GWAR is a satirical thrash metal and shock rock band formed in 1985. The
band is best known for their elaborate sci-fi/horror film inspired
costumes; raunchy, obscene, politically incorrect lyrics; and graphic
stage performances, which consist of humorous re-enactments of political
and moral taboo themes. The band also used to perform fire dancing up
until the character "Gwar Woman" left the band.Their costumes are
generally made of foam latex, styrofoam, and hardened rubber. It should be
noted that the costumes cover very little, with the rest of their bodies
accentuated with makeup. They further their production in concert by
spraying their audiences with imitation fluids. Most of the fluids are
made of water and powdered food coloring which, for the most part, flakes
off or washes out easily. The thicker fluids are made from a clear seaweed
extract called carrageenan which is also used in ice cream and milkshakes.
