GWAR plays Denver's Summit Music Hall on Oct. 31.

With a heavy heart, we share the news that , its only female member, who was sent back in time from the year 69,000 to stop her band members from destroying the planet.

Vulvatron, real name Kim Dylla, joined the band in September of 2014 shortly . GWAR announced Dylla’s firing on :

GWAR, the world’s premier shock rock band, today announced that Kim Dylla was released from the band directly following the fall 2014 GWAR Eternal Tour, and will no longer perform with the group. Dylla played the character of Vulvatron, a buxom Scumdog from the distant future, on the band’s last national tour.

Shortly after she joined the band, we had a honest and sweet conversation with Dylla about the death of Brockie and her character’s backstory. , where her humanity and sense of humor makes it kind of sad to see her out of the group.
