Commented GOATWHORE bassist James Harvey:
"It has been a while since we toured with our friends in EXHUMED and CEPHALIC CARNAGE. We are looking forward to having some chaos injected nights of wicked Metal with them all."
He added, "Things are going great in the studio with Rutan. He's a master and definitely brings out the best in us!"
GOATWHORE was honored in the "Best Heavy Metal" category at the Big Easy Awards, which was held on 25th April at Harrah's in New Orleans, Louisiana. Also nominated for the award were Arson Anthem and Haarp. GOATWHORE drummer Zack Simmons and guitarist Sammy Duet accepted the gong.
The Big Easy Awards in 2010 recognize achievement in local music and theater from 2010.
