New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The legendary street punk band THE BASTARDS, started life in the working class hole of the world, Wakefield - Yorkshire, England in the early 80's. Formed in high school at 13 years old, a true English punk band raised on the Pistols, Clash, Automatics, UK Subs, Buzzcocks with a heavy dose of The Ramones. In December 1990 THE BASTARDS packed their bags and moved to LA. After the 1st reunion in 2002, last year the Social Media started to demand to see THE BASTARDS active again! And the band responded with an announcement of their first album in 12 years, �Straight Outta Yorkshire�, set to be released in
Spring 2016, produced once again with long time Bastards producer Greg Hayes. The album will include 10 new tracks that will build upon the success of �Old, Fat & Sweaty� (2004).
The band comments:
We are really excited to be joining the Alpha Omega roster of bands. It�s an honor to be one of the first bands to sign with the new USA office. Tim has been a big fan of The Bastards and it�s because to his energy and enthusiasm for The Bastards that we signed with Alpha Omega. Since announcing the new album in October 2015 we have had almost 30,000 plays on Souncloud. The fan reaction has been overwhelming. Being part of Alpha Omega will enable us to reach a much bigger global audience and give even more punks the chance to experience The Bastards live!!
ALPHA OMEGA Management adds:
"We are so excited to have these legendary Bastards in our roster family! After 12 years, they will unleash their new album �Straight Outta Yorkshire� this Spring, confirming the living slogan: "Punk's not dead!". Today THE BASTARDS are ready to spread the punk ideals of the '77, as they were back then, without compromises. So, stay tuned for next announcements and show dates near you!"
