GWAR Announces Co-Headline Tour Dates With Hatebreed!
Intergalactic mutants GWAR and metalcore heavyweights Hatebreed are co-headlining a short run of gigs in September. GWAR has also confirmed a new festival date, appearing at Chicago’s “Riot Fest” for the second year in a row. Joining the fun will be Richmond, VA’s Iron Reagan, featuring members of Municipal Waste and Cannabis Corpse.
GWAR is gearing up for the 4th Annual GWAR-B-Q (Tickets Are On Sale Now) and the release of a new album in the early fall. Razor and Tie recording artists Hatebreed will be continuing their support of their newest release, “The Divinity of Purpose.”
Hatebreed frontman Jamey Jasta had this to say about the upcoming mini-tour:
“We’re extremely happy to finally hook up some GWAR/Hatebreed dates after years of trying to get our schedules to connect! We’ll have spent this entire summer rocking stages in Europe so it will be great to get back to the good ole USA, to get down & dirty in the clubs with our favorite mutants from Antarctica. These gigs are not to be missed!”
GWAR front-thing Oderus made a simpler comment. “GWAR and Hatebreed together is really gonna fuck some people up.”

CLUTCH Gear Up For European Tour – New North American Tour Dates Announced!
Maryland rockers clutch are off to Europe this week for a five week tour that includes festival dates and club shows. CLUTCH have announced the next North American legs of the “Earth Rocker” World Tour. The tour starts in Edmonton Alberta for the Alberta’s Own Festival. The US run of dates kicks off September 14th in Baltimore, MD with an appearance at “The Shindig Festival”. Support on the headline tour in September will come from The Sword and Crobot.

Tickets for fan club members go on sale Wednesday June 5th and for the general public on Friday June 7th and Saturday June 8th. Go to pro-rock.com for fan club early ticketing.
In addition to the new dates, CLUTCH has also confirmed that they will be returning to the newly opened Starland Ballroom (which was severely damaged by Hurricane Sandy), this December as part of their annual holiday tour. Dates for the rest of the holiday shows will be announced later.
Any fan’s dream is to know what it’s like to be on the road with a Rock and Roll band, but you may be surprised to see what it’s really like – long periods of boredom, broken up by brief periods of intense activity and most of all hard work. The working man’s Rock and Roll Band CLUTCH will be posting a tour blog throughout their European tour on how it really is. The first post is available today and can be read on the band’s Facebook Page and http://www.pro-rock.com.
Frontman Neil Fallon recently taped an appearance for VH1 Classic’s “That Metal Show”. The episode is set to air July 13th on VH1 Classic. More details can be found on the VH1 Classic Website.
Earth Rocker was released March 19th via the band’s label Weathermaker Music. The album entered the Billboard Top 200 chart at #15 achieving the band’s highest chart position to date. The album then proceeded to hold its own on the Billboard Top 200 for a total of 5 weeks. The album also came in at #1 on the Hard Music Chart and #3 on the Independent Album Chart. The digital demand for this album continues to be very strong. In the week of release Earth Rocker shot to #4 on iTunes’ overall Top 100 album charts and was #1 in their rock chart.
Earth Rocker is available for purchase at the CLUTCH Merch Store.

CLUTCH’s Earth Rocker Enters Billboard Charts at #15!
Sales and Radio Charting Hit Record Marks World Wide!
Last week saw the WEATHERMAKER MUSIC release of the highly anticipated new studio album Earth Rocker from CLUTCH. Earth Rocker entered the Billboard Top 200 Charts at #15 marking the highest Billboard Chart debut in the band’s storied career. The album came in at #1 on the Hard Music Chart and #3 on the Independent Album Chart.
In addition to the impressive chart positions stateside, the band continues their global domination entering the German Top 100 Media Control Chart at #71. In the UK Earth Rocker charted at #50 on the Top 200 Album Chart, #3 on the Top Rock and Metal Albums Chart and #11 on the Top Independent album chart.
Earth Rocker is continuing to make an impact at radio. The album is #1 at CMJ Loud Rock, and their second single, “Crucial Velocity” was added to SiriusXM channels Octane, Liquid Metal and Faction. The band has also released a lyric video for “Crucial Velocity”. The video was done by animator James Appleton and can be viewed HERE.
“WEATHERMAKER MUSIC is thrilled with this result. The release campaign began 6 months ago. We executed on our worldwide plan by integrating touring, promotion, retail and digital marketing as well as Specialty/Metal and Active Rock radio campaigns in a perfect sequence. Our partners around the world backed us up. RED Music’s extraordinary support made much of this possible. But in the end none of it would have been the same without this great album. CLUTCH is the quintessential American rock band!” says WEATHERMAKER MUSIC Label Manager Stefan Koster.
