Shenanigans ahoy! Japanese headcases Electric Eel Shock are to support The Bloodhound Gang in the USA and Europe throughout October and November.

It all started when EES did a few dates with The BHG last year and lead Bloodhound Jimmy Pop has become a massive fan, especially of the band's new album Beat Me. It was through Jimmy Pop that Bam Magera and the Jackass guys licensed ten EES tracks after seeing them live.

The UK dates for the tour are as follows:

November
Fri 4 Portsmouth Pyramids
Sat 5 Cardiff Cardiff University
Sun 6 Birmingham Carling Academy
Mon 7 Nottingham Rock City
Tue 8 Leeds Met University
Wed 9 London Astoria
Fri 11 Manchester Academy
Sat 12 Glasgow The Garage
Sun 13 Newcastle The Academy
Mon 14 Norwich The Waterfront
Tue 15 Bristol The Academy

Don't take DiS's word for it? Well, we're backed up by Lemmy, who says: "they are rock!" What more recommendation do you need?

Wow...that will be quite a tour. You know you all like the Bloodhound Gang secretly...well, the songs that aren't sub-Weezer plod-rock (i.e. not The Roof Is On Fire)

I have been a long time fan and I make no excuses for it. I loved their 'Use Your Fingers' album and have remained loyal ever since. Still loving their cover of 'Kids In America'

"I hope he grins like Jack Nicholson
And forces you to play agame called 'balls on chin'
And what happens next is all a blur
But you remember that Fist can be a verb"

Very uncool band, but hilarious lyric.
