Only recently, the annual intergalactic mutant GWAR-BQ had been announced with a hilarious 90-second-trailer. But if one hot afternoon in Richmond, Virginia this coming August is not enough to satisfy your monstrous needs for all that is GWAR, we suggest you check out the just announced tour dates of the band around Lord Oderus Ungus.

The “Fate of Chaos” tour will kick off on October 10th in Philadelphia, PA, and the last show will take place on November, 26th in Millvale, PA – you will find the entire list of tour dates at the end of this article. Even more so, they will not be on the road by themselves, the bands DevilDriver, Cancer Bats and Legacy of Disorder will share their stage (and we all know how that can end).

The honorable, warty Lord Oderus commented on the tour ahead:

Once again GWAR returns, hoof and nail, to our old stomping grounds, North America, on a tour of utter destruction, and this time nothing less than the greatest power in the universe will do as our primary victim! That’s right, this time GWAR, fresh from our battle with Death, takes on another of history’s biggest assholes…God himself! Seeing as we don’t have the new album done yet, we really had to do something spectacular…

Apparently, the devilish creatures will also be joined by a new band member replacing Flattus Maximus. It is not yet clear which of the former’s brothers will be the one replacing him, but his name will most definitely end with “-us”:

This tour will also see the arrival of a new Scumdog brother to aid GWAR in our quest to destroy everything that sucks. That’s right, I can finally reveal certain details regarding our new album…ever since our missing band mate Flattus Maximus took his leave of Earth, members of the Maximus tribe have been showing up at our Antarctic fortress, not only to pay their respects but also eat all of our food. And also lay tracks on the new album! You see, every member of the Maximus family rips on guitar (though Flattus taught them all they know), and they were anxious to help us fill the void left by Flattus. We have been working with his brothers Pustulus, Infecticus, Bubonus and even the shunned Corpulus…and right now they are fighting it out as to which one of them will stay here with the mighty GWAR for the “FATE OR CHAOS” Tour…and beyond! Get ready world, this fall shall see the birth of a new Scumdog!

Check out the tour dates, as well as some additional dates before the tour kicks off, after the jump.
