Blazing down the streets of Miami “Fire Fire” kicks off this epic new chapter for V.B.O., landing ahead of the forthcoming self-titled full length. The album, Vice Business Only, is set to make waves on July 24, 2026, released via Reigning Phoenix Music.

“’Fire Fire’ is a bold statement of the Vice Business Only lifestyle — a high-energy anthem that captures the essence of excess, ambition, and neon-lit nights”. Comments frontman Francesco Cavalieri. “Filmed in Miami, the video brings our vision of our music project to life through cinematic visuals mixed with modern 80s-inspired musical vibes. This single is not just a song, but a declaration of who we are. This is VBO.”

From “Fire Fire” emerge atmospheric synths, driving beats and highly melodic, intricate guitar leads. Francesco Cavalieri‘s charismatic vocal delivery brings the anthem to life. Awash with memorable moments, the track’s choruses are infused with stunning hooks notably the catchy lyric, “light it on fire”. V.B.O.‘s heavier influences manifest across the song with technical guitar riffs playfully set amongst the electronics. Towards the end of the track, V.B.O. lean into their metal side as Cavalieri‘s powerful harsh vocals inject a burst of aggressive textures into the mix.

V.B.O.‘s 80s inspired electronics provide a dreamy soundtrack across “Fire Fire”. The track’s genre-fusion transports the listener straight to the palm-tree lined streets of Miami, surrounded by luxury and excess. The music video, filmed across Miami, also includes footage from the project’s live debut appearance on 70000 Tons of Metal in January of 2026.

VICE BUSINESS ONLY (V.B.O.) is a musical project founded in 2023 by Francesco Cavalieri, best known as the frontman of the power metal band WIND ROSE, together with electronic music producer Simone Giusti. The project marks a bold artistic shift for Cavalieri, moving from fantasy-driven metal into a modern, urban, and cinematic soundscape.

The band’s lineup is completed by Claudio Falconcini (guitar), Federico Meranda (keyboards), and Angelo Carmignani (drums), combining diverse musical backgrounds into a cohesive identity. V.B.O. blends retro-futuristic synthwave with rock and metal, creating a sound that is both nostalgic and electrifyingly modern. Inspired by Depeche Mode, Tears for Fears, Daft Punk, and Justice, the band combines analog-style synths, driving rhythms, and powerful vocals into a polished, immersive experience.

At the core of V.B.O. lies a neon-drenched vision of excess, elegance, and cinematic nightlife—echoing the glamour and danger of cities like Miami. Themes of power, luxury, passion, and excess define the project, presenting the band almost as a stylized gang where image and attitude are as essential as the music.

The band made its live debut in January 2026 at the 70000 Tons of Metal festival in the United States, stepping onto one of the world’s most recognized international stages.

Since its inception, V.B.O. has positioned itself as a distinctive force in contemporary music, merging rock and metal energy with electronic groove and texture. More than a band, Vice Business Only delivers a complete audiovisual experience—a high-stakes journey through a retro-futuristic universe where the rhythm never slows and the attitude is larger than life.
