FROM PHIL CAMPBELL AND THE BASTARD SONS: 

 

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved father, Philip Anthony Campbell, who passed away peacefully last night following a long and courageous battle in intensive care after a complex major operation.

Phil was a devoted husband, a wonderful father, and a proud and loving grandfather, known affectionately as “Bampi.” He was deeply loved by all who knew him and will be missed immensely. His legacy, music and the memories he created with so many will live on forever.

We kindly ask that our family’s privacy is respected during this incredibly difficult time

 

 FROM MIKKEY DEE (MOTORHEAD, SCORPIONS): : 

 

We got the news this morning, and it’s so extremely sad, about the sudden passing of my brother and dear friend, Phil Campbell.

​He was the funniest guy I have ever known and the best rock guitar player I have ever played with. His vibe and feel for rock music were outstanding. We wrote 12 studio albums together, and he never stopped surprising me with his extreme talent. Most of all, I will miss hanging out with the nicest guy you could ever meet.

​My family and I send our thoughts to Phil’s family. I truly wish them all the best for the future, and I will be right here if they ever need anything.

​Sleep well, my friend and rock soldier. Say hi to Lemmy, Würzel, Filthy and Eddie. I am sure you’ll be a crazy gang hanging out together again!

​Love, Mikkey

FROM SAXON: 

 

We are gutted to hear the news about our great friend.

Much love & strength to his family from all of us in Saxon.

 

FROM MOTORHEAD: 

 

We cannot believe we’re saying this…it is with profound sadness that we have to say Philip Anthony Campbell has passed.

He was Motörhead's guitarist for 31 years (the longest serving member aside from Lemmy) having joined in 1984. After Lemmy’s passing, he was blessed to form Phil Campbell and The Bastard Sons with his sons Todd, Dane and Tyla, which recorded and toured together for years.

Phil was a wonderful guitarist, writer, performer, and musician who had Motörhead in his veins. He always led with his gift of guitar, and carried a great sense of humour, but most of all, Phil led with his heart. You could not be around him without a chuckle or twenty, because quite simply, Phil loved life and lived it with great joy.

There will be plenty of time for us to share stories -tales of Campbell glory- and some damn good jokes together; for now, please send love and positive energy to Gaynor and the boys while affording them time, space, and privacy.

Much love and RIP Phil. The world has just lost an enormous beam of light, and we are devastated.

 

 

FROM NERVOSA: 

 

One of the best moments beside of @phil_campbell_and_the_bs in some festivals around Europe.

Rest in peace legend! Meet Lemmy and continue Motorhead eternally

Thank you so much for the best music and feelings through your unforgettable guitar.

 

 

FROM U.D/O.: 

 

Phil, this is very hard to believe.

We have known each other for many years, and today I say goodbye to a great guitarist and a true legend of heavy music.

My deepest condolences to his family, friends, and fans.

Rest in peace, Phil.

Your music will live forever.

-Udo

FROM SCHMIER (DESTRUCTION): 

 

R.I.P. Phil - you were a true gentleman, one of a kind. I am shocked.

Devastating news while I sit on a broken down tourbus in Seattle … all the fun time we spent will cherish my life till my last day!

You showed us as young kids how it’s done! Thank you for everything, I am heartbroken and deeply saddened, we lost one of the best!

Last time I saw you, you had the most amzing and funny stories from back in the 80’s, those were the days! Wild times …

Now say hello to Wurzel and to “the Animal” and please continue to bend that sweet note and your amazing tone in Rock n Roll heaven!

What a bad day for all of us …

 

 

 FROM OVERKILL: 

 RIP Phil. Thoughts go out to your family, friends and band members @phil_campbell_and_the_bs @officialmotorhead

 

 

FROM BECKY BALDWIN (FURY): 

 My first concert I begged my parents to let me go to was Official Motörhead in Bristol in October 2005. I still wear the merch I bought that day, and I distinctly remember standing in front of Phil Campbell and letting the speakers rattle through me, thinking “this is the best feeling in the world”. Many years later, my band Fury got the chance to tour with Phil Campbell and the Bastard Sons through Europe, and was so lucky to call him and his badass family my friends. So we didn’t know one another for many years, but I’ll always remember his kindness and support for others and fantastic sense of humour. I’m sure I’ll still hear more and more stories of pranks and general wild touring activities from others I meet in this world of rock n’ roll. I’ll miss his recommendations on where I can find a good pint of cider wherever I am in the world, and I won’t forget those dozens and dozens of times I watched Phil play. Another legend who had utmost respect for his fans and never wanted to stop. Thank you Phil, rest easy

 

 FROM DORO: 

 

I'm at a loss for words. This is so sad... Phil, it was an honor to call you a friend. We will never forget you! Rest in peace!

FROM OPETH: 

 

”We extend our warmest condolences to the family and friends of Phil Campbell who recently passed away. He was a very nice guy and we met on a few occasions. Mainly festivals when Motörhead were on the bill with us. My most vivid memory of him is bowling together in Los Angeles once, a long time ago. Him and Martin Lopez hit it off I believe. I can’t remember bowling myself that evening, but maybe I was? Phil came across as a very warm and gentle guy without any boring rockstar mannerism (even if he definitely was a rockstar!). It was fun to hang with him. He was cracking jokes left, right and centre and made everybody feel calm. You know, meeting an idol can be intimidating, but with him you felt welcome and just part of the gang. He was also a superb guitarist. Old school and quite underrated I’d say. He had that bluesy vibe to his playing that I always liked. Like Lemmy, Phil Campbell was one of a kind. They don’t make ’em like that anymore. It’s shocking he’s gone. And way too soon! He will be sorely missed by many.”

EINHERJER: SIGN RECORD DEAL WITH BY NORSE MUSIC, NEW ALBUM DUE SUMMER 2026

 

 

 

  Norwegian Viking metal warriors  EINHERJER have inked a record deal with  BY NORSE MUSIC as a new release is due summer 2026. 





EINHERJER, via SPOTIFY, are streaming the bands anticipated new live release "NORSE AND DANGEROUS ( LIVE...FROM THE LAND OF LEGENDS)", unleashed 8/5/2022 via NAPALM RECORDS.


EINHERJER unleashed "NORTH STAR", 2/26/2021 via NAPALM RECORDS.  

 

 

 

 

 

FROM EINHERJER: 

 

We have the pleasure of announcing our new partnership with Norwegian nordic metal pioneers Einherjer!

Einherjer was founded in 1993, on the western shores of Norway, in Haugesund. In the early years of Norwegian extreme metal in the 90s, they stood among those who gave voice to a distinctly Norse expression. Einherjer continues to draw inspiration from the same source that shaped their beginnings: the land, the sea, and the cultural memory carried forward through generations. For more than three decades, Einherjer has stood as one of the leading voices of Norse heavy metal, and continue to proove why they still are distinct and defining in the genre - not as an echo, but as a presence.

Founder of Einherjer, Frode Glesnes states:

"We are proud to join the roster of By Norse Music. The label represents a vision of music that is deeply rooted in Nordic culture, heritage and artistic integrity — values that have always been central to Einherjer. With a new album on the horizon, this feels like the right alliance at the right time. By Norse understands where we come from and where we want to go next, and we look forward to working together to bring the next chapter of Einherjer to the world."

Sonja Schuringa, A&R for By Norse adds:

"We’re thrilled to welcome Einherjer to the By Norse roster! From the very first listen, their music stood out with a distinct identity and a powerful artistic vision that immediately resonated with us. Their sound captures a rare balance of intensity, atmosphere, and artistic depth — a combination that fits perfectly with the spirit of By Norse Music. We’re excited to begin this journey together and proud to welcome Einherjer to the family!"
