GWAR Unleash “Tyrant King” Video Alongside New EP and Comic ‘The Return Of Gor Gor’

GWAR have dropped their latest multimedia release, The Return Of Gor Gor, a unique package combining a new EP with a 32-page comic book chronicling the wild adventures of the band’s fictional “long-lost, three-ton Tyrannosaurus Rex,” Gor Gor.

To coincide with the release, the band has premiered an official live performance-themed music video for the EP track “Tyrant King”, now available to watch below. Frontman Blöthar the Berserker offered a characteristically dark and humorous take on the song:

“There is no manual for being a good parent, but I am pretty sure your kids shouldn’t end up blowing dudes in a truck stop bathroom. My heart is broken! I tried to be a good mother. I guess they have to skin their own knees. Gor Gor, please come home. We love you.”
