Gimmick? Or Genius? That’s the question for this new series on the Influencers of Metal Podcast! Collin and Tom dive headfirst into the chaotic, blood-soaked world of GWAR — the alien overlords of shock metal, fake blood, and theatrical carnage.

From their over-the-top costumes to their four-cocked frontman, the duo debate whether GWAR’s outrageousness is just a gimmick… or straight-up genius. Along the way, they unpack the band’s history, their self-built mythology, and why getting drenched in fake blood might just be one of metal’s purest joys.
