I have just started listening to GWAR properly and i was wondering if some people could recomend some songs i should listen to albums to hunt down and stuff the avoid at all costs!!

Thanks!

You can't really go wrong with a Gwar album, Scumdogs of the Universe, America Must Be Destroyed and for total stupidness Carnival of Chaos are probably my favourites though. Waaa I want to see them live againnnnnnn!

Yeah they've not really gone wrong in my book.

Not sure what Mr.2's opinion will be, but they have been a class act throughout imo.

Try and find some of their movies as well, rather silly fun.

War Party was a solid album, great live to.

They went wrong with some stuff on Ragnarok, Don't Need a Man on Carnival of Chaos (the wtf scales broke with that one) and kind of with We Kill Everything, which was by far their stupidest album.

Best albums in my opinion are Scumdogs of the Universe, America Must be Destroyed, Violence Has Arrived and War Party, but all of them are brilliant in their own way. Hell-O is their first album, dodgy recording quality but it's an amazing album, not technically good, just good listening, and funny too, and not in a stupid way.

I reccomended some songs to a mate a while ago, so if you're just looking for individual songs for now then try some of these:

GWAR Theme
Black and Huge
Crack in the Egg
Have you Seen Me?
The Insidious Soliloquy Of Skulhed Face (Sung by Mr Dr Professor Skulhed Face(GWAR's enemy))
BDF
Ragnarok (which is sung by Sexicutioner)
Private Pain of Techno Destructo (Sung by Techno Destructo (Another of GWAR's enemies))
Hate Love Songs (Sung by Beefcake the Mighty)
A Short History of the End of the World
Jagermonsta
Immortal Corruptor (Essential listening!!!)
The Song of Words
Womb with a View
Bonesnapper (The Faces of the Slain)
War is All We Know
Tormentor


To name a few.

Video/Film wise - Phallus in Wonderland is a must, and the live dvd Tour De Scum is the best of their live releases I think.

Good luck, have fun, and remember, it's not rape if it's dead!

Good list, Rock and Roll Never Felt So Good and The Performer are underrated tracks too..

They played RNRNFSG when I saw them in Novemeber, it was sexy, except they didn't defile a limbless rubber 13 year old.... lame.

That's one of my total favourites of theirs.

Penguin Attack

probably stating the bleedin' obvious here but I take it you all know they've been booked for Bloodstock this year.
