Cannibal Corpse turned some heads when they announced they would be performing at this years ‘Gathering Of The Juggalos‘ festival. ‘Gathering Of The Juggalos‘ festival. Frontman George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher has now responded to the controversy in an interview with laweekly.com:
“We needed an off-day show, and they offered the show to us, so it made sense. I’m not one of these guys that apologizes for what we make, or what not. I got bills to pay. I got two kids to feed. I don’t wanna fucking hear anybody bitching about that. They can fuck right off if they don’t understand, and they can kiss my fucking ass. I don’t give a fuck about that.
What I do know is they’re just mad at the concert. It’s a different kind of festival, and we’re a death metal band. And if we’re not a true death metal band because of that, kiss my ass again! Because you know what? I know what I am. I know who I am, and I know what the rest of the guys in this band are. We’re a fucking death metal band. We’ve always been. And just playing one show does not make or break us. And if people don’t like it, don’t come to the show, and if you’re upset at us, and you’re a fan of the band, well, I guess in some way I’m sorry, and in the other way, I’m not sorry.
We do what we want. It’s just ridiculous. I’m starting to get fucking agitated, when I’m thinking about the people that are hating on it. Then there’s other people who are just like, “Dude. Hey man, it’s a show. Who cares?””
Cannibal Corpse will be on this years ‘Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival” which kicks off this weekend. They will also return with a new album on September 16th titled “A Skeletal Domain“.
