Andy Biersack Breaks His Silence On A 28-Year-Old Secret About Mötley Crüe

Black Veil Brides’ frontman Andy Biersack recently shared his long-standing opinion on Mötley Crüe’s album ‘Generation Swine’ in a post on X.

“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 f*cking awesome, and if you don’t like it, you are, regrettably, incorrect,” his tweet read.

When asked why he waited so long to share his thoughts, he responded, “It’s like they always say; sometimes it takes 28 years to defend a late 90s outlier grunge record.”

Released in June 1997 by Elektra Records, ‘Generation Swine’ marked Vince Neil’s return to Mötley Crüe after his previous appearance on 1991’s ‘Decade of Decadence.’ It was also Tommy Lee’s final album with the band until ‘Saints of Los Angeles’ in 2008.

Mötley Crüe’s music has been a significant influence on Black Veil Brides since their formation in the early 2000s. Biersack frequently expressed his admiration for the band and their impact on his career in interviews.

During a 2012 European Summer Tour with Mötley Crüe, Biersack called the experience “the greatest thing that’s ever gonna happen” to the group in an interview on the ‘Talk Toomey’ podcast. However, fan reactions to the tour were mixed.

Black Veil Brides more recently concluded the ‘Popular MonsTOUR II: World Domination’ with Falling In Reverse. Meanwhile, Mötley Crüe released a new EP, ‘Cancelled,’ with a tour scheduled from March to May this year.
