Glenn Danzig, former frontman of the misfits and purveyors of classic disaffected horror punk, doesn’t think there’ll ever be a new generation of punks. Speaking to Rolling stone, he explained why he thought the punk era will never be repeated:
“I don’t think people will ever see anything like it again,” he said. “There won’t be any new bands coming out like that. Now, they will immediately get cancelled… “People don’t understand, because everything’s so cancel-culture, woke bullshit nowadays, but you could never have the punk explosion… You could never have it. It would never have happened. We’re lucky it happened when it did, because it’ll never happen again. You won’t have any of those kinds of bands ever again. Everyone’s so uptight and P.C., it’s just like, ‘OK, whatever.’”
And his era, specifically his song Last Caress? “[we] would do things just to piss people off,” the song is “fuck everybody. Fuck you, fuck you, fuck you, fuck the world.”
