Gwar frontthing Oderus Urungus was active on his Twitter earlier today (August 06th) sharing his thoughts on artists who he is perceived as “hating” (see here
and here for some context,) on that front he offered:
“I have been getting lots of questions in interviews about why I hate so many people. I don’t understand the question. People in particular seem to think I “hate” Rob Zombie, Dave Mustaine, Kevin Green etc. but I never recall saying I “hated” them. I do recall threatening to rip out entrails and anally violating entire families but never hate, never hate…
I remember being swathed in gut-garlands as planets seethed below me. The plasma beams burned mile-wide paths of death. But not hate, duty.. In particular I do not “hate” Tim Lambesis, and am shocked by the metal communities seemingly universal near-condemnation of him. That might sound ridiculous coming from me, considering the horrible things I said… but those we all know were for laughs…they were funny I can’t help it I laugh at awful things.
But I was surprised at how some seemed to turn on him for real…it would not be the first time a rocker got railroaded… Not the first time the police went apeshit over bullshit evidence…entrapped him…I can see it…in America? Of course. But anybody who takes what I said for an apology of any kind for anything I ever said can go fuck themselves.”
As I Lay Dying‘s Tim Lambesis stands accused of attempting to hire a hitman to murder his estranged wife Meggan Lambesis. He is currently out on bail and limited to house arrest with his next court visit to take place next month. Gwar will release their new studio album “Battle Maximus” on September 17th through Metal Blade.
