Bestial Warlust
Bestial Warlust is an Australian extreme metal band formed in Melbourne in 1990. They achieved underground cult status as a war metal band.[citation needed][1] HistoryThe band was first formed under the name Corpse Molestation and at the time played black/death metal with five demos and one demo compilation under the name. Their lyrical themes involved death, war and blasphemy. The band also used pseudonyms to hide their identities. They were one of the pioneers of Australian black metal[2] and extreme metal, recording two black/death metal albums in the mid-nineties before breaking up. Their style was raw and furious,[3] taking off from the old-school black metal style found in such bands as Bathory, Sarcófago, Beherit, and Blasphemy. Many members of Bestial Warlust went on to form Deströyer 666 and participate in other Australian extreme metal acts. In November 2019, the group announced a show at the Croxton Bandroom in Melbourne. Initially announced for 31 October 2020, it was delayed to an as-yet-to-be-announced date in March 2021, and later to 11 September that year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, before being cancelled.[4] Band membersLine-up
