The band GWAR have become known for pulling similar stunts against various public and political figures as part of their act, but when footage of their mock execution of the current US president began to circulate, things took a rather serious turn.
It happened to us not too long ago, he continued, but when asked directly if GWAR were the subject of a Secret Service investigation, he simply stated: Lets just say that GWAR is on some lists.
Speaking of how the current political landscape has changed their infamous act, Bishop added: For years, GWAR would do whatever the fuck we wanted. We would kill politicians from both sides of the aisle. We would kill famous people. We never had any backlash.
However, he noted: But until Donald Trump got in office, thats when people started getting extremely upset about politics and music and politics in art.
