Originally formed as a side project towards the last couple of years of Motörhead by Phil Campbell, the former Motörheadguitarist of 32 years, the band decided to take it up a level and revealed the new name of PHIL CAMPBELL AND THE BASTARD SONS at Wacken Open Air 2016. A self-titled EP was released a few months later. Led by one of the genre’s most respected guitarists and completed by his sons Todd, Tyla and Dane the band emerged onto the 2017 touring circuit powered by a huge amount of good will, a smattering ofMotörhead covers and a handful of new songs that crackled with passion and swagger. Landing themselves a prestigious support slot on GUNS N’ ROSES 2017 summer stadium run, the BASTARD SONS hit the ground running. By the time the band released their debut album, The Age OfAbsurdity, in January 2018, this honest rock ‘n’ roll enterprise had organically blossomed into a pretty big deal. The album garnered widespread great reviews, picking up a trophy for ‘Best Debut Album’ at Metal Hammer Germany’s 2018 awards. Two years later, recorded and engineered duringlockdown by guitarist Todd Campbell, the second album was just the tonic people needed. It’s called We’re The Bastardsand it was bigger, better and even more raucously upliftingthan its predecessor with top 40 national chart entries in 4 countries! Shortly after the band announced to the world the recruitment of new powerhouse lead singer Joel Peters in January 2022, the band entered their studio at Stompbox Studios, SouthWales, UK and began writing and recording the album at the beginning of 2022. After putting the songwriting groundwork in throughout the Spring, the bastards then entered their busiest festival season to date including performances at major festivals such asWacken Open Air, Hellfest, Graspop Metal Meeting and many more throughout the summer of 2023. After the busy festival season the band then had time to reconvene to put thefinishing touches on their new album, Kings Of The Asylum. Phil Campbell commented “It’s been a great experience writing this album alongside Joel and the rest of my lads. We’ve come up with some monstrous riffs and hooks for your listening pleasure. We can’t wait to play some of these songs at some of our old favourites towns and cities and visiting some new places too!” Joel Peters added: “I’ve had great fun working on this album alongside Phil and the boys and this is an album I am immensely proud of! Looking forward to everyone hearing it and touring these songs for the first time! We’ve got some definite bangers here!” Kings Of The Asylum picks up where We’re The Bastardsleft off: you get eleven hard-hitting, honest-to-the-bone heavy rock cuts, including stand-out singles such as the stadium rock hymn ‘Strike The Match’ and the fast paced banger ‘Too Much Is Never Enough’. This is the definitive version of PHIL CAMPBELL AND THE BASTARD SONS – the band has further perfected its timeless yet invigorating in-your-face hard rock and they are looking forward to presenting their explosive new material live this fall… on stages across Europe!

Fun night with Phil Campbell. Me and my mate loved it and I got some cracking photos from the night. They were also very kind enough to let us have photos with them before the event.
The Sugarmill Stoke-on-Trent, United KingdomPhil and the boys played an excellent set including motorhead and ramones tracks, the revelation of the show for me were the support act. King Creature played a great set and really warmed the crowd up
Rescue Rooms Nottingham, United KingdomPhil Campbell, Bier (Turbinenbräu) und auch das sehr nette Personal waren toll. Der Saal war aber zu klein und und der Support passte in überhaupt nicht. So kann der Abend nicht als echter Genuss bezeichnet werden.
Dynamo Zürich, SwitzerlandPhil and the boys were bloody fantastic. Islington O2 is odd, though. The first floor is frankly crap. The people against the railing can see the stage but almost entirely block anyone else's view.
O2 Academy Islington London, United KingdomGreat gig, from start to finish. Everyone was on top of their game all night The 1865 was absolutely rocking If you love Motörhead get a ticket as this is not to be missed
