Customer Reviews:

Skip the albums...but attend the shows!.......2006-03-19

I went and seen Gwar in November, and it was an awesome show, especially when they brought in George Bush Jr on stage, disemboweling him before the song "You Cant Kill Terror"

you will get wet by the way!

their albums are nothing to scream about..very straight forward rock music...I would be embarrased to listen to this in publick...I mean, seriously...would you listen to the song "Sex Cow" while cruising in your car?

so, skip their albums, but do go to their shows, they are a blast

OK album but IMO GWAR's worst.......2005-12-25

I tried to get into this album as much as I could but some songs such as "Sammy", "Letter from the Scallop Boat", "Endless Apocalypse", and "Don't Need a Man" just aren't up to GWAR standards while others such as "Back to Iraq", "First Rule Is", "Peguin Attack", "If I Could Be That", "Hate Love Songs", "In Her Fear", and "Antarctican Drinking Song" are amazing. "Sex Cow" and "I Suck on my Thumb" I also enjoy for laughs.

Classic GWAR!.......2005-09-10

I think this is GWAR's most underated album. Apparently a lot of GWAR fans don't like it, though it's gotten a lot of good reviews here. This is kind of an experamental record for GWAR. Sort of along the lines of "This Toilet Earth". It's not as heavy as other GWAR albums, though there are many heavy songs to chose from here. This record also features songs sung by: Beefcake- "I Hate Love Songs", Techno Destructo- "The Private Pain of Techno Destructo", and Slymenstra Hymen- "I Don't Need a Man". All 3 of these are really good songs! "The Private Pain of Techno Destructo" is actually a remake of "Techno's Song" from "Hell-o". This version is absolutly brilliant! One of the best songs on the record. It's much heavier and cleaner than the origional, and it shows just how good those songs off of their first album really are.

There's really not a bad song on this CD but I think it does take about 2 maybe 3 listens before you'll really fall in love with it. It's hard to pick a favorite amongst this cornicopia of songs but, my favorites would be: "Sammy", which is a song about Sammy Davis Jr. "First Rule Is" which is a heavy and driving song, 'In Her Fear" which simply just kicks a$$, Techno's song, as I stated before, and "Letter From The Scollop Boat" which is in my opinion the funniest song since "Slaughter-rama" I laugh every time I hear it.

I think the fans that don't like this album, probably haven't given it much of a chance, or else they're just not open to any kind of change. But me, I miss this side of GWAR! It's very creative, funny, and no holds barred. Don't get me wrong I also love the other side of GWAR. "War Party" is an amazing album! But I think it would be very cool if every so often they gave us another "Carnival" or "Toilet Earth". After all some of GWARS very best music has come out of these two albums. And NOBODY makes music like this. At least not anything good.

C.O.C........2005-09-08

I don't care what ANYONE says, this is one of my FAVORITE GWAR CDs. They go out on a different path on this one, and it's a good change. The songs are catchy and cool. It's a very creative album. Some GWAR fans think everything has to be heavy, heavy, heavy. Heavy isn't everything. This album has heavy moments, but for the most part, it's a great rock/punk concept album.

GWAR rules this and any other world!.......2005-05-13

Fan of GWAR since '99, I have loved these guys. I just got America Must Be Destroyed and this one. AMBD is a very heavy album laden with gross lyrics and The Road Behind is the song that I remember the most. As for this one, I got it because I read so many bad reviews of it online and I couldn't believe that these guys could make a bad album. I bought Hell-O! and loved it! I bought this not expecting a lot seeing as how it is considered worse than Hell-O!, but I got something I didn't expect. I found my new favorite album, replacing War Party! I don't know why, but this album is just spectacular. I don't have Scumdogs, Ragnarok, or The Road Behind EP, but I still think this might be their best. I don't know why I like this one so much, but it just hit a nerve with me on the first listen. Any GWAR fan should own this one, even if they don't listen to it. It's not nearly as heavy as some of their other releases, but I don't like GWAR just because they can be really, really heavy, although I know they can be. I look for songs that I can remember and this one is chock full of them.

1. Penguin Attack - An awesome, in your face song about an attack of mutant penguins. Pretty funny lyrics and the music is awesome.
2. Let's Blame the Lightman - A great song musically, but not so much lyrically. It is pretty catchy.
3. First Rule Is - Great heavy song about something, but I don't know what it is. Awesome guitars and drums.
4. Sammy - One of my personal favorites! This song is an epic with just awesome music and the vocals compliment it very well.
5. Endless Apocalypse - My second favorite! I just love this song. The lyrics are great, but the best part is the music.
6. Billy Bad Ass - A bit odd, but still pretty good. Not so much funny, but just catchy.
7. Hate Love Songs - I love this song and Beefcake has the perfect vocals for this song. The lyrics are very good and this song could be on the radio.
8. Letter From the Scallop Boat - A very good song that seems like Oderus was either drunk, high, or both. The lyrics are pretty odd, but the music and the beat are there.
9. Pre-skool Prostitute - Very funny song with awesome guitars, but the best part is the drums. Jizmak rules this song without a doubt.
10. If I Could Be That - The lyrics are very repetitive but the song is oddly catchy. A great song that seems like it shouldn't be.
11. In Her Fear - I really didn't expect this to be very good looking at the lyrics, but it really snagged me and wouldn't let me go.
12. Back To Iraq - A great song for war veterans, but a pretty hard song for this album. I think it could have worked on AMBD as well.
13. I Suck on My Thumb - A very, very weird song. I found myself reading it wondering if I should skip it, but then I heard it and I loved it.
14. The Private Pain of Techno Destructo - Another excellent song from Techno Destructo that is an excellent hard rock, not exactly metal, sounding song.
15. Gonna Kill U - A song called Gonna Kill U. I thought it would be heavy, but boy was I surprised and I think that it works better the way it is.
16. Sex Cow - My favorite on this album! Not because of the title, but because when I heard the beginning I laughed so hard. I didn't know that when they said it sounded like a Hillbilly song, that they literally meant that it sounded like a Hillbilly song. It is hilarious!
17. Antarctican Drinking Song - A short but hard song. It is fun to sing along with and sounds just like a drinking song.
18. Don't Need a Man - Slymenstra's slow song that I thought was very different for this band. I listened to it, because I love so many different styles of music, and it is absolutely wonderful. Sly can really sing.

I love this album because every song to me is a winner. I thought This Toilet Earth was their most diverse, but I was wrong. This album really showcases GWAR's talent as musicians, but with some of the lyrics they've been writing lately I think that they could make an album that could rule this entire nation, maybe even the whole world. I'd rather they stay under the radar though so as to avoid censorship. GWAR is the greatest band ever and I will always love them. Pick this up and make your own decision, don't avoid what could be your favorite because of a lot of negative reviews.

P.S. I'm not lying, this is my new favorite album. GO OUT AND GET IT!
