W.A.S.P. stormed onto the Los Angeles metal scene in 1982 with exploding cod pieces, drinking blood and attacking their audiences with raw meat. The release of their self-titled debut in 1984 and second album, The Last Command, a year later cemented W.A.S.P.'s over the top reputation and their place in L.A. legends and lore with savage stage shows and hit songs 'I Wanna Be Somebody', 'L.O.V.E. Machine', 'Blind In Texas', and of course the controversial track 'Animal'. Some 30+ years later, W.A.S.P. is still recording, still touring, and still dangerous.
Vocalist/guitarist Blackie Lawless, the sole remaining member of the original W.A.S.P. line-up, has returned with the band's 15th official studio album, Golgotha. It marks the end of their longest break between records, and is a potent follow-up to Babylon from 2009.
