This song came up on my shuffle today, and i remember all the huge stink i read this song & cover caused. I personally like W.A.S.P when they got political and they where not with the over the top shock image.

But come on.......... This cover & song are so over the top how could they have been that pressed

......huh? 90's child here.

What?

Of course it offended folks. This was in the middle of Reaganomics.

Hell they couldn't get past this cover in '94 because the Black Crowes got shit for a similar cover for amorica.

C'mon now Guns...

I dunno. I think people got really pissed off when Blackie started the nun raping routine in his live shows. I ai't Catholic, but even I'm offfended:

I doubt anyone would've been okay with anyone mentioning rape anyways.

I Know but...

I mean... this is just SO OVER THE TOP, i mean this is as over the top as watching a Hall & Oates or Lionel Richie video. Plus not like they where really gonna play a song called fuck like a beast on radio

Well I don't know how you think people would've been okay with a cover of a razor-decorated pussy.

Nun rape?

Hmm looking at the cover now, I'm not sure this cover would've not been talked about now as being offensive... because it really is...

It would've been, and besides that, it's plain disgusting and would be banned in Wal-Mart.

Shit I don't even think Target, Best Buy or FYE will carry it either...

maybe it's just me. I have seen so many worse covers from metal bands.. i have seen covers with a cross going down jesus throat. Oh & it's not a girl on the front cover it's singer Blackie Lawless... not that it makes it any better or worse.

No store would touch it with a 25.4 foot pole. Some things are just offensive depending on the time period, but others should just never happen period.

Now when they came out with the K.F.D album in 96 and did the whole nun rape thing idk wtf that was about.

Thank GOD they don't do shock rock shows anymore.

A razor-decorated codpiece dick or whatever it's still all sorts of wrong.

I'm not shocked or whatever, it's just wrong. I've seen too much as a child but I know what's wrong and this is one of them.

The cover probably offended the prudish USA but the rest of the world didn't give a fuck.

You know Europe and Asia couldn't give a fuck about an album cover. Never did (almost).

The thing is, did Middle America had a total block before 1980? The 70s with its drugs experimentations and sexual revolution got reflected into their music acts, how did they react to those acts?

You got Iggy Pop who literally pissed on his audience, wouldn't that trump the nun rape act?

Are you serious? If I was going to a rock concert, I take someone pissing on me than a nun rape...

least all Iggy did was cut himself, smear peanut butter and glitter, and moon the audience every now and then.

Yes Iggy was confrontational, but I never heard that story before. It's a chain of dasies compared to this guy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GG_Allin

That was told by Chaka in her book, supposedly she replaced him in some club because he hurt himself. I don't know what are the exact circumstances.
