Insect Warfare, the great, no-bullshit, fuck-you-poseurs grindcore band that split up in ’07, has announced a string of reunion shows in the UK and Ireland later this year. The press release I received announcing said tour featured no quotes from anyone in the band, so here are my thoughts:

1. I’m jealous of everyone who lives in the UK and Ireland and can only hope these shows are followed by some US dates.
2. The fact that the band is playing thirteen shows in as many days with no breaks whatsoever is metal as fuck. ‘Cause we all know days off are for sissies.

Here’s some footage of Insect Warfare killing it, in case you’re not familiar with ‘em. You can get tour dates after the jump.
