In case you haven’t heard yet, GWAR have a new album, Battle Maximus, coming out on September 17th on Metal Blade. The band’s 13th album, it’s also their first to feature new guitarist Pustulus Maximus. But enough about that. As good as any GWAR album will ever be, it’ll always pale in comparison to the band’s ridiculous stage show.
On that front, the band have announced a massive Fall tour in support of the album that will see them playing around the States and Canada. The “Madness at the Core of Time” tour will see them joined by Whitechapel, Iron Reagan and A Band of Orcs. At right around the midway point of the tour, they’ll be playing Philip H. Anselmo’s Housecore Horror Festival. Scroll down for the dates and the track listing of the album.
