HELLBASTARD Signs With SELFMADEGOD RECORDS

September 9, 2009

Reformed U.K. thrash metal/crust punk band HELLBASTARD has inked a deal with Poland's Selfmadegod Records. The label will issue "The Need to Kill" on CD, as well as the newly recorded "Eco-War" CD EP, in late October 2009. "The Need to Kill" features six re-recorded HELLBASTARD ragers, while the six-track "Eco-War" release includes a track originally on the band's 1986 demo as well as a SLAYER cover.

HELLBASTARD formed in the U.K. in 1984 playing non-compromising crossover, mixing the ferocity of punk with the crunch and chops of metal, and bearing socially-conscious lyrics. HELLBASTARD released the "Natural Order" record on Earache in 1990 and released several demos, compilation tracks and remix collections. After breaking up in 1993, HELLBASTARD reformed in 2008 with all guns blazing! They are back in action with "The Need to Kill", available on limited-edition LP from German label Civilisation Records.
