Grindcore band from São Paulo, Brazil.

"ragnarök"
Year:  1995
Label:  MB
Format:  CD, LP
Tracks:  14
Time:  42 min.

Genre:  rock

Style:        Thrash Punk

Do not to confuse GWAR use to record music more Metal oriented, but the true is these three albums are in fact closer to hardcore punk than Metal. Apart this mixture or "crossover" GWAR use also to add another elements, influences or just little touches from funky to reggae to classic rock, to mention some ones. About lyrical themes, GWAR are neither the typical band, so they write songs completly oriented to parody, absurd humor or just for laughs, but also some songs are more hardcore in the sense of social issues, politics, etc. Finally they add to this mix of things their spectacular performace which can to remind some kind of gore with sense of humor or even some experimental  tribal bands as La Fura Dels Baus or similars. Sure they merit to see them in live concert.

"this toilet earth"
Year:  1994
Label:  MB
Format:  CD , LP
Tracks:  16
Time:  44 min.

Genre:  rock

Style:        Thrash Punk

Different than the rest of GWAR discography, these two albums here don't sound heavy metal but a kind of hardcore, punk, thrash metal and hard-rock. "This toilet earth" sound more or less similar to "America must be destroyed" but here we can also hear saxos, flutes and simillar instruments. It seem few ska or soul touches. About lyrical themes and aesthetics the band continues with its original parody. Great album too.

Genre:  rock

Style:        Thrash Punk

GWAR is a satirical thrash punk band formed in 1986 by a group of artists and musicians at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia. The band is perhaps best known for their elaborate sci-fi/horror film inspired costumes, raunchy lyrics, and graphic stage performances, which can consist of scatology, sadomasochism, necrophilia, paedo-necrophilia, beastio-necrophilia, fire dancing, fake pagan rituals, mock executions/mutilations, and other controversial violent and political themes. GWAR was, for a long time, on the leading edge of shock rock, going as far as appearing on Jerry Springer in character and in full costume during the mid-1990s.

LEFTÖVER CRACK

"constructs of the state"
Year:  2015
Country:  US
City:  New York
Label:  Fat Wreck Chords
Format:  CD, LP
Tracks:  13
Time:  36 min.
Genre:  rock

Style:        Ska Punk

musically blending crust, hardcore, punk, ska and some tongue-in-cheek reggae influences, Leftöver Crack are best described in terms of their unapologetically leftist rabble-rousing politics. Leftöver Crack formed in 2000, as their parent band, Choking Victim, was breaking up. The group is based around a core lineup of singer, songwriter, and instigator Stza (Scott Sturgeon), guitarist Ezra Kire, and bassist Alec Baille, with a revolving-door drum stool that has included J.P. Otto, Brandon Possible, and Ara Babajian, who splits his time between Leftöver Crack and his own more traditional ska-punk group, the Slackers.
