W.A.S.P. premiere new song 'Last Runaway'


Almost six years have passed since the world saw a new studio album from W.A.S.P. This October 9th, the wait ends, as Blackie Lawless and the legendary rockers W.A.S.P. will release their long awaited new album and Napalm Records debut Golgotha. Today the first single "Last Runaway" from Golgotha has been released. You can listen to it here:

Frontman Blackie Lawless on "Last Runaway":
"40 years ago I came to Hollywood as a teenager. Terrified and scared out of my mind, I had no idea what waited there for me. The song 'Last Runaway' is an intensely personal account of what happened to me, not only then but over the years and the success that followed after. Be it a kid looking for success in the music business or any life challenging endeavor that someone would 'runaway' from in life, I'm certain that everyone can relate to this story one way or another. It's another kid "chasing the dream' and trying to survive it in the process... We've all been there!"

Golgotha track listing:

01. Scream
02. Last Runaway
03. Shotgun
04. Miss You
05. Fallen Under
06. Slaves of the New World Order
07. Eyes of My Maker
08. Hero of the World
09. Golgotha

W.A.S.P. came out of the Los Angeles metal scene in 1982 gaining notoriety for their shock rock antics. With a career spanning over three decades, 17 world tours and now their 15th studio album, they are a metal band that has evolved in maturity without having lost their signature sound, unlike many of their peers from their origins. Golgotha will continue down the path that 2007's Dominator and 2009's Babylon started on, both in production style and theme.
