EYEHATEGOD are currently supporting their fifth studio album, a self-titled set that was released by Philip Anselmo‘s Housecore Records in 2014, and the band is about to get an assist from Anselmo on a pair of shows.

Vocalist Mike IX Williams has had some health issues of late, so the group called upon Anselmo to fill in.


The Down and Superjoint singer will join the band for a New Orleans show at the Southport Music Hall on Aug. 19 as well as the band’s scheduled appearance at the 7th Annual GWAR-B-Q in Richmond, Va. on Aug. 20.
 
Williams issued a statement, revealing Anselmo has his blessing. “Due to some recent very important health issues I am dealing with, I would like to announce that Philip H. Anselmo (Down, Pantera, Superjoint etc..) will be filling in for me at two special EYEHATEGOD gigs; New Orleans, LA’s Southport Hall – August 19th and the 7th annual GwarBBQ – August 20th in Richmond, Va. Phil has my full blessings for these shows & with all forces willing, I will return to the stage as soon as I am physically able,” stated Williams in a Facebook posting.
