GWAR!.......2006-12-20

Maybe not the best, but this is a solid Gwar album. The riffs, the humor, the meat, it's all here. I'd have to say the stand-outs are the title track, "Dirty, Filthy", and of course the classic opener "Meat Sandwich", which I saw them perform last week. The rest still is great though, right down to the last track. Studio albums are all good and fine, but you'll really never know Gwar until you see them live. And for godsakes, get up in the first few rows. It's a bloody good time.

An Underrated metal classic.......2005-12-24

After the experimental yet still good This Toilet Earth comes GWAR's forgetten,amazing album. My third favorite (My favorite is Scumdogs and my 2nd favorite is America must be Destroyed) this is a metal masterpiece with every track extremely good. Standouts for me are "Whargoul", "Meat Sandwich", "Crush, Kill, Destroy", "Knife in Yer Guts", "Fire in the Loins", "Martrdumb","Nudged" and "None but the Brave" though every track is awesome. Any metalhead should appreciate this classic.

Another good Gwar album.......2005-06-05

This, although definitely not their best, is a very good release.
As with many of Gwar's albums, this one starts out with an AMAZING song, Meat Sandwich, which is one of Gwar's best of all time. That, though, is the only true standout song on the album for me. The other great songs on this album are Whargoul and None But The Brave, but they just do not match up with Meat Sandwich. There are really no songs that I hate, but all of the others are just ok; nothing special. Most of the songs on this album are pretty heavy, and the humor of some songs, such as Dirty Filthy, really makes this a solid Gwar release. There is better out there from Gwar, but this one definitely shouldn't be passed up.

An underappreciated gem in the Gwar catalogue.......2002-03-05

Ragnarok is the forgotten Gwar album: sandwiched between the experimental This Toilet Earth and Gwar's punkish Carnival of Chaos/We Kill Everything, Ragnarok's full-on synth-metal seems out of place. But this is brilliant, classic Gwar, and it's evident from the get-go with Meat Sandwich. Oderus sounds downright pissed on that one! There are tons of great songs on this album: Whargoul, Ragnarok, the insidiously catchy Dirty, Filthy, Stalin's Organs, Martyr Dumb..the list goes on and on. Ragnarok is also the Gwar album with the most non-Oderus songs: Sleazy has a great tune with "Think You Oughta Know This" and songs sung by Cardinal Syn, Sexecutioner, Slymenstra and Beefcake really flesh out the album. This disc brings Gwar lore back to the forefront as well, and the songs focusing on the impending doom of a comet, along with Cardinal Syn's attack, are plain fun. Overall, a return to form and a brilliant and underrated disc. One of Gwar's strongest. Highlights: just about everything.

Quite good.......2002-02-22

This isn't Gwars best album but its a good introduction to the band. The best songs are Meat Sandwhich, The New Plague, Ragnarok, Dirty Philthy, and Wharghoul. There are a few uninspired album fillers on it but its definitly not a bad album. I like how Gwar can be very humorous and still make great music. Its well worth 15 bucks.
