Fresh off their amazing appearance on the “Howard Stern Wrap Up Show” where they performed the Electric Comicbook (Howard Stern’s Middle School Band) classic “Silver Nickels, Golden Dimes”, Gwar has once again returned to The AV Club to take part in their “Undercover Series”.
This marks Gwar’s record-breaking 5th appearance at The AV Club, where they won the title of best cover of the year four years in a row. This of course was accomplished with their covers of Kansas, Billy Ocean, Pet Shop Boys and Cyndi Lauper classics.
On this particular visit, Gwar gets started with a little bit of “Foreplay” from Boston, before rocking out with their take on AC/DC’s “If You Want Blood.”
Following this triumph, Gwar will return to their Antarctic Fortress for the winter as they work on their new album and first release featuring the Berserker Blothar.
One more thing – Gwar would not leave you without something special for Record Store Day this year. That’s right, on Record Store Day (11/25/17) AKA Black Friday, Gwar will release a limited edition picture disc called “Black Friday” featuring their covers of Billy Ocean’s “Get Outta My Dreams, Get Into My Car” and “West End Girls” from The Pet Shop Boys. “Get outta My Dream’s Get Into My Car” will be on Side A (Oderus). This was Dave Brockie AKA Oderus Urungus’ final recording with Gwar. Side B (Blothar) “West End Girls” was the first recording by Gwar featuring new singer Blothar.
