GWAR playing NYC on Halloween, touring with Hatebreed (and other dates)

GWAR will be back on the road this fall, including a fun of dates with Hatebreed. “Humans, come, witness the eviscerating, ear splitting majesty and power of GWAR and Hatebreed! Yes, demonstrate your ceaseless dedication to heavy fucking metal in the Pit of Death. There is a very good chance you won’t survive!” says GWAR’s The Berserker Blothar, while Hatebreed’s Jamey Jasta notes, “Autumn is a lovely time of year to team up w/ GWAR and crush every city in our path. There will be mosh pits, blood, carnage & chaos.” The run with Hatebreed also includes metallic hardcore greats Ringworm, and all of GWAR’s fall dates are with Miss May I and American Sharks.

While their joint tour does not hit NYC, GWAR will once again headline Irving Plaza on Halloween (with Miss May I and American Sharks). Tickets for that show will be on sale soon.

Before the fall dates, GWAR will play some festivals, including Gathering of the Juggalos, Beach Goth, Louder Than Life, Riot Fest and more. All dates are listed below.
