ITP V.011 EDITORIAL: ALL HAILS TO GWAR \m/ -l-



GWAR are one of the longest running cult metal bands in American metal. A band that needs to be seen live to be understood. GWAR were actually banned by the religious right in Virginia back in the 80's and have survived for over 25 years in metal. It's always funny to take a friend to a GWAR show that's never seen the band before, and LMAO, watch the look on their face as they come out of the slave pit soaking wet with fake blood. GWAR are band, I have no shame in saying this, I'm actually addicted to seeing them live, and I have so much fun crowd surfing, stage diving, and just watching the band dismember everything, celebrities, politicians, YOU and getting soaking wet. I have so many, CRAZY stories about GWAR shows, the pits, the red blood (artificial food coloring, it comes off in the wash).
GWAR work hard to consistently put on great shows/tours for all of us.
I can't imagine extreme metal without this KULT thing called GWAR. HAILS to GWAR, condolences to all of CORY SMOOT (Flattus Maximus-GWAR guitarist) friends, family, fans and bandmates stay with us brothers, and RIP TO CORY SMOOT.


Thanks-Stay Metal, Stay Brutal-\m/ -l-
RIP Flattus Maximus (CORY SMOOT)
