MOBY CALLS GWAR “THE BEST LIVE BAND EVER”

Annoying as he is, I’d love to talk metal with Moby someday. For one thing, he was ever-so-briefly the producer of Chinese Democracy, and I have a feeling he has some great Axl Rose stories.

For another thing, he was the guest editor for magnetmagazine.com last week, and he had some interesting things to say about Gwar:

Have you ever seen Gwar live? No? Rectify this immediately. The best live band ever. Really.

Maybe Moby is just being an ironic hipster douche chill, but I’d like to believe he takes sincere pleasure in Gwar’s live show. ‘Cause Gwar’s live show is pretty fucking entertaining.

Here’s a video of Gwar live that Moby apparently chose to illustrate his point. As our friend (no not that) Matt Pike pointed out, chances are the band will now incorporate Moby’s “murder” into future sets.

We’re gonna have a big Gwar-related announcement real soon. Keep checking back for details.

      yeah man. that’s totally obama. that’s why they said “good ol’ george w.” right before they shoved a flaming sword up his ass.

  • You Don’t Know Me

    Moby used to be in a hardcore punk band called Vatican Commandos and then apparently he was in a Joy Division-inspired band called AWOL. Moby’s got more balls then people think.

  • TheSalamanizer

    Gwar really does have the best live stage show, with Rammstein a close second IMO. Don’t think he meant best performance, cause that can be argued forever.

  • David

    put Moby in the meat grinder…

  • lolwut

    would shit bricks if rammstein played the masqurade in atlanta instead of a fucking footballstadium sized place

    • Seth

      I love going to the masquerade, but i always feel like when they have a good sized show in heaven, it’s going to collapse

  • RaZZo
