Album Description
Available in:
"The Blood of Gods" is the fourteenth album by thrash metal band Gwar. It was released on October 20, 2017 by Metal Blade Records. It is the band's first album without founding member Dave Brockie, who portrayed Oderus Urungus, due to his death from a heroin overdose on March 23, 2014. The album is also the first to feature Michael Bishop since 1999's We Kill Everything, albeit portraying a new character, lead singer Blothar the Berserker, as opposed to his role as the original Beefcake the Mighty.
User Album Review
The Blood of Gods is an entertaining collection. There are strong songs that are attractively heavy and catchy enough to keep the band’s fanbase and individuals with sick senses of humour, but less than extreme musical tastes, pleased. Blothar’s does an admirable job and should be welcomed by most of the scumdog faithful as soon as he decapitates a likeness of Kim Jong-un and starts spraying the front rows with Trump jizz. At the same time however, this isn’t going to be the album that breaks the band beyond their legion into any more mainstream profile than already exists. Also, and as sacrilegious as it may be to say, this record is indicative that Gwar ending with the death of Brockie is a symbolic notion. That’s no disrespect to the creator of this whole mess, but there’s still life in the routine yet, even if the only time I’ll probably ever hear any of these songs again will be if I experience them in a live setting.
