Editorial Reviews

When over-the-top theatrical metallists GWAR first appeared on the scene back in the late †80s, surely, many critics and detractors figured that the group would be a fast-fading fad. But as the years have accumulated, the group's massive cult following has only grown larger, with each successive new album and gore-tour. And the chaps are still at it on their eleventh studio album overall, 2009's Lust in Space (whose album cover appears to be directly modeled after Kiss' Love Gun). As you'd expect from previous GWAR albums, the blueprint remains the same on Lust (which sees the group return to their original record label, Metal Blade). In other words, gloriously stupid metal ditties such as the album-opening title track, "Metal Metal Land," and "The Price of Peace," all of which seem custom-made for the concert stage (with lots of scream-along choruses that will sound even more delightful when blasting live from a blood-soaked stage). With Lust in Space, the GWAR metal machine continues to steamroll along, leaving a path of grizzly gore. Greg Prato, All Music Guide
