Bastarized

Bastarized is a no-bullshit, heavy-hitting, ball-breaking Rock ‘n’ Roll machine with both boots planted deep in the metal underground. Forged in fire and powered by pure adrenaline, these guys crank out original tunes that blend thrash, classic rock, and heavy metal into one hell of a sonic cocktail.

Known for their raw energy and no-holds-barred live shows, Bastarized doesn't just play music—they ignite it. When they hit the stage, the crowd doesn't stand a chance—your rock foot will start stomping whether you like it or not. With years of experience, a hard-earned chemistry, and a lineup built from different corners of the rock and metal world, this is a band that doesn’t just play loud—it hits hard.

Formed in 2006 by Kai Andre Moe and Frode Aarstad, the band leveled up in 2008 when Swedish riff-slinger Karl Engström (Swedish Hammer Chest) joined the ranks.
In 2018, they kicked it into overdrive by bringing in Lars Fredriksen (Intuition, Alsvartr, Fear Inc.) as their second guitarist, sealing the lineup and doubling the firepower.

Bastarized isn’t here to follow trends—they’re here to melt faces.
