Quoth Oderus, "We couldn't be more delighted to be back on Metal Blade. The alliance of metal's most prestigious label and metal's most incredible band shall form an UberKlaw of ten-fold devastation. When Gwar's new album, Lust in Space, drops in August, the world shall be forced to its knees in total submission to our confusing dominance! The release marks the 25th Anniversary of Gwar's thawing-out, and we proclaim a two-year celebration to herald this brain-melting event! Death to life! Up the Irish! Gwar is back on Metal Blade and bitter is their wrath!"


Brian Slagel comments: "I am honored and very excited to welcome Gwar back into the Metal Blade Family. We have had a tremendous relationship with them for a long time and we look forward to working with them again on their new album, Lust in Space."
