Maggots: The Record

The Plasmatics split in 1983, but after, two solo albums, Wendy and Rod opted to reunite the band for this record, though minus Richie Stotts, who had his own band he was bust with. "Maggots: The Record" is often called a death-metal opera. The music is very fast and very extreme, and most of the record is dialogue spoken by actors, which tells the tale of a race of giant maggots taking over the earth and destroying humanity. Because Wendy and Rod were conceptual artists, it's impossible to ever really know what the hidden meaning is behind the album.
