Hang The Bastard
‘’When cerebral circulation is severely compromised by any mechanism, arterial or venous, death occurs over four or more minutes from cerebral hypoxia, although the heart may continue to beat for some period after the brain can no longer be resuscitated. The time of death in such cases is a matter of convention...’’ Hang The Bastard was formed in the Summer of 2007 by Chris and Sam, previously of 'On The Attack', with the idea to create something completely new and different.
Influences of hardcore, old school rock and doom meant there was never one specific genre to follow – no rules!
