Satirical heavy metal legends GWAR have ripped into supergroup Hellyeah during a show last night in The States at Hampton Beach, NH. Frontman Oderus Urungus let his feelings be known about the group, which consists of members from Mudvayne and Pantera.
Before the band launched into The Uberklaw from their 2009 album, Lust in Space, Urungus said:
“How ’bout that new Hellyeah record? Pretty good, huh? What a great name for a band — Hell, yeah. That is so awesome. How did those fat, stupid dudes from Texas ever come up with something so awesome? How did those fat, dumbass, tattooed ignorant, inbred fucks ever come up with such an amazing idea as Hellyeah? Wow, Stephen Hawking, move over! Hahahahaha!”

GWAR’s long-time guitarist, Cory Smoot aka Flattus Maximus, was found dead on the band’s tour bus in December last year. It was later revealed that Smoot died of “coronary artery thrombosis.”
