'You will be knocked over by the wall of sound which backs a vocal delivery sounding like Mark E Smith on heat..Amidst fuzzed up, squalling and distorted guitars' - Louder Than War
Humanz are Bastardz is a raw, visceral & vicious aural attack, with an existentialist theme taking inspiration from novelists Jared Diamond - 'Gunz Germs & steel', Mikhailovich Dostoevsky - ‘Crime and Punishment’ (With added reference to ChatGpt /the Terminator movies) Karl Ove Knausgård - 'Every purpose under heaven' & Ian Dury (There ain't half been some clever bastards) - 'Humanz are Bastardz’. This release follows the 2021 album 'Under the Volcano' (A ref to the infamous novel by Lowry) & recent singles 'Das Ubermensch' & 'Spiderz', that received airplay on the BBC, Kerrang and many others.
No stranger to the big stage, as well as appearances at Rebellion/Camp Bestival/Glastonbury & Latitude festivals, Vistic has shared the stage with the likes of Mudhoney, The Sonics, Alabama 3 and The Jim Jones Revue. 'A Vistic live show is sweaty, it’s loud, it’s intoxicating.....an irresistible, unstoppable, larger than life force of nature....Vistic doesn’t do things by halves’ BBC Introducing Bristol.
