You won’t believe this, but it’s as true as their presence. Yes, the chaotic intergalactic band GWAR met the NPR. They not only just met but GWAR four different songs for the audience. To the astonishment of their dedicated fans, known as Bohabs, GWAR made an unexpected appearance on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert series, seizing the opportunity to showcase their unique brand of absurd awesomeness.
The Scumdog of the Universe squeezed into the limited space of the NPR office and tested the audience to a four-song set featuring their tracks “Sex Cow,” “I’ll Be Your Monster,” “Ratcatcher,” and “Phantom Limb.” The experience was a wild and unforgettable collision of GWAR’s signature style and the intimate setting of the Tiny Desk Concert series.
While GWAR refrained from their typical outrageous antics, such as celebrity murders and spraying fake semen, they did not disappoint their fans in terms of musical creativity. In a surprising twist, they invited their beloved maestro, Willhelm Fartwrangler, to conduct a rendition of “Sex Cow in G-flat Minor,” a track from their 1997 album, Carnival of Chaos.
Embracing the song’s country vibe, the costumed headbangers performed a lively rendition without shying away from incorporating NPR-friendly lyrics like “Licking and sticking and piercing the pud/Blowing and hoeing and covered in mud.” Even in a slightly tamer environment, GWAR managed to infuse their signature irreverent spirit into the performance.
Blothar the Berserker’s comment on NPGWAR
Blothar the Berserker humorously remarked about what the band referred to as “NPGWAR,” stating, ‘We picked up valuable lessons from the do-gooders at NPR. For instance, we’ve learned how to express it as ‘Your current support is crucial for GWAR to continue delivering high-quality cultural and educational content that immerses you in bodily fluids and ignites shame.’
‘While NPR may offer coffee cups and fancy totes, we can offer your soul everlasting torment. So, contribute to GWAR today.’ Blothar the Berserker cleverly highlighted the contrast between GWAR’s unique style of entertainment and NPR’s more conventional offerings, urging listeners to support the band in their own distinctive way.
What’s the craziest thing existing on earth?
Without giving any second thoughts, the answer must be GWAR, obviously. For nearly four decades, GWAR has been an astonishing planet Earth with its excessively gore-filled live performances and grotesque look. These intergalactic warriors have ventured into various ventures, including comic books, beer, BBQ sauce, and even adult toys.
However, their most significant contribution lies in the creation of some of the most risque, absurd, and catchy heavy metal songs. The GWAR has carved a unique and unapologetic niche for itself. Beyond the shock value, however, lies a band of talented musicians who have honed their craft to perfection. The band has, however, opened out some of the most popular songs, including “Saddam a Go-Go,” “Immortal Corrupter”, “Sick of You”, “Bring Back the Bomb,” “Fuck This Place,” and “The Road Behind” among many others.
The so-called mythology behind the GWARs
GWAR has its own story to tell, which goes as follows:
GWAR’s legend is intertwined with the history of our desolate planet, yet its origins lie far beyond this realm. Originating in the depths of outer space, the future members of GWAR were once part of an esteemed fighting unit, Scumdogs of the Universe. Serving as loyal followers to an enigmatic being called Master, their individual reputations grew tarnished as intergalactic failures.
Consequently, they were exiled and given a futile mission to conquer the insignificant speck of a world known as Earth. Once here, GWAR reshaped the very landscape, unleashing destruction and reconstruction upon the natural order, influencing the course of human history. Viewed as extraterrestrials by some and revered as gods or demons by others, the former Scumdogs engaged in unions with primates, giving birth to the human race through a planned, fateful event that proved to be catastrophic.
