Ex-Marilyn Manson keyboardist Madonna Wayne Gacy (aka Pogo) has written the following on Facebook about his claims that Nirvana ripped off “Smells Like Teen Spirit” from Killing Joke.
I mean it’s common knowledge, people have been talking about it for a long time, and there were actually lawsuits that were settled.
The funniest part is: these people who are defending him when he actually had to pay Killing Joke. Additionally, even Dave Grohl admits the blatant rip-off of Godzilla.
He was then asked if he ever has met Dave Grohl.
Yes
However, I really only hung out with the drummer, Twiggy and I wrecked that guy in New Orleans.
We learned from Pantera, The Rock and Roll ritual of wrecking any other musicians that come into your town. Party them into the ground.
Ex-Marilyn Manson keyboardist Madonna Wayne Gacy (aka Pogo) recently called out late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain on Facebook. He posted a link to the Blue Oyster Cult song “Godzilla” and wrote: ‘Burn in Hell Kurt.’ He then posted a link to Killing Joke’s song “Eighties” and wrote: “And this is why you kill yourself, because you’re a f****** thief.”
These remarks were picked up by Alternative Nation, and later other sites like Consequence of Sound. Gacy linked to Consequence of Sound’s article, which criticized him. Below are some of Gacy’s new comments, where he claims the real reason Kurt Cobain died by suicide was because of his punk rock integrity:
And here is an important point: I was pointing out Kurt Cobain’s punk rock Integrity as the reason he committed suicide, because he knew he was being derivative and profiting off of others.
I know that had to eat away at him.
It is Tuesday after all, have a double shot of hate with me and we can all burn in hell together with Kurt Cobain’$ plagiaristic ass
If you can’t be famous, be infamous. Plus it’s really punk rock fun to be hated by everyone.
All these people are doing is constantly increasing my punk-rock street credibility.?
I’m just glad I can still push the buttons on the little kiddies even at the age of 53.
And I’m not even f****** trying…
S*** flows from my mouth like milk and honey in the land of Canaan.
Seriously… I’m laughing my ass off over here. So Much Ado About Nothing.
I wish half of these people gave a quarter as much of a s*** about the child molester Roy Moore as they do about this. But the little children will focus on what is important to them, like long dead heroes.
You’d think I was talking s*** about Jesus?
Although they would probably love that, because they see all organized religion as a farce, and anybody with faith as an a******.
