Classic Album Review: Gwar | We Kill Everything

The cartoon-metal savages offer another LP that can't compete with their live show.

This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):

 


These masked, cartoon-metal savages have an act that makes Marilyn Manson look like Hanson — ridiculous quantities of comical gore, softcore sex and gooey bodily fluids.

Sadly, their cheeseball metal has never been able to compete with their must-see stage show. And the unlistenably stupid We Kill Everything continues that trend with 17 tracks booming with subpar metal bombast and flush with puerile, toilet-joke humour (literally, in the case of the song Jiggle The Handle). Save your bucks for a concert ticket.
