Nothing like starting the week with some new drama.
You may recall when we broke the story that Six Feet Under's Chris Barnes got into an argument and allegedly sucker punched Cattle Decapitation frontman Travis Ryan leading to the latter band dropping off the tour?
Well, in a new interview with Revolver, Keene had some not-so-nice words for Barnes in regards to the incident.
In the recent issue of Revolver Magazine, while refrencing Keene's comment condeming Green Day frontman Billy Joe Armstrong for his outburst last year, Keene was asked if anybody in the heavy metal scene acts similarly:
“All The Time! Chris Barnes recently punched Travis from Cattle Decapitation in the face then tweeted, “If you eat tofu, you’ll get your ass kicked in a fight.” That is completely uncalled for.
The fact that he has been allowed to act like such an idiot for so long is beyond me. The only relevant thing he ever did was Cannibal Corpse and now he covers Cannibal Corpse songs, which is fucking pathetic.
I strongly feel everyone in the metal community should fucking put their money where their mouth is. Like, if you act like an asshole in the regular world, you will lose your job.
I really wish this industry ran like other industries where people are held accountable when they screw up like idiots.”
Barnes has denied that he punched Ryan, but he certainly did send out that tweet.
How do you feel about Keene's assertion that Barnes hasn't done anything worthwhile since Cannibal Corpse? Are you a Six Feet Under fan?
