Info about Hellbastard
Pioneer crust punk band from Newcastle, UK, formed in 1984/1985 when guitarist [a=Scruff Lewty] (ex [a=The Apostles (3)]) and bassist [a=Scotty (6)] met at a [a=Subhumans] gig. With [a=Phil Laidlow] taking drummer's duties, Hellbastard's line up was complete. Their intentions were to play anarchist diy punk music, but with a more [a=Slayer] sound. Their first period was quite short as they split up in 1992. While the band was disbanded, [a=Scruff Lewty] formed quite a few bands like [a=Nero Circus], Sidewinder, King Fuel, [a=Heavy Water], [a=The Dischargers], Moodhoover etc, and [a=Scotty (6)] went to form [a=Hellkrusher]. They reformed in 2008, with Scruff Lewty being the only original member. They were scheduled to perform live at An (Exarchia, Athens, Greece) along with '[a=Χαοτική Απειλή]' & 'Αυτοκαταστροφή' on 16/5/1989 but the show ultimately fell through.
