Phil Campbell And The Bastard Sons share Welcome To Hell video
Phil Campbell And The Bastard Sons release video for their new track Welcome To Hell - taken from the album The Age Of Absurdity

Phil Campbell And The Bastard Sons have released a video for their new track Welcome To Hell.
It’s been lifted from the band’s upcoming album The Age Of Absurdity, which is set to arrive on January 26 via Nuclear Blast.
Former Motorhead guitarist Campbell said: “I am really excited for the fans to hear our debut record. Every part of the process was done in Wales, from the writing, to the recording and even the artwork!
“The album title The Age Of Absurdity was inspired by the crazy world we live in today. The world to me seems to be a bit of a theatre show, so the album artwork idea just seemed to fit so well with the whole concept and album title.”
Phil Campbell And The Bastard Sons will head out on tour in support of the record at the end of next month. Find a full list of live dates below.
