Few bands can compete with the arresting aesthetics and all-out rock fury of GWAR. Adopting larger-than-life monikers - Balsac the Jaws of Death and Beefcake the Mighty, to name but a couple - and donning even larger horror-themed stage outfits, the five-piece have been assaulting speakers and screens around the world since 1984.

For today's special episode of Guitar World's Sick Riffs, lead guitarist Pustulus Maximus teaches you how to play "Auroch", taken from the band's 2017 album The Blood of Gods, in full. His electric guitar of choice is a Dean Custom Shop ML "Croc-top" and it's running through three different Marshall amps.
