Born from a chance reunion at a Mercyful Fate show in Brooklyn on November 13, 2022, Bastard Skull unites a crew of seasoned veterans with deep roots in the thrash underground. The spontaneous spark between John Blicharz (Annunanki, Blood Feast, Dusk) and Tom Lorenzo (Blood Feast, Without End) lit the fuse. Joined shortly after by George Kostadimas and Mark Mari (Sneak Attack), Bastard Skull formed like a sonic supernova, driven by decades of pure metal instinct.

The band tracked both the LP and EP at Band Mother Recording with none other than Michael Sabatini (Attacker) behind the board. The final mastering touch came courtesy of legendary engineer Alan Douches (West West Side Music), whose resume reads like a metal hall of fame: Aerosmith, Obituary, Nile, The Ramones, Dying Fetus, and beyond.

Critics have already begun raising horns in approval:

“Reminded me like when Hit The Lights [Metallica] came out.” – Jon “The Vernomatic” Verno, Metal Mayhem ROC Radio

“This is classic Thrash Metal from when the rubber first met the road… There’s zero filler, every tune has its place.” – Black Angel Zine

“Take the rawness and vocal delivery of Carnivore, the heavy groove of Tank, the musicianship of Raven and throw in a heavy dose of Motörhead, and you get Bastard Skull.” – Ed Farshtey, Armageddon Productions NYC

With early coverage in Hard Rock Magazine (Germany), Deaf Forever (Germany), and Metalized (Denmark), the buzz is undeniable.

Bastard Skull and WormHoleDeath now stand united in a shared mission: to tear through boundaries and bring unfiltered thrash metal to fans around the globe. Get ready.
