Gwar Working On First Album Without Dave Brockie

(TeamRock Radio) Gwar have confirmed they're working on their first album since the death of frontman Dave Brockie, aka Oderus Urungus. The singer died from an accidental heroin overdose in 2014, with the band continuing to tour after his death to mark their 30th anniversary.

Now they say work will commence on the follow-up to 2013's Battle Maximus - and they say the writing process has begun. They say in a statement: "Yes, Gwar has united itself to record yet another disasterpiece and it has been secretly in the writing phase for months in a crackhouse of seclusion in the northside of Chicago.

"A due date for the record has not been decided but the band is grinding out what may prove to be their most savage and bloodthirsty tracks to date." Read more here.
