London sludge-doom metal five-piece HANG THE BASTARD are happy to announce details of their last UK shows of 2015 and this will include dates with SYLOSIS as well as select headline shows and a headline appearance at Mammothfest in Brighton, reported Century Media.
Ahead of the tour, the band has also released a music video for the song “Hornfel”. A true riff laden, beer swilling anthem that has become a fan favourite on the critically acclaimed album and was filmed at The Underworld, a venue that the band has played many times over their career.
In support of their album “Sex In The Seventh Circle”, the band will be out on the road for a short headline tour and they will also be joining their friends Sylosis for some shows in October and November.
Joe Nally (Bass/Vocals) in Hang comments: “These shows will be our last until next year as we are off to write album number 3! We will be playing some songs we haven’t played in a few years, so make sure you don’t miss out!”
See below for the exact dates!

HANG THE BASTARD‘s vocalist Tomas Hubbard has actually had a very bad week which has involved him in being kept in hospital for 3 days. He has had a back problem for two months and on Monday morning, he actually couldn’t walk. He is currently on crutches/wheelchair with heavy doses of morphine. The band is very sad to announce that they have to pull out of the UK tour with Swedish Death Metal legends ENTOMBED A.D.
Tomas Hubbard comments on this: “First and foremost I would like to apologize for the lateness of this news. I have been waiting to see if I could muster up the strength and stubbornness to bare through it…On Monday I got rushed to hospital in the early hours in severe amounts of pain in my lower back and couldn’t move my legs properly. After spending a very morphine endorsed trip to the Royal Berkshire hospital (god or not? bless the NHS) I have a disc in my back that’s popped out of place, I have limited feeling in my legs and feet due to my nerve stem in my spine. Having been under all manner of bizarre machines and sorcery, it would seem I will walk and in theory recover fully in the months to come. I sadly despite wanting to more than you can imagine, can’t tour/rock out as I can’t actually even walk without aid at present. I am so sorry to my fellow band mates and fans of the band equally for basically being a state and ruining a dream of a line up tour. We have spent a lot of money on flights and merch for the tour so are now gutted and in a tough spot. We just wanna get out on the road as soon as possible and put this huge disappointment behind us and riff. We will be back in action, primed, healed and eager to play as many shows as possible in the upcoming year, thank you for supporting us this far. I’m so frustrated and sorry for any disappointment caused.”
UK, West London based metallers HANG THE BASTARD are set to release SEX IN THE SEVENTH CIRCLE on October 14 in the U.S, via Century Media Records. The band has launched the second song, “The Majestic Gathering Of Goetia” from the album via Decibel Magazine’s blog. Check it out HERE.
Also, check out the official video for the title track here:
Produced by Steve Sears at Titan Studios in London (Gallows) and with jaw dropping conceptual art from Daniel P Carter, Sex In The Seventh Circle promises to be HANG THE BASTARD’s iron clad stamp on the worldwide heavy music scene. Dripping with acidic bile and fuzz fuelled venom, HANG THE BASTARD’s latest creation is a lesson in blunt force trauma but also has a dynamic, more subtle streak of melody throughout. The result is a sonic union of the heaviest Doom, the most righteous Metal, and an undoubtedly old school vibe that is as much Sleep and Sabbath as it is Crowbar and COC.
Stockholm based death metallers ENTOMBED A.D. are really “Back To The Front”, out now on Century Media Records. The band killed Bloodstock Open Air and are now proud to announce an UK tour with the London riff machine HANG THE BASTARD.
Nico Elgstrand (guitar): “Fellow tea-sippin,sheep-shagging bastards of Britannia, the time has finally come for retribution! For too long have we been watching and waiting silently on the sidelines, but in November we shall once and for all together bring back the spirit of proper metal mayhem as was once the trademark of the Empire. Sharpen your swords, polish your helmets and be prepared for the last victorious battle of our age! As the wise King Willie once said: There is no stopping what cannot be stopped, no killing what cannot be killed. You cannot see the eye of the demon…. Until him come calling! This is dread man, truly dread!”
HANG THE BASTARD who will release their new album “Sex In The Seventh Circle” Sept 22nd in Europe (October 14th in North America) through Siege Of Amida Records / Century Media Records comment on the shows: ‘We are extremely excited to get back out playing shows with brand new songs from our new album, Sex In The Seventh Circle. We’ve waited a while to unleash what we believe is our strongest and heaviest tracks to date. For all of us Entombed are one of our very favorite bands. The album Wolverine Blues alone was a major influence on how we’ve shaped our band. We are really excited to play with them in November at some killer venues. Riffs!!”

HANG THE BASTARD have teamed up with Metal Hammer UK and revealed the first new video from their forthcoming album “Sex In The Seventh Circle”, to be released on September 22nd in Europe and on October 14th in North America via Century Media Records – featuring psychedelic visuals, porn, satanic imagery and decidedly old school editing techniques (also filmed entirely on VHS), this is a clip that is purpose-built as an antidote for all those who feel over saturated by today’s overly polished modern music videos.
“Sex In The Seventh Circle” is the first single to be lifted from its namesake album and a testament to the gigantic sound forged on this record by the ‘Bastard. Check out the video HERE.
The band comments: “Sex In The Seventh Circle is the first new song that people will hear from the new album. We gave everyone a taste at the start of the year with Sweet Mother but we feel that we have gone even further into the direction we genuinely wanted this band to go. The video alongside the music is something we are equally proud of and thanks to the vision of Chris Hugall, we have achieved what we wanted from the footage. A band should be allowed to take chances and risks in the music they write. To be able to have selfish freedom in how they create. We hope everyone enjoys what we have spent a long time creating. It means a lot to us.”

UK West London based metallers HANG THE BASTARD have revealed the title, track listing and artwork of their eagerly awaited forthcoming new album, entitled “Sex In The Seventh Circle”. This absolute monster of a record is set to be released worldwide on September 22nd via SOAR/Century Media in Europe and October 14th in North America.
The band comments: “We are very excited to put out our new record “Sex In The Seventh Circle”. We have spent a lot of time writing what we believe is the album WE as a band wanted to write.In a day and age where a band is scrutinized for trying to do something different, we have gone ahead and written an album that we wanted to write and we hope that people love it as much as we do. If they don’t, feel free listen to something else.”
