The alternative stoner/doom metal titan that is Rustorm, was founded by members of the 90s alt-metal band ‘Pulkas’, Rob Lewis and Jules McBride. Having made a serious mark on the metal scene with the Pulkas album ‘Greed’ (released through Earache records), they ended up in Metal Hammer’s top ten list of bands that made a killer album and then split up.

Having subsequently played separately for many different bands such as Hercules ii, Test Dept, MurderOne & Evi Vine, Rob and Jules formed Rustorm together in 2020 to release a debut EP, Death Valley Speed Trap which was followed by a full album, Razed to the Ground’ in 2022. As their sound developed, frequency defying low-end guitars, gravel filled vocals and hypnotic bass lines are all rounded off with string, piano and atmospheric samples to create a sound that crosses genres.In mid 2024, powerhouse drummer, Dave Nato Hazlewood (Anti-Nowhere League, Angelspit, 4th Wall) joined the band to create a formidable three-piece live band that could move mountains with their combined, ferocious sound. The new album Gravity was released on the 7th March 2025
