MetalSucks

It seems that Gwar’s Oderus Urungus is super-stoked on his MetalSucks column “Ask Oderus”; not only has the dude been keeping up with his duties as Professor of Intergalactic Metal Advice, but he responded to our last call for questions by leaving comment answers to all of your questions; every single one of them!! For the sake of getting his answers out to the masses, we’ve compiled some of the best Q&As from last week’s online therapy session here.

Chase asks: What happened to the blood bombs yall would throw at the show? those were ridiculous. Why haven’t yall killed amahidnnedjad?

If they do their job, they hopefully explode into your eyes, blinding you and giving you numerous incurable diseases.

As far as that crafty, kooky, A-Jad is concerned, I am in no hurry to kill him. I think he is quite amusing. I wish him all the best in his construction of a nuclear warhead and delivery system for said weapon. Hopefully Many people admire him for his defiant attitude, and I am enjoying his stand-up comedy, particularly the jokes he made about the Holocaust. Hilarious! Way funnier than Schindler’s List. Everyone said what a great movie that was but when I saw it I only laughed like two, three times!

Gwar’s Oderus Urungus is back for another round of Ask Oderus. Now’s your chance to ask everyone’s favorite Scumdogian the questions that have been burning holes in your mind; “Why haven’t you slaughtered ICP and all the Juggalos yet?” “Do you like fish sticks?” “Is it fair the singer from Anthrax got fired for shitting on the bass player’s back? Don’t you regularly give Cleveland steamers to Jizmak?” These are all questions that Oderus has answered before for you, the MetalSucks faithful.

So what’ll it be? Ask Oderus by leaving a comment, and check back next week for his majesty’s answers.

In the meantime, check out Gwar’s intergalacticly awesome new video for “Let Us Slay” and Oderus’ appearance on Opie & Anthony.

There’s really nothing I can say about “Let Us Slay,” the new video from Gwar and director David Brodsky, that would be funnier than what Oderus Urungus himself has to say about it. So I’ll just let him speak, via a press release:

“LET US SLAY” is the first video from our new epic album, ‘LUST IN SPACE’, and provides actual first-hand footage of GWAR’s recent travels through outer space and our cosmic struggle against that intergalactic asshole Cardinal Syn…this should put an end to any speculation that we are not really from outer space…you can really see us flying around on spaceships and shit!”

After a huge hit of crack laced with horse tranquilizer and kitty litter, the warty front-thing continued, “This is just the latest GWAR video from esteemed director David Brodsky, whom we have worked w/ before on the amazing ‘SCHOOL’S OUT’ video. He is a very talented and effusively garrulous sort of guy, and he works for rocks! Plus I am particularly excited about the many dance moves that I executed in the course of the video…I recently studied under Christopher Walken, and after working very hard he gave me the nickname “Twinkletoes!”

That part about Brodsky working for rocks is true, by the way. What Oderus neglects to mention is that he uses the rocks to beat people and take their money, so it’s not like he’s going broke or whatever.

Here’s the video. It’s pretty awesome. Enjoy it.

You ask questions, Oderus answers. It’s a pretty simple formula, really. This week Mr. Urungus tackles MS reader questions ranging from crabcore to Anthrax to Hitler, raping whales, Lordi (and their inherent suckitude) and a whole host of other topics. Yeah, Oderus talks a LOT of shit in this one! Your questions answered, after the jump.

If you’ve got any questions for Oderus, drop them in the comments section for Oderus to answer next time around.

Oh, snap. We’re used to Slayer’s Kerry King picking fights in the press. But now Gwar’s Oderus Urungus, perhaps eager to throw down with the legendary guitar player, has brought the mountain to Mohammad by talking some shit of his own.

In an exclusive video interview with Dave “I’m Not Really Just Oderus Without the Mask” Brockie for NoiseCreep, Oderus has this to say about Mr. King:

“He’s fat and ugly and stupid. Y’know, I’ve supported Slayer my whole life, they’re probably the greatest metal band ever. In fact, I personally gave Kerry King, fat little bald Napoleon with swagger that he is, The [Metal Hammer] Golden Gods Award for Most Awesome Metal Artist, and I didn’t even anally violate him, and he still couldn’t find it in himself to acknowledge.”

Ouch. Harsh words. If you know me but at all, you know I can’t wait to hear King’s retort. I’m sure it will have something to do with costumes. Which would be kinda ironic.

Here’s the video of Oderus smacking King with the proverbial glove:

Speaking of Oderus: you can still ask him a question right here. Hopefully he’ll answer a few more in the coming weeks.

I’ve gotten a few e-mails today from people asking me where Vince is. Well, the truth is, Vince can’t write because he’s ill. And he’s quitting the site. No, really, he quit. We didn’t fire him. Swear it. We stand by that statement.

Here’s some other shit that happened in the world of metal this week:

• We’ve heard the new Alice in Chains album, and it is good.
• Gwar’s Oderus Urungus answered some of your questions, and will answer more in the future.
• John Bush is coming back to Anthrax because Dan Nelson quit. Oh, wait, no he didn’t. Yes he did. He probably didn’t, though.
• We spoke with Poison the Well’s Ryan Primack and Sunn O)))’s Greg Anderson.
• We checked out the latest releases from He Is Legend, Magrudergrind, Novembers Doom, and Clutch.
• Unfortunately, the 10th Annual Gathering of the Juggalos really is a real thing.
• Baby-eater Dino Cazares must be stopped!!!

Alright. Time to go buy a vaporizer of my very own. See ya Monday.

Last week we made Gwar’s intergalactic frontman Oderus Urungus available to answer your questions, for which you wasted no time in posting them in the comments. Mr. Urungus picked his favorites and sent them back to us yesterday, and the results are predictably raunchy and entertaining!

Since this went so well, we’re going to turn it into a bi-monthly regular column Ask Oderus. Got any questions? Post them in the comments below, and Oderus himself will choose his favorites and post his answers here in two weeks.

Q: How does it feel to have Greg Gutfeld lodged so far up your ass?

A: Quite nice really, he isn’t that large!

More questions answered after the jump…

Alright, people. I feel like fucking death. I just wanna go lie down and hopefully never wake up. Let’s get this over with:

• We finally finished the goddamn motherfucking list with “Albums We Wish Had Made It” entries from my man Vince (Soilwork’s Natural Born Chaos) and my girl Amy Sciarretto (DEP’s not-really-eligible Calculating Infinity).
• We got another exclusive world tour video tour diary from Misery Index. We also spoke with Johnny Kelly of Type O Negative and Seventh Void and got our bro-bros at Thrash Hits to do a video interview with Trigger the Bloodshed for us. Thanks, dudes.
• We lost IQ points just watching this video interview with the singer of Attack! Attack!
• We have it on good authority that there’s gonna be an Acid Bath reunion.
• Dallas Coyle is now answering your questions.
• So is Gwar’s Oderus Urungus.

We’ll be at Summer Slaughter on Sunday. If any of you spot us and want to buy us a drink, please, for the love of all things holy, don’t.

Legendary interplanetary metal band Gwar are back August 18th with their new record Lust in Space, the first track of which “Let Us Slay” is currently streaming on their MySpace page.

While you eagerly await the new record and next blood and semen-spewing Gwar concert to come through your town (which, according to Moby, is the best show ever), we’ve gotten frontman / Fox News correspondent Oderus Urungus to agree to answer fan questions from you MS Maniacs. So post your questions in the comments section below, and Oderus himself will cherry-pick a bunch of his favorites to answer back here on MetalSucks in a couple of weeks. If you’d like to ask Oderus about where all that semen comes from, to share a favorite space lust story, or anything else you can think of… now’s the time!

We’ll be closing entries next Thursday at 5pm EDT. Have fun.

Also: Andrew W.K.

Stay tuned for a special announcement involving Gwar later this week.
