- Tied for first place

I can't decide which album is my favorite: this one or Violence has Arrived. Both are similar in style but VhA is a bit heavier. This album still has some very heavy songs such as Whargoul, Crush, Kill, Destroy, Stalin's Organs, Martyr Dumb, etc. But it also has some more punkish humorous songs such as The New Plague. Still though, the only song that I really just don't like on this album is Think You Otta Know This. Whargoul may very well be the best GWAR song of all times, and Martyr Dumb and Meat Sandwich should also be considered classics. The booklet is also really good. Read through it and you'll find it's quite an entertaining read. All in all you can't go wrong with this album. If you haven't heard it, Whargoul is worth the price of the CD alone.

- Gwar's best album

Ragnarok is my favorite Gwar album. Although the other 7 albums are great, Ragnarok is my favorite. I especially like the songs Martyrdumb, Nudged, and Stalin's Organs, they express Gwar's views on politics and religion they are very well written and are great songs. Also, Sleazy P. Martini sings his second song which is also great. He has one the coolest voices in the band. So if you don't own this album buy it.

- GWAR!

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.

- Quite good

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.

- GWAR'S BEST ALBUM!

This is RAG NA ROK! The CD contains GWAR's best song "Meat Sandwich." If you want a GWAR album but don't know which one to buy, purchase this one. Also, Sleazy P's "Think you ought to know this" is one of the funniest songs this band has ever done. God What an Awful Racket is one awsome band.
