GWAR: Footage From WACKEN OPEN AIR Festival Available

August 6, 2009

Video footage of GWAR's performance at this year's Wacken Open Air festival — which was held July 30 - August 1, 2009 in Wacken, Germany — can be viewed below (courtesy of "HeinDaddel666").

With mere weeks left before the release of GWAR's latest opus, "Lust in Space", the anticipation from their rabid fans is continuing to build. Since this is the band's 25th anniversary, GWAR has decided to do something that it has never done before: GWAR is making autographed copies of its new album available for pre-order at this location.

Quoth lead singer Oderus Urungus, "This task proved especially difficult as several GWAR members can't write, and in fact Flattus didn't even know his own name. Of the 8,000 sharpies used in the completion of this task, over 6,000 caps were lost, and the remaining markers were promptly rammed up my ass, where they will stay throughout our upcoming 'Lust In Space' tour."

Metal Blade Records has created a GWAR widget which you can check out below. The widget includes an MP3 of the new track "Let Us Slay", band photos, information about the album, and will soon have upcoming GWAR tour dates. Fans can also add the widget to their blogs and networking pages and it will update automatically with new tour dates, music, videos and more.

"Lust in Space" is set to drop August 18. The track listing for the CD is as follows:

01. Lust in Space
02. Let Us Slay
03. Damnation Under God
04. The UberKlaw
