.

On the other hand, Vicky Mono previously solidified his steps with DeadSquad, a death metal group also featuring guitarist Stevi Item. Vicky's distinctive vocal growl is dominant in songs like Enigmatic Pandemonium, as well as in cross-genre collaborative projects like Il Sogno with Isyana Sarasvati.

Four years later, Vicky finally decided to return to his 'old home'. For Burgerkill, the heavy metal band from Ujungberung, Bandung, Vicky holds a special place. His vocal character is considered strongly embedded in the memories of the Begundal, the term for the loyal supporters of Burgerkill.

Through an official statement on Instagram, DeadSquad conveyed that February 1, 2026, will be an important moment to honor Vicky Mono's personal decision to return to Burgerkill.
