Meet GWAR's new Vocalists...

...yes, I said "vocalists." As in plural. The space rocker scumdogs have taken the unusual step of replacing the late Dave Brockie (aka Oderus Urungus) with two (!) new members - Blothar the Berserker and Vulvatron. While Blothar will apparently be the main/lead vocalist, Vulvatron is described as "co-lead vocalist," for whatever that's worth. The pair made their live debut with GWAR at the 2014 Riot Fest in Chicago in early September.



Vulvatron (whose onstage trademark will be blood-spewing boobies) has her own Twitter and Facebook pages, where she promises "if anyone sends me Candy Crush requests, I will hit them with my Blood Mace." I think Dave/Oderus would approve.

Glad they're moving forward. Brockie was a unique vocalist though. It will be interesting to hear how they sound.

Never heard this band before. not sure I am missing something though.

How is that even possible? You must be from Sweden haha

The one thing about these new members, me and my friend have been discussing, is that I think the humor just isn't the same. I watched a interview the other day with the new old guy (Mike Bishop/Beefcake) and he wasn't that funny. Even when he tried to be I rolled my eyes, but today I saw an interview that made me laugh so maybe theres hope. Heres the only thing in the interview that made me laugh

"Interviewer:This year marks 30 years of GWAR. Is it hard to stay relevant?"

"Blothar: humans have never been relevent to GWAR. If anything, the world seems to be catching up with GWAR. We used to be the only ones doing beheadings, and now it feels like everyone is getting in on the act."

Well, so much for Vulvatron. GWAR has announced that Kim Dylla, who played the new female Scumdog on their most recent tour, has been dismissed. Sounds like there was some ugliness behind the scenes:

It's really nice when you find out important things from people you consider to be your friends from posts on the internet and messages from strangers. There is something called basic respect not existing in that modus of communication. That being said, I'm currently looking for a new vocal gig with a serious metal band that likes to tour their asses off. Doesn't matter what style but no core b.s., no symphonic metal. Must be chill dudes and down with beer drinking hellraisers. Must not be threatened by strong women, no deep-seated drama. Location unimportant.

GWAR sez the Vulvatron character will return in the future, portrayed by a different person.

Missed this the first go around. Vulvatron?

Looks like she's lost the right to wear the blood spewing boobies!! 

My guess is that they will probably dress Tommy Thayer up to look like her and hope no-one will notice

Lots of mud slinging between the Gwar camp and Kim has been taking place on line. Supposedly she had actually been fired in Jan.
