GWARchive

I've been a GWAR fan for only a few years, and became obsessed with them very quickly. I'm definitely not the first person to try to archive as much GWAR content as possible, especially after the passing of Dave Brockie, but I still thought this would be a very fun project.

I want to drop some info here for anyone looking to either view a bunch of GWAR media, or help add to an archive.

For starters, this is the first time I've ever tried to make an archive of sorts. That being said, there's going to be many times where this isn't updated. My main focus right now is to gather older media, old videos, interviews, comics, movies, books, etc. and go from there. I plan on organizing it by year, as well as by media type. There will be things missing. Please feel free to suggest anything I may be missing in my ask.

Secondly, GWAR has done a LOT in the past 40 years. I'm simply trying to get down as much as possible onto this blog. While starting out, I was just mass-gathering media. Some things may be wrong. Whether it be a link is titled wrong or linked to the wrong thing, something is labeled incorrectly, even spelling errors or any misinformation, I accept any corrections. Archives are usually a collective effort anyways.

Despite that, as of writing this, I am the only one on this blog. So if it takes a while for something to get done, that would be why. This is entirely a personal project done in my free time.

As of current, my inbox is always open to suggestions or corrections.

Unfortunately I’ve only gotten the chance to see GWAR once, but I was very glad to have gotten the chance to see with with Static-X, my other favorite band. Years of following and years of intrigue led to this moment, and it was a night I will never forget.

First off, it's DONE! "BEYOND HELL" our latest and greatest studio release to date, is mixed and mastered and ready to drop on your heads! Produced by the amazing Devin Townsend, I can say with utmost confidence that this one is going to take yer fucking head off! The record doesn't get released til' Aug. 29th but that is not going to stop us from letting you hear the first single from the album. That's right, we actually have done a single for radio play in a desperate attempt to expand GWAR's dominion of this world to the FM airwaves! But what's this you say? That GWAR's music is simply TOO FUCKED UP to ever make it on the radio--well, yer right! And that's why, for the first time in GWAR history, we have covered someone else's music! But not just anybody! Nobody less than Alice Cooper, who is rumored to be a Scumdog himself! GWAR pays homage to the original master of shock rock, with a bone-crushing version of his most famous song--that's right, GWAR has covered "School's Out" as the anthem of the summer and the rallying cry for legions of fed-up drop-outs everywhere. Demand it from your local lame-ass radio station all summer long, and hear us play it live on the mammoth Sounds of the Underground tour, coming soon to a burning city near you! And just to catch you up on the various other GWAR activities, Slave Pit Television is going strong, with new chapters being added every week! The new video, "Bloodbath and Beyond", will be out this summer! As I mentioned earlier, we will be dominating the Sounds of the Underground tour all summer, and then this fall go on a HUGE headline tour. Plus I've had my pet hemmorhoid "Blinky" replaced with several more that are even nastier. Rejoice children, it's almost time---GWAR will amongst you soon!

The WAR PARTY is officially disbanded. Despite overwhelming support from the Muslim world, we have decided to forego our political aspirations and concentrate more on blowing AIDS- infested semen on underage gerbils. Fuck politics anyway. Pretending to be a political party didn't help much--as usual we failed to escape the planet, fell short of annihilating the entire human race, and couldn't even get an audition for “Celebrity Mouth-fuck”. But damn it we had a good time trying. I got eaten by Gor-Gor at least 250 times, chopped off countless heads (because I can't count), and pissed off Phil Anselmo. We returned to Europe , re-conquered Canada , and actually got on a festival tour (Sounds of the Underground, which we are already confirmed for this summer). That led to another headline tour, celebrating the 20 th anniversary of GWAR's de-thawing. In short, it was the busiest and most action-packed year in our blood-soaked history. And if I may be nice to you for one short moment, it was the undying devotion of the legions of GWAR fans out there that made it possible. Never in the history of rock has a band enjoyed the fanatical support of such a group of beautiful fucking freaks, especially when their heroes are trying to kill them. Sooner or later the entire world will be licking our toes, and your un-relenting support will be rewarded with an undying death. O.K., moment over, I hate you again.

So after a couple months of lying around the Slave Pit, we have raised ourselves from our shit-smeared divans and began the bloody business of preparing ourselves for the next onslaught of GWAR. You want details? You want song titles? Well forget it. But even as I type (breaking hundreds of computers in the process), the grinding gears of Slave Pit are inexorably preparing to unleash yet another onslaught upon your much-ravaged world, an onslaught that will hopefully be the final chapter in the sordid epic that chronicles GWAR's domination and eventual destruction of this place, our adopted home, this Toilet Earth. So enjoy this, the hush before the storm, because before you know it a worm-spewing goat penis is going to be rammed down you throat! Stay tuned, scum!
