During their March 3 show at the Marquis Theater in Denver, CO, former Sepultura members Max and Iggor Cavalera were joined onstage by Jello Biafra for a performance of Dead Kennedys’ “Nazi Punks Fuck Off.” The live rendition of the track featured altered lyrics aimed at Donald Trump and some fan-filmed footage of it can be found below:
Biafra commented:
“We’ve been family for a long fucking time man. I first saw [Sepultura] in Denver with Ministry and Helmet. That show, in what should have still been called Mammoth Gardens. Now Live Nation has its claws into this place too. I haven’t been here since they got this place; the Elon Musk of concerts company. A lot of you know this song.
It was originally just written about people being really fucking violent in the pit and acting like a bunch of Nazis. Then, when it got to places that had real dictators and real fascists, like Brazil, and Eastern Europe, it became more, it became kind of a revolutionary cry. So no mothballing the song, especially because, for the first time ever, we are staring at real, live fascist dictatorships with red, white and blue brown shirts all over this country.
It’s gonna take ’em awhile to get to me, but I’m enough on the shit list for what I’ve said about dirty Donnie Trump… and whatnot, you never know. So now, this song has a slightly different name I think we can all relate to. Nazi Trumps, Fuck Off!”
