Bastardane, the stoner/sludge rock band starring James Hetfield's son Castor on drums, and OTTTO, which features bassist Tye Trujillo, son of Robert Trujillo, have announced and eight-date tour in California, which includes appearances at the BottleRock festival that is being headlined by Metallica.

The first two dates of the run will start on a serious high, with Bastardane playing the aforementioned fest on May 27 and OTTTO the following day. From there, the groups will hit six more cities in the "Golden State," with a final stop coming in Seal Beach at the Affliction Clothing headquarters at a show hosted by Sirius XM's Jose Mangin.

Nearly one month ago, Bastardane released their debut album, Is This Rage, a 10-track effort that is ripe with groove-heavy riffs and a lot of swing from the young Hetfield behind the kit. OTTTO, also a three-piece, have a groove-oriented sound accented by a hardcore edge and they released a self-titled EP in 2019, followed by additional new tracks.
