Richmond, VA metal band GWAR’s frontman Oderous Urungus has put up his mask to benefit his the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings. As a New Englander and a former Boston resident I can’t even tell you how amazing I think this is.
You can bid here.
GWAR, for those of you who don’t know, have been tearing it up since 1984 with the vast majority of their albums being released via Metal Blade.

There are some bands more adept at riding the chaos than others in the storied history of underground music. From noise and hardcore pioneers like Steel Pole Bathtub to Man Is The Bastard to synth/indie/post-core bands like Six Finger Satellite to numerous grindcore bands like Fuck The Facts, etc.- some groups just embody the concept of "fuck it/let's really go for it" more than others. NY's Black Mesa sits proudly in that same spirit of frenzy and ferocious inventiveness, as evidenced by their recent compilation of insanely manic live performances. Whatever sub genre they throw in the emotional blender, you are bound to enjoy a deliciously nutritious smoothie of muddy sonic punk purée.
