How to explain GWAR. GWAR is a satirical metal band that formed while this editor was still in high school. GWAR performs in elaborate costumes, claiming to be extraterrestrial warriors banished to Earth. Their live shows are something.

Sadly, GWAR couldn't manage to be as disturbing in its pitch for public broadcasting as <a href="https://twitchy.com/samj/2025/07/15/robert-reich-elmo-n2415699" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Robert Reich and his Elmo doll</a>, but Blothar gave it his best shot. "Rise up in the name of Big Bird!"

Sorry, but shilling for PBS and NPR is decidedly not metal.

We be GWAR listens to NPR on the tour bus all the time.

The guys in GWAR are so old now that the only memory they have of PBS is "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood."

Fred Rogers was more metal than you guys.
