Hidden Gems & Guilty Pleasures: Bastardizer (Australia)
Bastardizer (Blackened Thrash Metal // Australia)
Bastardizer was formed in 2013 in Sydney, Australia with the intention of producing a brand of dirty black thrash ‘n’ roll that raises fists, induces heads to bang and makes babes randy.
Since then the band has garnered a very strong legion of fans after numerous live onslaughts across Australia, New Zealand, Europe, and Asia, as well as supporting heavy metal heavyweights such as Morbid Angel, Hobbs Angel Of Death, Origin, Destroyer 666, Skull Fist, Tribulation, Lich King, Midnight, Toxic Holocaust, and Coroner.
Debut LP »Enforcers Of Evil« was released through Heavy Forces Records (Germany) and Hells Vomit Productions (New Zealand) in 2014 followed by split releases »Strike Of The Bastard« (2015) with Whipstriker and »Bring Back The Riff« (2016) with Bulletbelt. 2018 saw the band release their latest LP »Dawn Of Domination« via Evil Spell Records (Germany), their best work to date.
The release was followed in 2020 by another split »Speed Armageddon« with Wraith via Bonepick Records (USA). Bastardizer are ready to unleash their Hellish attack upon the rest of the world.
