The AV Club is bringing back their Undercover Series after a seven year hiatus and they've recruited Gwar to kick things off! Gwar is now streaming their own Gwar -ified version of the Barbie movie hit "I'm Just Ken", complete with some questionable banter prior to the performance. It's Gwar !
"I couldn't think of a better way to bring back AV Undercover than with the band responsible for one of my favorite episodes," said Paste Media president Josh Jackson. "Gwar once again knocked it out of the park, completely making a song from the Barbie movie all its own."
"We've been fans of Ryan Gosling since the Mickey Mouse Club days, and like most terrifying intergalactic heavy metal superstars, we simply adore musical theater. This just made sense," said Gwar vocalist BL0thR the Berserker, who apparently keeps changing the spelling of his own name.
Gwar has a buncha tour dates coming up where they may or may not play "I'm Just Gwar". Check 'em out below and get your tickets right here.
