And it does look like a promotion of self harm with the lyrics included. But he does all of that, and everyone like. Awww poor MGK. He's being picked on. Give me a break. I'm no MGK hater. I've liked a few if his songs. But it's his actions. He's an idiot who gets off on attention all the time, then when he's not getting all perfect things said about him. He goes on the war path. Everyone gets negative comments. In that business everyone. But they don't all make a big stink about it. So then it looks like he's being bullied. He gets plenty of positive responses. So why doesn't he just ignore the crap. Having a baby fit and slagging off Cory Taylor because he didn't want to do a Collab with him. Calling them old men in masks, that's why people don't like him. There was no need for him to say that because he didn't get the answer he wanted. That's pathetic. But it's poor MGK now. Please.

I used to self-a when I wasnt doing so well as a young adult and tbh, I didnt think about that by myself, I heard about it on the internet and went "heh, why not". That being said, an expensive ugly guitar would not have made me do it tho. I still don't know what to think about self-a, to me it was just a symptom, just eliminating it without fixing what made you want to do it in the first place is pointless, if anything, it gives a visible problem to an invisible one, makes it easier to ask for help, I know it did for me. But if anybody is thinking about doing that, maybe skip that "step" and go straight to asking for help.

I think a LOT of people who are constantly on social media have reached the point where they can process what is immediately in front of them. MGK is famous and active on twitter, so they see him often, and therefor are upset because other people have told them to be, or to be triggered by certain things. Twitter also seems to have a culture of looking for things to be bad, almost as though a good faith approach to anything is morally wrong.

So MGK hasn't done or said anything stupid at all to deserve this. He runs his mouth at people Ike Eminem and Cory Taylor, speaks to teen girl's inappropriately. And he's being bullied. For real? He asked if slipknot would do a Collab with him. They said no. So he makes post's about them being old has been in masks they are and then cries about it when Cory claps bk. Then his explanation for the meaning of this song. There's no way it's on about him having a shave. He should have just owned it. Plenty of other bands get abuse. That's what life is now if you're famous. You either get on with it or cry about it. He's got enough of a following to just focus on that. But he's always in the media for stupid stuff. People can't have an opinion unless it's a glowing 1 or MGK and Stan's are throwing a hissy fit. Come on now if he can run his motor mouth like he does. He can take the clap bk. But don't make up BS about it.😂

Totally agree with the guitar situation, it's dumb and it's spiraled into a mess. I can't say Ronnie is being reasonable when he challenged Devin from Bogg to a fight, flexes his position in the industry, then ducks out, and threatens to doxx Devin. Would've been all fun if all that happened was memein on eachother but it's kinda gotten out of control

Exactly. Same with MGK calling Eminem and Cory Taylor out. Then Plays the badly done to card.

He's a big mouth and so is Ronnie, then they're like. I'm bullied in this industry, instead of owning what they've done and said. It's a joke. Asif those lyrics mean him having a shave. OMG . He's created this himself.

"A razor blade is just an edgy thing" - Unintentionally, literally correct.

From a marketing perspective, MGK really knows how to draw attention. If he had just made a "solid/standard looking" guitar, nobody would've had anything to say about it, but by making such an absurd design (I mean aesthetically, not conceptually), he's getting a lot of free advertisement for it.

I didn’t engage with any further Twitter drama after my tweet because like you said “turning something into a big deal that’s actually not a big deal at all.” The internet is not a real place but I saw an ugly ass guitar from Schecter which I interpreted as a guitar for the emo kids glorying the ideas of self-harm. So I called out Schecter. It’s how I truthfully saw it, a quick cash cow idea on romanticizing the emo cliches. Then I walked my dog, did some stuff and some saw MGK replied to me!? So I didn’t expect any of this and since I’m a talking point to a lot of this I wish you used my recent response video from KZread. I address a lot of the things you said and it would be nice to use to cover this weird blown out of proportion story. But I assume this was filmed prior to my recent response video being published. But maybe this whole conversation brought up something important which is just MAYBE Finn, not just MGK but the whole emo scene has been glorifying self-harm for a long time now? With lyrics, imagery and more… and sure it’s cathartic to listen to for many… but maybe we’re also romanticizing it too? I personally see so many people who suffer in the scene from low mental health and I wish there were more positive influences. I feel empathetic for people and I would like to see more positivity in the scene, and sometimes to see positives you have to call out negatives, so that’s why I tweeted at Schecter in my original tweet. But like you said to me, we’re nobodies to MGK so why does it even matter to him? It’s still going to sell (probably even more now) but this whole guitar brought up a conversation about mental health in the scene (which I think needs to be addressed). So like I said in my response video but MGK wanted people to talk about his guitar and he won. We’re all talking about it.

Take the laser aim at my head and paint the walls red I said" Funny this songs been out for years and nobody be bitching about those lyrics but when it's an instrument - comically large and not sharp at all - everyone's panties are suddenly filled with sand. Time to develop some resilience people. (btw that song is awesome and I ❤ MGK so yes I'm biased) If this comment annoys you just know I won't read even 1 reply to it so fire away if it makes you feel better because it won't ruin my day. Cheers

I like MGK, not his music per se, but the fact he’s keeping rock music relevant in the mainstream. I grew up playing guitar listening to rage, white zombie, satriani etc…. The radio was riddled with guitars in all shapes and sizes and it was great. Now a days everything is 808’s and music made with software. Be grateful someone’s trying to keep the top 40 with some instruments going still, regardless of how you feel about the music itself. This keeps the door open for someone who you may like to break through.

That guitar is so tame. What a weird thing to be raging about. People have got to stop giving MGK free attention. It's what he wants.

I have severe PTSD related to a suicide I witnessed, and I have been hospitalized for suicidal ideation, but this guitar does not trigger me in the slightest--in fact, it makes me think of the punk aesthetic. Some people need to stop looking for someone to hate and/or work on themselves--it's not becoming of anyone to complain about, and shit, on someone else. You know what's becoming? Squeezing some boobies.

lol u got to be trolling

Dimebag/Pantera used razorblades in a lot of imagery and even sold a christmas decoration that was literally a razorblade, nobody says a peep about that. What about all the bullet belts that bands wear, doesn't that glorify gun violence by the same logic? Metalheads still get their panties in a twist over Tipper Gore crusading against metal in the 80s because it apparently promotes suicide, self-harm, violence, etc. but are now turning around and doing the exact same thing to MGK. I'm not an MGK fan either but you can't have your cake and eat it too. It boils down to this: If it's something I like with dark imagery it's artistic expression. If it's something I don't like with dark imagery it's glorifying violence, self-harm, addiction, etc.

Another amazing video and great perspective Finn.

Waiting on the Sanguisugabogg vs Ronnie video 😂

2:12 - Sid Vicious always wore the lock annd chain. I thought at first that maybe Johnny Rotten wore the razorblade, but it was actually Dimebag.

to say “this is the state of the scene” about rock and metal bc of some dorks on twitter. is a bit of an overstatement , i have literally not once heard his name come up at a metal or punk gig once

Finn, I really enjoy your well thought out and experienced opinions but I think you’re missing the mark here. Personally I don’t see it as the image causes people to want to self harm but rather that self harm is a very prevalent issue in most alt rock scenes and he is making money off this. Depression and superslide aren’t issues that only face these groups however it has been a large theme in alt rock and rap (emo punk etc) forever. It is the profiting off of this issue and problem that is the real issue. I don’t think anyone is seeing this and going to cause self harm but the fact that he’s making money off a theme that is related to the deaths of millions of teens and adults. Also his fanbase is majority girls and teen girls at that, he is talking to children most definitely, while this may not be aimed that them, it’s a part of his brand and that’s super lame. He speaks to millions and millions that’s why no one gives a fuck about cannibal corpse, they aren’t massive and have little girl or kid fans. We’re not dog piling on MGK, this could have been anyone, it’s just morally in bad taste. Gotta call a spade a spade.

you're way off. the razor actually has a meaning for him and it relates to one of the songs of his album. all his fans know the meaning of the razor and he has explained it before and no, it has nothing to do with self-harm. i do think the conversation around self-harm and mental health in the community is important but in this case for the most part ppl just want to be mad at MGK and use the "he's glorifying self-harm" narrative as an excuse to hate on him some more. people are free to to interpret the guitar how they wish but it's one thing to have a personal interpretation and it's another to claim your personal interpretation is what MGK was trying to convey. also no his fanbase is not majority little kids, he has some younger fans but majority is grown. he has a lot of very explicit lyrics in his songs especially his rap stuff so if little kids are listening to his music maybe it's more of a parental issue.

This guitar is also a tribute to the FIRST SONG of his FIRST ROCK ALBUM. The song is called “title track”. And he explains that in the verse “I use a razor blade to take off the edge” he’s literally saying that the moments he’s shaving his beard is one of the few times in the day he feels calm. - Not everybody should know this, but you must know the situation before you criticize it.

You are so gullible if you actually believe he's talking about shaving.

That thing had got to have some unreasonable neck dive. I can’t even imagine how you would play a live set on it. You’d spend the whole time supporting the neck. It’s basically just an unbalanced rectangle…..

From a design standpoint it just seems like an edgier take on Bo Diddley’s rectangular guitar design. It could be also Schecter wanting to see how far they can go with minimal CNC to the piece of wood itself as long as it has a finish and electronics.

I’m a fan of MGK because he always is doing something. Like it or not, he forges ahead with his businesses, dresses in different outfits, Models clothes for Dolce and Gabbana, music, rap, videos, collaborations, appearances on shows like 50 years of hip hop, a recent commercial for the NFL just yesterday as of 1/14/24, sold out shows, (yes he sells out), designs jewelry, owns a nail business. Ironic that people says he’s a jerk. Sometimes Metal fans can be jerks. Many of MGK videos have over 200 million views. He just did a commercial for FOX NFL just yesterday. Yep, he is doing terrible 😂

I agree with every word you said Fin! You nailed it spot on. It’s just a guitar. And Ronnie is the voice of reason 😂😂 Did you see the beef that started between Ronnie and Devin Swank from Sanguisugabogg? They are supposed to actually fight in person and Twitter / Facebook / Reddit his having a field day because Devin Swank is a a meathead that looks like he eats Dianabol like M&Ms before he works out and they think he’s going to beat up Ronnie. I doubt this altercation will actually happen but it cracks me up because people think Ronnie is a small guy. He’s like 6’1 and has an athletic build and did 2 years in prison. Ronnie is a big violent man that knows how to fight and Devin Swank looks like he curls in the squat rack. It would be the cherry on top if they have a legitimate MMA fight with a ref and Ronnie beat him. The internet would explode

It’s noteworthy that the Finnish band HIM also employs razor blade iconography, particularly in their album ‘Razorblade Romance.’ This symbol is a recurring element throughout their discography but is especially prominent in this album. Broadly speaking, the use of razor blades in rock subgenres like punk, emo, and gothic rock often symbolizes themes ranging from emotional struggle and defiance to introspection and the darker aspects of human experience. Different genres and artists adopt this potent symbol in varied contexts, each infusing it with their unique interpretation while being mindful of its sensitive implications, especially in relation to themes of pain or self-harm. Speaking of which, I have my doubts about Machine Gun Kelly, or MGK, contemplating this iconography with the same depth. Not to sound judgmental, but conveying deep, meaningful themes traditionally requires authenticity and a less commercial approach. While there’s nothing wrong with making money, the essence of being alternative or punk has always been about bringing your most genuine self to your art. It feels like there could be a more authentic, less cringe-worthy way to engage with these themes, especially in a genre that values realness and raw expression.

Good Hangs is such a great recommendation! Thanks!

I think he triggers everyone because he’s a goddamn cringe lord and the only time we ever hear about him, the shit is “cringe.” I think many of us collectively wish he’d just kind of go away already lol. Who knows, that’s probably just how I feel 🙂

The part about the sight of a razor blade causing self harm and comparing it to alcoholism is dead on. It would be like someone being upset and claiming that Michael Anthony from Van Halen caused them to become an alcoholic from seeing him play a bass that looked like a Jack Daniels bottle. Ridiculous.

MGK looks like a dude who sells gaudy switchblade knifes with dragons on the handle at a stand at the county fair. His new signature guitar fits that trailer trash aesthetic perfectly.

About your hamburgers in movies. While it isn't hamburgers, there is a reason you don't see much product placement for sodas in movies anymore. If you go back to the 90s, people were drinking sodas all the time in movies. The reason why was because the producers would make a deal with the soda companies to provided sodas for the crew in exchange for the product placement. It was a win win. The soda company got placement in a movie and the production didn't have to pay for drinks for their crew. Keep in mind that there could be hundreds of people working on a movie for months on end, each of whom may be consuming a couple of cans of soda a day. Since the perception of soda and sugar have changed in our culture, the soda companies now demand to know exactly how the drink will show up in the movie. They won't let their product be used in any scene with anyone who could be perceived as having a weight problem, etc.

The problem with mgk as a whole is that his entire pop punk/emo era has been leaning into tropes and magnifying stereotypes so while yes, darker themes and lyrics can be cathartic, a lot of people don't trust him to fully get that and see this as just exploitation.

The real crime here is selling a guitar with a bolt on neck for 1,500 bucks.

Funniest thing to me is, MGK early last decade was getting pop’n in hip-hop, folks in the hip-hop scene turned on him. Transitions into pop-punk/rock, praised in the beginning, now turned on by the scene. I guess we need MGK to go RNB now to repeat the cycle 😂

I have struggled with self harm in the past, and I don't think this glorifies that in any way. I also think it's a cool look for a guitar. I can totally see this being used by some hardcore punk bands or metal bands.
