A new documentary on GWAR‘s day-to-day life on tour has just been shared. It includes an extensive look behind the scenes at how the intergalactic shock metal band’s shows are put together and more. Decibel put together that watch, sharing it as part of their new issue which sports an oral history of the group in celebration of their 40th anniversary. You can pick up a copy at the above-mentioned link.
As the documentary shows, a small army of stagehands is involved in putting together the sets, including the the various stage props. Also touched on is the painstaking amount of safety that the band go into in protecting venues from the various liquids spewed out from the stage across the audience each night, as well as the equipment used to pull it off.
This past September actually saw GWAR come under fire from MAGA influencers, after footage of the band’s time-honored tradition of gruesomely sacrificing cartoonish depictions of politicians, celebrities and more landed on their radar.
