Hellbastard

Ripper Crust, 1986 The Good Go First... Hate Militia, 1987 (rel. 2000) Heading For More Darkness (Heading For Internal Darkness + 9 live tracks), 1988 (1998 CD reissue) Natural Order, 1990 Discography 1986-1987-1988, rel. 2009 Eco-War, 2009 The Need To Kill, 2009 The rebirth of Hellbastard is excellent news, their 2 new 2009 releases are full of great new tracks and re-recordings of old classics (even if The Need To Kill has way too much triggered bass drums in the mix!) - and a Slayer cover. Despite the lyrics and all the ties to the punk/crust scene, this stuff is totally metal. In the beginning there was Venom, and then Amebix, whose level of Venomness is already noticeable, and then Hellbastard's heavy dirty style proceeded to repackage the whole hierarchy, a tad faster. The amazing Natural Order is a 120% classic Exodus-style thrash metal album, it's fast, heavy, clean and mean, I think it's my favorite. untagged CD rip of Heading For More Darkness: 1.
