Canadian prog metal heroes, Voïvod, released a new album earlier this year, Syncro Anarchy. The latest video for the track "Quest for Nothing" may look reminiscent of the band's distinctive art, done by drummer Away (aka Michel Langevin), but it isn't. — Read the rest

GWAR "Fuck this Place" from "The Blood of Gods" album. The story of GWAR is carved across the history of this barren and hopeless planet, but GWAR themselves are not of this world… their story begins in the deepest reaches of outer space. Long ago, the beings who would become the rock band GWAR were part of an elite fighting force, the Scumdogs of the Universe. For eons, they served as thralls to a supreme being known only as the Master. But one by one, each future member of the band earned a glaring reputation for being an intergalactic fuck-up. And so, they were banished, sent away on a fool's errand to conquer an insignificant shitball floating in a dark corner of the universe; the planet Earth. Once here, GWAR shaped the face of the globe, destroying and rebuilding the natural world, and giving rise to all of human history. Aliens to some, gods and demons to others, our erstwhile Scumdogs fucked apes to create the human race, and this fateful unplanned pregnancy would prove to be truly disastrous!
Their new album, The Blood of Gods, is nothing less than a sacred text chronicling the rise of humanity against their makers, and the massive battle between GWAR and the forces of all that is uptight and wrong with the world. Along the way, the band challenges the sins of their great mistake, from politics, pollution, and organized religion, to fast food, and factory farming. Humans are shown as what they are; a parasitical disease that must be eradicated before they suck the planet dry.
Of course, The Blood of Gods is the first GWAR album without the band's fallen leader, Oderus Urungus. The title of the album refers to the loss of Oderus and the struggles and triumphs that produced the new sound of the band. Born of adversity, The Blood of Gods is a sonic scar… a question asked and answered… Death cannot kill GWAR. Nothing can. GWAR LIVES MOTHERFUCKERS!

LYRICS:
Out of time
We were banished here
For our crime
Incarcerated on this
Ball of slime
Primeval wasteland
[Beefcake: “I killed a dinosaur!”]
We fucked apes
Giving birth to the
Human race
your existence was a
Big mistake
Our bastard offspring
So we said...
Fuck this place
Now you rise
We cut you, beat you, crush you
Still you rise
Our children grow into what
We despise
I fucking hate you
[JiZMak:“you think you’re better than me?”]
Oderus
You left us stranded on this
World of pus
And in death you have forsaken us
This planet fucking sucks!
So we say...
(Fuck this place)
I’ll bring you pleasure
I’ll bring you pain
I’ll bring you truth like a bullet to your brain
(fuck this place)
And there she lies
Her corpse you kissed
Your bitch is dead, still you scream “RESIST”!
(fuck this place)
Oh, Liberty.
What did they do?
They ripped your dress and
what a mess
They took a shit on you
(fuck this place)
We watched you rise
You made us fall
Stupid humans brought an end to it all
Now we're back
With fury in our hearts we
Attack back
We're coming at you like a
Maniac
We're not done yet, man
[MC Chris:”#blotharruinedgwar”]
Final call
Our rage cannot be dulled by
Alcohol
And as for you, I care
Bugger all
I hope you all rot!
Still we say...
FUCK THIS PLACE!!
