York, UK-based heavy rock and roll mob THE BASTARD SONS have released their new video for 'O'Brothel Where Art Thou?' - the latest track to be taken from their new EP Roads. Shot by Ben Mills from fellow road warriors THE SMOKING HEARTS, the video sees the band in a somewhat different light as they drag up for the cameras.

Front man JJ Jackson says the song is "a modern day look at people going home with strangers from a nightclub or a bar - they could be anyone from Ted Bundy to Rose West!"

"We wanted to try and avoid the 'band in a room' video for our first one (not that there's anything wrong with them). We just wanted something a little different. Ben came up with the weirdest idea that he thought we wouldn't do. He was pretty surprised and probably quite scared when we said yes to it without hesitation. I don't know if that says something about us....”

Following the news that they will be releasing their Roads EP on March 10th via Kaiju Records, The Bastard Sons have revealed they will be giving away their debut release as a free download to fans who buy tickets for their headline EP release show at Fibbers in York on Friday, February 28th. Support comes from THE FALLEN, THE SEA and BROKEN SKULLS.

The news comes alongside the announcement of a US tour supporting Californian friends THROW THE GOAD and an appearance at Hammerfest VI on their return to the UK - see below for full dates.

Guitarist Ollie reveals other plans, saying “We’re recording a video with Ben Mills from THE SMOKING HEARTS, he’s a great guy. We took the band out in York after we played and they like to party as much as we do. We’re still figuring out what the rest of the year will bring.”
