On Thursday (January 2),Andy Biersack took to his account on X (formerly to write: “I’ve been wanting to say this since I was 6 years old, and I think it’s finally time to tell you once and for all that the 1997 album ‘Generation Swine’ by MÖTLEY CRÜE is objectively fucking awesome, and if you don’t like it, you are, regrettably, incorrect.”
He explained further in the comments below original post while asked by a fan why did je waited so long to say this:”It’s like they always say; sometimes it takes 28 years to defend a late 90’s outlier grunge record.”
F*ing awesome’ is a bold statement for a 1997 album that is widely recognized as one of the biggest flops in hard rock and glam metal music. But don’t be fooled—Andy Biersack is no stranger to hair metal. As the frontman of the popular metalcore group Black Veil Brides, which was heavily influenced by Mötley Crüe in the early stages of their career (just look at how BVB used to look), it’s fair to say he’s a big fan of the genre. Just take a look at his list of Top 5 hair metal bands.
Glamour Punks and Peppermint Creeps? Those are not your usual suspects kind of bands right? He named his Top 5 so check out the video from the LippsService podcast down below.
