For 32 years PHIL CAMPBELL tore up stages around the world and rocked millions of devoted fans as guitarist and one third of Motörhead, perhaps the single most iconic and fabled band in rock music history. He now returns with his own much lauded band, PHIL CAMPBELL & THE BASTARD SONS, which appropriately features his 3 sons – Todd, Tyla and Dane – who are proof positive that genetics play a major role in musical genius.
The Everblack Podcast caught up with Phil Campbell to discuss bringing Phil Campbell & The Bastard Sons to Australia for the first time! They’ll be performing a massive set of Motörhead classics along with their own material. Phil also shares his thoughts on Lemmy’s legacy, his impact on metal and punk, Ozzy Osbourne’s retirement, and whether we’ll ever see another rock icon like them again. Plus, he gives exclusive insights into the next Bastard Sons album and more!
