A recent tweet from Enterprise Earth’s Travis Worland led Ronnie Radke to criticize Gen Z metal bands on X.
In his post, Worland described Slaughter To Prevail’s mask as ‘the deathcore equivalent of the MAGA hat.’ Replying to that, Radke shared the lyrics to Enterprise Earth’s ‘Deathwind’ and wrote:
“Dude literally in a band with these lyrics, complaining about another metal band from Russia, mentioning Donald Trump. What a f**king corny p**sy.”
Gen Z Rockers Are Hypocrites, He Said
After addressing the 26-year-old singer, who is also a member of The Willow and Aethere, the Falling In Reverse frontman expanded his criticism to include a wider range of new-generation bands:
“Gen Z metal bands singing s**t like ‘I will murder you and eat your brains, I am all that is evil, I am the alpha and omega,’ then get on Twitter and be like ‘I got misgendered today at Starbucks.’ Tf outta here with your soft a**.”
Radke’s Controversial Comments Keep Raising Talks
A long-time controversial figure in the metal scene, Radke has previously made headlines for his comments on the LGBTQ+ community. In August 2023, he faced backlash for a tweet that suggested an increase in young people identifying as LGBTQ+ was a trend. His words read:
“My daughter comes home from school and says, ‘I have 3 trans friends, 2 gay friends…’ She is literally a child; it is a trend to be trans and gay. And y’all wanna act like it’s f**king normal and try to shame people and make them into bad people because it makes them uncomfortable that their kids are being exposed and indoctrinated and confused.”
The singer also pointed out how his TikTok account was banned due to his comments on the community and challenged his followers to cancel him.
