The Mighty Gwar Announce Tour with Whitechapel, Iron Reagan, and A Band of Orcs

We’re a little more than a month away from the release of the new Gwar album, Battle Maximus, which comes out September 17 on Metal Blade (stream the first single here). And, of course, a new Gwar album can only mean one thing: sexual deviance, and lots of it. Okay okay, so it can actually mean TWO things: sexual deviance, and a new Gwar tour!!!

Gwar tours are always awesome, ’cause Gwar’s live show is ricockulous. But they’ve got some cool support bands just to sweeten the deal — namely Whitechapel, Iron Reagan, and Band of Orcs. In other words: YES PLEASE!
