Review by jansq Jul 14, 2003
Op:l Bastards was formed by Timo Kaukolampi, Vilunki 3000 and Tuomo Puranen from Helsinki, Finland. They were originally known as Opel Bastards, but had to change the name a bit because of trademark disputes. The same thing happened to the finnish act Pan Sonic. Their original name is still not too hard to figure out, i think...
