Fuck this toilet earth

It is with a sense of profound loss and tragedy that the members of GWAR must announce the passing of their long time guitarist and beloved friend Cory Smoot, also known to thousands of metal fans worldwide as Flattus Maximus. Cory was found deceased this morning as the band prepared for a border crossing. There is no word as to the cause of death and the members of GWAR are completely shocked and devastated that this has occurred. At this point there is no word on arrangements and the disposition of the remainder of GWAR’s current North American tour, nor are there any details regarding long term plans. At this point we are just dealing with the loss of our dear friend and brother, one of the most talented guitar players in metal today. We ask that our fans and the media be respectful of our request for privacy for those that have suffered this terrible loss. A full statement will be coming in the next day or so, in the meantime please give your thoughts and your prayers to Cory, his family, and all the people that love him.

If you have ever been to any concert and never seen GWAR in concert (Which holds really good shows) then you never experienced GWAR. I'm a real big fan of the band and although not really "Music" per-se, it's still music to my ears.

Albet; Disturbing. And I love it.



Fucking an animal. By GWAR. Really hilarious song.

Well that just sucks. And no idea how he died is just a bit strange... I am sure that when they release the next press statement they will have found out.

Sad to hear. A lot of the metal legends are up their in age and all, sucks...

Would've loved to see these guys live myself. I've also heard their music and it's not mindblowing, but yeah I hear their theatrics and all that are madness.

Not to mention Cliff Burton and Dimebag Darell, among so many others.

Sadly, I've only seen GWAR perform once, and my god, was it spectacular. Based on the date I saw them, Cory was indeed their guitarist then, alongside Balsac.
