Introduction Written By Mike IX Williams EyeHateGod / Arson Anthem / Outlaw Order "In Being A Surviving Unit Like Cripple Bastards For Some 20 Odd Years It Takes Much Persistance Perserverance And An Undying Spirit To Wreck Yourself All Out With Brutal-Fucking-Grind. Yeah I Said It. I Said Brutal So What. Brutal. That's The Supposed Overused Adjective That Most 'heavy' Band Bios And Descriptions Overlook Nowadays For Fear Of Oversaturation Or An Unoriginal 'old School' Repetitiveness. Thats The One Word In The Dictionary That C.B. Should Have Fucking Copywritten A Long Time Ago. It Fits Them. It Defines Them. It IS Them. Cripple Bastards Are Indelibly BRUTAL. In All Ways Music Violence Artwork Attitude Politics. All Born Of This Represenatitive And Passionately Destructive Word. The Mere Fact That C.B. Even Exist Confirms They OWN The Goddamn Word. C.B. Are B-R-U-T-A-L. Understand It NOW. " Asti. Northern Italy. March 1988. The Consolidation Of The Friendship And The Common Passion For Extreme Violence Between Drummer/vocalist Giulio The Bastard Aged 14 And Guitarist Alberto The Crippler Aged 17 Both Coming From Local Thrash/punk Bands That Didn’t Fit Their Tastes And Didn’t Match Their Ambitions Spawned The CRIPPLE BASTARDS.

And To Mix It With The Fresh Extremism Of The Fastcore / Grindcore Pioneers Releasing Records Through Revolutionary Labels Like Children Of Revolution Earache Peaceville And Manic Ears.
