HANG THE BASTARD spoke about their upcoming performance at Damnation:

“After nearly 10 years, thousands of miles and millions of beers, the time has come to end what has been an amazing journey into the world of heaviness. We, HANG THE BASTARD are thrilled to announce our last show will be at this year’s Damnation Festival. Having played before with a mixed line up due to injuries we will play full strength a heavy set to wave good bye for good.”

Festival director Gavin McInally also spoke of the festival:

“When you regularly see gigs priced at £30, £40 or even £50 a ticket these days, it’s been a minor miracle booking ELECTRIC WIZARD, ABBATH, CULT OF LUNA and ENSLAVED, backed by the solid cast of bands below them, for a £38 ticket, but we were confident that if we could make the bill we wanted happen, fans would once again turn out in force to support us. With more than half of the tickets gone already and our best sales always in the final weeks, it’s all pointing towards another sell-out and another massively successful Damnation Festival.”

Make sure you do not miss out on Damnation Festival and buy a ticket from their official website.
