Band, 1986-1993 US
Rock
World Entertainment War is an American funk rock band, formed in 1986, noted for its memorable costumes, props, and antics, both on and off-stage and for songs containing intricate lyrics of a political and often humorous nature. They have been described as having, "catchy tunes, fierce musical chops, thought-provoking lyrics and a unique tribal funk-rock sound," and their sound has been called, "friendly, mischievous, groove-based rock with a powerful message, played with passion and professionalism." They recorded four records before disbanding in 1993, and then played reunion concerts in 2000 and 2001, and again in 2009. The band describes itself as “a benevolent media virus programmed to prevent the entertainment criminals from stealing your imagination."
