  GWAR - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
GWAR is a thrash metal, punk rock and shock rock band formed in 1985 by a collective of artists and musicians at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia.
GWAR was and is primarily a band of former art students, and this is reflected in the obscure references made in some of their songs, including mythology and history.
GWAR slowly won over the audience (who initially booed them) with their sense of humor, showing that they felt that their goal was giving the audience the same kind of fun they would get from a horror movie or funhouse.

The live GWAR experience is like nothing else, and it begins when you walk into the venue.
The idea of a GWAR live album might sound like a pointless exercise, because it's always the stage show people always remember, and not the music.
