scumdogs of the universe

Scumdogs of the Universe is the second album released by rock/heavy metal/punk band Gwar. It is their first album on Metal Blade Records and was released in 1990. As the title implies, it is a concept album about the Scumdogs' reign of terror on planet Earth. The production is very refined compared to the independent first attempt. Gwar began to experiment with samples to some degree (e.g. in the song, "Maggots"). The songs are more socially relevant in this album as well. Examples include "Slaughterama" (which involves Gwar killing hippies and skinheads) and the opening track, "Salaminizer", which was inspired by/based off a song by the breakthrough rap group NWA. Other references include history ("Vlad the Impaler") and mythology ("Horrors of Yig"). The rest of the album is centered around twisted jokes about insane medical practices/sexual perversion. This album is viewed by many as their ultimate masterpiece.
