Kevin Michael "GG" Allin (born Jesus Christ Allin; August 29, 1956 – June 28, 1993) was an American punk rock singer-songwriter, who performed and recorded with many groups during his career. GG Allin is best remembered for his notorious live performances, which often featured transgressive acts, including coprophagia, self-mutilation, and attacking audience members. AllMusic and G4TV's That's Tough have called him "the most spectacular degenerate in rock & roll history" and the "toughest rock star in the world", respectively.Known more for his notorious stage antics than for his music, he recorded prolifically, not only in the punk rock genre, but also in spoken word, country, and more traditional-style rock. His extremely politically incorrect lyrics, which often covered subjects such as misogyny, pedophilia, blasphemy and racism, polarized listeners and created varied opinions of him within the highly politicized punk community. When questioned about his music and shows, Allin often replied that he was trying to make rock music "dangerous" again.Allin's music was often poorly recorded and produced, given limited distribution, and was met with mostly negative reviews from critics. Despite (or perhaps because of) these factors, Allin maintained a cult following throughout and after his career. Allin promised for several years that he would commit suicide onstage during one of his concerts, but died offstage of an accidental heroin overdose.

Quote
1
Everybody's an enemy. Fuck. I hate everybody. I'm not part of any scene. I do my own thing. My mind is a machine gun, my body is the bullets, the audience is the target.
2
If someone comes right up and asks me if they can tape it and they say they'll give me a copy or something, that's usually cool, but when I see someone sneaking around with a camera, I'll smash the thing, cause I've had 'em used against me, too.

I believe you can make forces of good and evil work for you, to get what you want.

Death is a very important part of life.

Fact
1
As per his wishes he was buried unwashed, unembalmed, and wearing his favorite leather jacket, trademark jock strap, and a bottle of Jim Beam in his hand.
2
His gigs became an event more than a concert; in-between singing songs about serial killing, pedophilia, necrophilia, and drug taking, would self-mutilate, defecate, and urinate on stage while dressed only in a jock strap. Shows would often end in a riot following a fight between members of the audience and Allin.
3
His first professional band was Malpractice, a funk-rock quartet where he played drums with his brother Merle on bass.
4
Was dressed in drag for his 10th Grade school picture.
