Gwar

Oderous Urungus, lead singer of GWAR, recently posted a message on the DRT website where he discussed the band's upcoming album, titled "Beyond Hell", covering an Alice Cooper song, working with Devin Townsead, and SlavePit TV. Here is what he had to say:

OK scum, it is I,ODERUS URUNGUS, overlord of Toilet Earth and lead singer of the most dangerous band on this or any other planet--GWAR! Here to give you a quick update/review on the upcoming events and disasters that are set to plague this planet in the wake of GWAR's latest assault upon your sense and sensibility!

First off, it's DONE! "BEYOND HELL" our latest and greatest studio release to date, is mixed and mastered and ready to drop on your heads! Produced by the amazing Devin Townsend, I can say with utmost confidence that this one is going to take yer fucking head off! The record doesn't get released til' August, but that is not going to stop us from letting you hear the first single from the album. That's right, we actually have done a single for radio play in a desperate attempt to expand GWAR's dominion of this world to the FM airwaves! But what's this you say? That GWAR's music is simply TOO FUCKED UP to ever make it on the radio--well, yer right! And that's why, for the first time in GWAR history, we have covered someone else's music! But not just anybody! Nobody less than Alice Cooper, who is rumored to be a Scumdog himself! GWAR pays homage to the original master of shock rock, with a bone-crushing version of his most famous song--that's right, GWAR has covered "School's Out" (MP3 Available at This Location) as the anthem of the summer and the rallying cry for legions of fed-up drop-outs everywhere. Demand it from your local lame-ass radio station all summer long, and hear us play it live on the mammoth Sounds of the Underground tour, coming soon to a burning city near you!

And just to catch you up on the various other GWAR activities, Slave Pit Television (Viewable at this location) is going strong, with new chapters being added every week! The new video, "Bloodbath and Beyond", will be out this summer! As I mentioned earlier, we will be dominating the Sounds of the Underground tour all summer, and then this fall go on a HUGE headline tour. Plus I've had my pet hemmorhoid "Blinky" replaced with several more that are even nastier. Rejoice children, it's almost time---GWAR will amongst you soon!
