We Kill Everything
GWAR
A CD Review |
|
 |
As the last track on this CD was playing, my secretary
was getting into the music. It had a fun beat, kinda catchy,
but she wasn’t paying attention to the lyrics. I asked her
if she kinda liked this song, and she told me she sort of
did. Then I told her the song was called “Fuckin’ An
Animal.” At first she was appalled, then she remembered this
was GWAR, and then she was just worried that somewhere in
the lyrics it might mention a giraffe, since she loves
giraffes (no, not in the way of the title of the song), so I
checked the lyrics and much to her relief, I informed her
things were pretty much kept to dogs, geese, and a moose.
Look, GWAR is GWAR, space aliens who also are very
talented metal musicians, constantly fighting their enemies.
Their CD’s and concerts usually try to tell a story, but
mostly what you get is some great punk metal that, yea,
might offend some, but if you get beyond being offended, you
do have to admire some of the guitar work and just the
balls-outness of the band. And if you also want a great
time, check out their live show – it’s still one of the best
times I’ve had at a concert. For what it is supposed to be,
“We Kill Everything” does it all, and although this might
ruin my credibility as a music reviewer, I’m giving it 95%
on the Entertainment Ave! listenability scale.
That’s it for this quick review! I’m The Dude on the
