It's only been a few days since the passing of GWAR frontman Dave Brockie (aka Oderus Urungus) and the entire metal world is still in mourning. Many heartfelt tributes have been extended by musicians and fans, but nothing has been said by GWAR's camp. However, GWAR have just released their first official statement commenting on Brockie's death.
GWAR have been purveyors of intergalactic metal since 1985, but contrary to popular belief, the members of GWAR are actually humanoid begins in alien costumes. The costumes do come off, but it's not as easy as you think to secure a photo of various GWAR members uncovered.
Has animation turned GWAR's Oderus Urungus soft? That's the basis behind a new 'Funny or Die' "GWARtoon" created by animators Myke Chillian and Tommy Meehan that has just surfaced via the comedy website.
Parents are becoming lazier and lazier. We don't really blame you, as binge-watching a marathon of 'The Walking Dead' is much more satisfying than putting your screaming little infant to bed. In fact, we want to help. That's why we recruited GWAR front-thing Oderus Urungus to help put your kids to sleep with a very NSFW rendition of 'Goodnight Moon.'
Earlier this month, we reported on a Change.org petition demanding that GWAR perform at the 2015 NFL Super Bowl halftime show. With nearly 40,000 signatures already attained, GWAR themselves have publicly endorsed the petition, urging human fans to keep the signatures coming.
Finally there's a petition we can all get behind. Regardless of political ideology, socioeconomic status, race or religion, we can all agree that GWAR deserves to perform at the 2015 NFL Super Bowl Halftime Show.
FUSE TV sent GWAR out to the suburbs of New Jersey to Trick or Treat. Apparently residents knew that something was going to happen, but these folks had no idea GWAR were coming.
At some point or another, everybody has heard 'Carry On Wayward Son.' It's one of those classic rock songs that you just can't avoid. Not everybody has heard it being covered by GWAR though.
GWAR vocalist Oderus Urungus, aka Dave Brokie, has regretfully announced his exit from an upcoming Randy Blythe benefit show that was due to take place Aug. 31 in Richmond, Va.
Megadeth frontman Dave Mustaine has been very outspoken on politics in recent weeks, which has put him at odds with some of his fans. Perhaps no one is more at odds with his beliefs than GWAR frontman Oderus Urungus, who said, ‘Keep your f—ing mouth shut Dave Mustaine. Play your f—ing guitar.”
It may be hard to believe but vocalist Corey Taylor says that not only is a Slipknot/Mushroomhead tour possible -- he'd also like to get Mudvayne and GWAR on board.
