If you like your music to sound like a fight breaking out in a Manchester alleyway, you’re in luck. The purveyors of profane aggression, Wolfbastard, are back. Following on from 2022’s face-ripping Hammer The Bastards, the trio have announced their latest offering, Satanic Scum Punks, is set for release on 13th March 2026 via their new home at Apocalyptic Witchcraft.
For the uninitiated, Wolfbastard – featuring members of Foetal Juice and Burial – have built a reputation for fermentation of bile, belligerence, and a unique blend of black metal and punk. They don’t do subtle. They do bone-breaking, sonic violence.
For more about this somewhat off-kilter bunch of loonies, check out the interview we did with them at Bloodstock in 2023.
The new record promises to be their filthiest yet. From the bilious “Fuck The Bastards” to the self-explanatory “Drink For Hell”, it’s an album designed for hot, claustrophobic venues and flying bodies. Tracks like “Blood On Steel” and “Hail Satan Kurwa” are set to be absolute belters when unleashed live, capturing that specific “riot today, don’t give a fuck” attitude the band has perfected.
Speaking of unleashing things live, the band aren’t just dropping the album and sitting at home. They’re heading out on a run of UK dates this March to support the release. If you want to see what the chaos looks like in person, check the dates below.
Satanic Scum Punks lands on 13th March on vinyl, CD, cassette, and digital formats. You can pre-order it here.
