"We are going to rape the sh*t out of some hobbits," declared GWAR "singer", Oderus Urungus. "And I don't even care if they are humans dressed up in hobbit costumes, that sh*t turns me on..."

Gwar's new album, "Gwar's Bloody Pit of Horror" comes out this November on Metal Blade Records in the U.S., AFM in Europe, and distributed by King Records in Asia.

There is no doubt that as Gwar's 25th Anniversary approaches its halfway point, making the event a two-year celebration was a good idea. "What does time matter, anyway?" said Oderus, reached via carrier-pigeon at the group's Antarctic stronghold. "If things keep going this well, we will add more years as needed...then, when we finally have drained every drop of hype we possibly can from our 25th Anniversary, we will proceed directly to our 50th, which we will celebrate for an indefinite period."
