This is a mug featuring the head of Oderus Urungus. David Murray "Dave" Brockie (August 30, 1963 – March 23, 2014), was a Canadian musician, and best known as the lead vocalist of the metal band Gwar, in which he performed as Oderus Urungus. GWAR is an American heavy metal band formed in Richmond, Virginia in 1984, composed of and operated by a frequently rotating line-up of musicians, artists and filmmakers collectively known as Slave Pit Inc. Easily identified by their distinctively grotesque costumes, Gwar's core thematic and visual concept revolves around an elaborate science fiction-themed mythology which portrays the band members as barbaric interplanetary warriors, a narrative which serves as the basis for all of the band's albums, videos, live shows and other media.
