The legendary UK thrash/crust/metal warriors Hellbastard will play their first show of their massive, headlining U.S. tour in Seattle, Washington this week, and will continue through over 40 gigs, ending on October 22 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The string of dates includes one show in Mexico as well.

In addition, the band will record their set at a free gig in the Los Angeles area for the recording of a live album, this September 13th [show filming takes place at 7580 Garden Grove Blvd. Westminster, CA 92683].

The influential group will be supporting their latest releases, The Need To Kill album and the Eco-War EP, both released in 2009 via Poland's brutal Selfmadegod Records.
