Nikki Sixx isn’t backing down on his support for Mötley Crüe’s highly underrated record, Generation Swine. Recently, Sixx shared a nostalgic snapshot of his famous leather pants on X with the caption, “Generation Swine Chrome Hearts leather pants found in storage.” This post quickly sparked a conversation when a fan expressed their love for the album.

Seeing the opportunity, Sixx took to X to explain his own rediscovered affection for the record. “I’ve fallen back in love with that album. So many great songs and I feel the lyrics stand on their own as well,” he stated, also urging fans to listen to one of the standout tracks by adding, “Check out Let Us Prey…”

Crüe fans had long been curious about Sixx’s thoughts on the album, especially given the harsh criticism it received. In a previous Q&A on X, he had explained, “It was a hard album to finish, and when we released it, and it didn’t fair well, I think everybody just wrote it off.” Now, Sixx’s recent comments shed new light on Generation Swine, inviting fans to revisit and appreciate its unique qualities.
