The Rise of Bastarized
Forged in the fires of 2006 by Kai Andre Moe and Frode Aarstad, Bastarized emerged as a relentless force in
the rock 'n' roll and metal scenes. The lineup solidified in 2008 with the addition of guitarist Karl Engstrøm,
known for his electrifying riffs and raw power. The band reached its full ferocity in 2018, becoming a quartet
with the inclusion of Lars Fredriksen (Susperia, Intuition, Alsvartr, Fear Inc.) as the second guitarist, adding
an even sharper edge to their sound.
Their self-titled debut album, "Bastarized," dropped in January 2010 via DIG Music and distributed by VME,
setting the stage for their aggressive sound. The sophomore effort, "We Bring You War," followed in 2012,
this time distributed by Sony BMG in Germany, solidifying their reputation for hard-hitting, uncompromising
metal. The singles "Mental Town" (2015) and "One's Own Fear" (2017) kept the momentum going, showcasing
their relentless drive and unyielding spirit.
Bastarized isn't just a band; it's a statement. Prepare yourself for a full-throttle musical assault that refuses to
be ignored. JUST PLAY IT LOUD !!
