In 97 i went to My first gwar concert. My Dad said "im glad that those interdimensional space Vikings are still harvesting souls". Now my child sent me this video. Im glad that they are still harvesting souls. I'll take her to thier show when they come around
RIP Oderus Urungus
You are a good dad
so wait, are they harvesting souls to feed to their giant worm, or are they harvesting the souls to power interplanetary conquest?
@@raydgreenwald7788 Yes.
They're on tour this year. 😁
Dear @Mattel, please make the holiday collection for 2024 a series of Gwar dolls.
Too late in the year for production, but enough time for the summer 2025 swimsuit releases.
@@darthandeddeuthe Summer of Gwar begins now. Get your Gwar ready body to the beach and piss off the normies!
Gwarbie
I'd buy those.
Viking Metal Barbie
Weirdly comforting. Will speak to my therapist about this.
When I did EMDR therapy the therapist told me to come up with a happy safe place that I could think of at the end of each session to come back down from talking about trauma and such. I chose the crowd of a GWAR show with Brockie belting out Sick of You.
Gwar is therapeutic
That's just GWAR.
LOL
Please no one else give a thumbs up! Perfect the way it is lol
The algorithm threw this at me and I ain’t even mad. GWAR rules.
My only complaint is that apparently the algorithm is moving two months slower for me. What the heck is this, algorithm! ..but it is kinda strange, yet also impressive, that it seems to know that GWAR is the only thing in the A. V. club that will interest me.
GWARBIE RULES
There it is

😂❤🎉 Gwarbie!!
You win yes yes yes yesss
Add some pyrotechnics, we'd have Gwarbenheimer!
They are GWARnough.
Nice
It should be "They GWAR kenough"
I've loved this gaggle of idiots for more than 30 years now and I see no reason to stop!
I think the band turns 40 years old next year
They started either 84 or 85
Brockie's dead man. They should have just stopped the project then. It shows they care more about the money then the art.
Could have started a new project with a new name keeping the same basic idea even playing GWAR songs but to respect David and everything he did to just keep using his brand seems really fucked to me. I could be totally wrong and maybe this is what David would have wanted but from the outside looking in it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
@@2l2lgaming3 I've seen people online say that Dave wanted the band to outlive him and carry on doing music and other projects.
GWAR has lost great talent over the decades like Danielle Stampe, Chuck Varga, Don Draculich, Dave Musel, Hunter Jackson etc I'm glad these losses don't mean the end for GWAR
Yes it's not the same without Dave but I think that gwar has never been the same, it's always changing styles and members come and go as they please
A recent case is when Brent Purgason left, they got a member from Cancer Christ to take the spot and he's great.
As long as GWAR continues to find great talent, gwar will not die.
(Apologies if I got the spelling of names wrong)
@@2l2lgaming3 I like the idea of Gwar as an immortal concept rather than a specific set of individuals. People live and die but we cannot allow the Gwar concept to die with them. Gwar must live forever.
@@2l2lgaming3there's always one who talks about stuff they have absolutely no understanding of and try to look smart and compassionate but come off ignorant and selfish. So.....there is the whole fact that Dave Brockie threw every penny he made ( that he didn't spend on crack and food) back into the slumdog universe.....with the SOLE intention of funding it to continue AFTER he was gone. He has literally said in multiple interviews that he wanted it to carry on after he died and puts all his money into ensuring that happens. So here you come, saying it's disrespectful to respect someone's dying wishes and keep a band going that he put all his money in time into hoping it would continue. Do you hear yourself? Its funny that you think you know what Dave wanted and what is disrespectful to him more than he did. Screw the fact he's on record saying what's happening now with what was exactly what he wanted....we will just believe you instead of the actual person you're talking about. Also his name was Dave, he never went by David.
My best buddy John Bowler was a huge fan of GWAR. He passed away in 2019 of cancer...he would've love this! This one is for you John!
Hear hear.
I'm sorry for your loss. It is good to see that GWAR continues to rule the universe 🙌
Sorry for your loss
RIP to a fellow bohab!
for John!
Everyone knows GWAR, I didn’t get it when I was young but now it all makes sense. These guys don’t make music for money, they make music because music is awesome.
I remember seeing them on the Jerry Springer show back in the day lol
If you ask GWAR if they make music because music is awesome, GWAR will tell you without missing a beat “fuck you, we make music for money to buy injectable drugs”… 😂
I appreciate that it's lyrically about metal bands that take themselves too seriously.
Paging Sleep Token
Best alien band from Richmond in history.
They’re not from Richmond!
Best band from Scumdoggia
Richmond, Antarctica
That's your opinion!
@@rcptclrecordingsthey are definitely from Richmond, VA.
The heart of Gwar is theatre kids, that's why they are so great.
Gwar and Mac Sabbath need to tour together someday!
I can't believe I'm saying this, but this is a new level of musicality for GWAR.
GWAR always had excellent musicians. So glad they are still around.
Those guitar harmonies and that Grodius touch on the solos~
They have degrees in music 🎶.
Literally genuinely genius.
@@patrickmcbrewhouse so they were super off time on purpose because they're geniuses?
@@avgytenjoyer91time is merely a construct, created by the man to keep you down
I lost my job last week and have been in a suicidal depression ever since, i really loved that job, my crew, my residents, and my people, and losing it was really hard (new owners getting rid of full time positions and the highest paid hourlies) but this snapped me out of it. I want to live in a world where this cover exists
Welcome back! There are good things in the world, and you’ll find more of them. ❤
Thank you for staying 💖that’s a hell of a blow, I’m glad that this is the glimmer that you found to hold on to. Music is medicine, great music + theatrical flair is the best medicine 🥰
Gwar be with you
Sorry to hear that happened. Stay strong, and theres probably an even better job out there for you.
Man k know the feeling I lost mine I loved almost two years ago and still ain't got anything as good but music keeps me going love gwar new and old
AV Club being actually back is the rare light in the hellscape of 2024
It’s been depressing to see a once great website brought so low, hope they keep this up and bring some light back to it
hopefully the comment section isn’t far behind!!
I am glad AV Club is back and has GWAR again making things interesting!
RIP Oderus Urungus. Glad to see the band still shreds after his unfortunate death. \m/
Also Hail Flattus.
Not the same since slymenstra hymen is gone.
@@jdknows8314 I agree. I am sure all of us fans have our favorite era as they morph through time and space but the one thing we can always agree on is they are still the best after all these years. 🖤
Oderus didn't die, he moved on. His mission was complete, but GWAR's mission carries on.
Dave Brockie died Oderus lives forever.
I love that they are a solid band and the theatrics just make everything more fun.
I love how they said they’ll eat your car in a reference to GWAR theme. I hope their first album with Grodius sounds like the middle sections of this song.
WTF AV Undercover in 2024?! Welcome back!!!!!!!
In this world of misery, Gwar has come to provide and save us.
We need a Beavis and Butthead style music video review with Ryan Gossling of this masterpiece.
Perfect idea!
Yesss! Huh-huh! 🤘🏻
"I had my eye on him since the Mickey Mouse Club." No. No. Bad GWAR!
You’ve obviously never listened to their song “Have You Seen Me” or their slew of other songs of that flavor lol
Must be one of them, what are they called? They go good with Barbie q ?
@@bayseeOr Fucking An Animal.
They’re just GWAR . Bringing joy and suffering to millions 🤪
*HELL YEAH!! I Love You Guys!!* 🤘
*I first found out about you guys when I tried Beavis and Butt-Head on SEGA Mega Drive*
You guys knew exactly who did the best through all those older seasons, and I appreciate that. They Might Be Giants next?
This is fucking amazing. My crabs finally went away! On their own too 😊
Ah another amazing AV Club performance from the mighty GWAR! Glad to see them back doing another awesome coverish.
Not gonna lie I thought the av club had broken ties with them after the trump Hillary fight in the last av cover.
@@Tinfoil_is_the_new_black which was that?
Grodius and BälSäc crushing it on the guitars. 🤘
Please let there be a studio version of this soon.
Isn't that a studio they are in?
@@michaelconfoy2862🤷♂️
@@michaelconfoy2862there’s a difference between a studio mixed recording and a live performance recorded in a studio
@@michaelconfoy2862 🤔 ...quiet, you
RIP Brockie, It just isn't the same without you.
Without Brockie Gwar lacks a sophisticated element. There’s no heart here.
@@johngambino but here you are both of you listening still to the new Gwar . Oderus may not be here ,but here is the rest of Gwar and they were never an one man show. Sure Earth is not the same without him and the rest of the gang still knows it ( phantom limb, fuck this place, we are completely fucked)
@@johngambino gwar? sophisticated?
@@Megalabeastexactly. The spirit of Brockie is still there.
So so glad AV Undercover is back!!!
No shade at all, but this show is more important to me than any Tiny Desk or anything, used to binge them daily in college! Let's keep it going!!!
Me too! I'm cautiously optimistic about the new owners of the A.V. Club.
This just made an exceptionally bad day absolutely magical
Now this is art.
no, they're just GWAR
I don't know what everyone is getting so hyped about.
They're just Gwar.
Well played. cheers!
Between GWAR and Pete Davison “I’m Just Ken” is becoming a song for everyone.
The boys are back in town! 🤘💀
The cover song sessions are back!? I am so incredibly happy!
So nice for Gwar to provide a ray of sunshine in this awful world that Gwar wish they could be worse than, but outpaced them long ago.
I long for a world of being fed to a giant space maggot over this
I think you mean, liquid sunshine. But yeah, what you said.
Never was huge into GWAR. But this is just pure gold! Thank you guys
This is quite possibly the worst thing the band has ever done.
@@jesseray4728 oh no not even close. I guess you never heard the album This Toilet Earth.
@@mandolinistry3207 I love that album. 😆
@@mandolinistry3207You are thinking of "We Kill Everything." Toilet Earth was solid.
Holy Shit!!!....A.V. club undercover is back!!
I’ve known of GWAR for a long long time but for some reason this is the first time I’ve heard them perform. I am saddened at the loss I’ve inflicted on myself all this time. I will be remedying this immediately. GWAR rules
GWAR is my favorite Menudo.
I just saw the GWAR TED talk. Absolutely brilliant and educated. Art is unreal.
Every time I think we’ve peaked as a species, GWAR just raises the bar.
Filthy human claims a superior species accomplishment
My husband was a huge Gwar fan. I've been to 12 Gwar concerts and been on stage with them. I miss them both so fn much. He always wanted to go to a Gwar-B-Q. Guess he kind of is one now. 💜
My Lords and Masters never fail, Proud to be a bohab!!!
I’ve literally never heard of these guys before but this was awesome! Those costumes are sick as hell too!!
Thank you for starting this series again! One of my favorite things.
This is just what I needed today
Couldn't agree more
I didn't know i needed that. Thank you
That was... surreal.
Just brilliant! Please please play this at every show this fall tour.
this was so transformative it is hard to even call it a cover.
Another bloody masterpiece.
I'm happy that I heard this before the original, now Ryan is covering Gwar.
I’m smiling the whole time. I love this rendition 🤘🏻
I went to my first Gwar show last month after not having listened to them for about 20 years. Man I didnt realize what I had been missing out on! Easily the most fun I've had at a concert in years. Buddies and I came in white and left in red, it was awesome. 🤘
So beautiful 💖 Hail GWAR! xoxox 🤘
So awesome, they also did Tiny Desk Concert, so basically anything is possible at this point
Just the concept of this is brilliant 👏 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Would love to hear this live and hope it makes the setlist for the next tour.
The video's got everything. GWAR, Barbie, KEN, what's not to love?
I was listening to AV covers more than my playlist of og tracks. Mac Demarco's cover of The Sweater song is my favorite version, but I can never forget how GWAR crushing wayward son.
Welcome back AV Club
Gwar is an absurdly constant force. When you are tired of Gwar and take yourself too seriously, you are tired of life.
If they ever team up with Weird Al, it will be the most obscenely wholesome event.
IKR 😂😂
You mean like this?
ruclips.net/video/7sGF2nyCmr4/видео.html
or like this...?
ruclips.net/video/cg2-ovLeSJE/видео.html
I mean, they did that GWAR cartoon together
GWAR and AL need to do a tour together!!
Ive seen GWAR twice in my life. Absolutely my favorite shows Ive been to & I hope to go again some day. Love this band
Clowns on the outside, musical masters on the inside. Stupendous as always
This is so romantic. I love you GWAR.
Glad to see AV Club and GWAR back together!!
This just makes me want a new gwar album
It’s coming.
@@10FadeToBlack10has there been any mention online of a timeframe? We all know it’s coming with grodius but when is my question.
@@10FadeToBlack10 Get a towel!
This is going to sound weird, but this made me tear up.
My late best friend loved gwar, he used to play it on his radio show in college in the late 1980s and early '90s. He didn't live to see the Barbie movie, but he would have loved that, and he would have loved this.
For people who are long-term followers of the band, it is sentimental. They've been through so much and so many members so this song kind of looking at all they're about and all they've been through is sweet and nostalgic.
I got teary eyed as well. My ex husband had been one of my best friends since we were like 14 and we watched GWAR's "movies", listened to a ton of GWAR, and years later went and saw them a few times (Ragnarök era, we were 20 by then). Even after we spilt, we stayed friends and I was friends with his 2nd wife (we were all friends when we were teens). He passed away 2 months before his 36th birthday and when I turned 36 about 5 months later, it was the first time I'd ever been older than him. It's been 13 years now and whenever I see stuff like this, it makes me think of him and how much he would have loved this.
Holy Gwar! I can't believe I'm finally seeing a new AV Undercover video! Please keep 'em coming!
GWAR HAS KENERGY!!!❤
I love Gwar! They never dissappoint
We NEED GWAR Mattel Dolls!
GWAR is so great. They transcend time and space. I am both too young to have been around since the beginning and too old for having been a fan for so long.
Man i remember them from the early 90s. I had one of they're cds and all i can remember is the song Meat Sandwich.Thats one hell of a commitment to still be dressing like this for that long.
Two things I needed back in my life. 1.) AV Club covers and 2.) Gwar. Thank you so much for being here at the right time. This was fantastic
I need this. I need this SO SO MUCH. Sigh.
You guys desperately need to bring back the cover seasons!
I am SO glad this series is back the old one produced so many amazing moments
Y’all are still so damn amazing! Keep blazing on!!!
Ive seen GWAR 19 times now (once a year since i first saw them in 2005, minus 2020 obviously, but i did see them twice in 2006 so...) i am desperately hoping, with my soul, that they keep touring until at least 2027...my son was born in 2019 and one of the first things i established early with his mom was that i have permission (we're not together) to take him to a concert when he reaches age 8...its sooooo close i can already picture it.. PLEASE keep touring
Seeing GWAR at #s in Houston, TX is a brain tattoo. I am 51 now. I was 18. Congratulations, Mom. I love you.
I've got one word for this performance..... AWESOME!
i literally breathed a sigh of relief when i saw this video show up in my recommends. ive missed you GWAR cover
This is amazing!!! The Barbie loving metalhead in me is so here for this!
So glad AV Club has new videos !! I love these covers !!
I love GWAR, I wish I'd gone to see them the last dozen times they were in town :(
Saw them in Kalamazoo, MI so many decades ago. Wore a white t front row on purpose and was covered in cold fake blood. Ahh yes, the good old days. Keep on rockin dudes.
I've been waiting 7 years for this to come back!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhh!!!!! 🤘
This is incredible.
Omg omg omg new undercover sessions!! Thank youuuuuuu
True artistry.
How this didnt turn into an Aqua cover I'll never know. Glad GWAR is still at it. RIP Dave. You truly left a legacy of fun.
YT algorithm tossed this my way, came curious, left amazed. Glad to see GWAR still jamming
Love GWAR! They did it again 🤟
I grew up hearing about gwar and how 'sick'/neg they were. Mostly cause I grew up in the church. This is my first time actually laying eyes on the band and nothing could have prepared me for this level of camp.
I fucking love it.
Those pink cymbals are 🔥🔥🔥
i don’t think anybody could’ve ever predicted this
Never knew you needed this but so happy to have found it.
