GWAR w/ Every Time I Die and Ghoul

As if there wasn't already enough fake blood blanketing the city for Halloween weekend, costumed warlords from space GWAR return to the Rave for another over-the-top performance. Over the decades GWAR has become less a parody of metal excesses than of themselves, doubling down on obscene comedy. The group's latest record, 2010's Bloody Pit of Horror, is no exception, but it grinds heavier and hits harder than most of the band's recent work.
