While we wait for the Shudder premiere of This is GWAR on July 21st, the Scumdogs of the Universe have announced a new leg of North American dates for their “The Black Death Rager World Tour," in support of their critically acclaimed masterwork The New Dark Ages, which is out now on CD and digital via the band’s label Pit Records.
Support on the tour will be provided by Light the Torch, Nekrogoblikon and Crobot. A complete list of dates can be found below.
Additionally, GWAR's new graphic novel GWAR: In The Duoverse of Absurdity, which serves as a companion piece to their aforementioned album, is now available via the band's official cyber-fortress (aka their website).
Vocalist Blothar had the following to say about the graphic novel and tour announcement: "Long ago, GWAR broke the frame of what a rock concert can be. We’ve pushed the envelope of live performance for decades, but this time around, we wanted to do something different. This is the first GWAR show conceived to go along with a graphic novel and an album, all working together as one massive hunk of hot steaming shock rock performance ART! A can’t-miss cavalcade of chaos, a trash culture trilogy, a shocking extravaganza that will leave you utterly spent, soaking wet, and bawling uncontrollably. We’ve got the coolest storyline, unbelievable new characters, more blood, gore, and gags than ever before. Come, unload your worries, human scum, and let GWAR transport you to the Duoverse of absurdity just in time for the NEW DARK AGE!"
