The 18-date October run includes supporting sets from Negative Approach, X-Cops and Cancer Christ on select dates.
Currently laying waste to cities across the U.S. on The Psychotherapy Sessions Tour with Mudvayne and Coal Chamber, Gwar have laid out plans for their own headlining trek set for later this year.
The Age of Imbeciles Tour will span some 18-dates throughout the month of October and will feature a vile supporting cast with sets from Negative Approach, X-Cops and the grotesque gospel of Cancer Christ on select dates.
News of the extended headlining run adds to the band’s already extensive touring slate which includes headlining dates interspersed with their amphitheater plays on the The Psychotherapy Sessions run. The dates include support from Crobot, 200 Stab Wounds and Nonpoint.
GWAR also have several confirmed festival plays on deck, with appearances at Rocklahoma, Muddy Roots festival, The Fest in Florida, Lamb of God’s Headbangers Boat and a play in Mexico this fall at Hell & Heaven Festival all in the books.
Speaking of the recent addition to their live itinerary, The Berserker Blothar shared of the upcoming blitz. “Attention People of Earth! Halloween is coming, and your world is up in flames. You’re a bunch of hairless apes with the smoothest of all brains. We see you there, groping in the chaos of maddening darkness. GWAR is coming to end your suffering, to bring a close to the Age of Imbeciles.”
IGWAR also recently announced the release of the tenth anniversary Edition of their Battle Maximus due September 1st via Pit Records. This updated version boasts remixed and remastered audio and features the final recorded vocal performance of Oderus Urungus on the previously unreleased, never-before heard song “Tammy, Queen of Dirt.”
A complete list of GWAR dates can be found below. Tickets for the Age of Imbeciles Tour go on sale Friday, August 17th at 10:00am local time.
