In what is easily our most explicit and offensive episode to date, GWAR stops by Inside Music to share their perspective on the human condition.
Recently, a Facebook page went viral for suggesting people gather in rural Nevada to raid Area 51, a secretive military base that allegedly houses alien life. Most wrote the page off as a joke, which it was, but several dozen people did meet to celebrate their mutual interest in extraterrestrial life. After all, wouldn’t it be great to know that we are not alone in the universe?
What many failed to realize during this craze was that aliens are already among us. GWAR has been decimating human beings around the world for decades with their unique take on rock and an unbelievable live show. The group is here on Earth to share their knowledge of the universe and cut mankind down to size. They are the judge and jury, the protectors of the heavens, and the ones we were made to worship.
Fans of GWAR find solace in the band’s ruthless approach to satire. Many followers have been doused in blood and other fluids, which often are projected from the corpses of political and cultural figures who are murdered during the group’s performances, and most would tell you such experiences are a right of passage. There is simply no show like a GWAR show.
During a recent stop in Grand Rapids, one member of GWAR sat down with Inside Music host James Shotwell to share his latest insights on the human condition. For nearly twenty minutes, the mysteries of the world’s most outrageous band are revealed in extremely graphic detail. From political leanings to new music, as well as sex, drugs, and the state of rock today, nothing is off-limits in this wild conversation. Enjoy!
