Sex Pistols rocker John Lydon has blasted Sting and described his band The
Police as "soggy dead carcasses".

Lydon - better known as Johnny Rotten - is unimpressed by the 'Roxanne'
rockers' recent comeback, and mocked frontman Sting calling him "Stink".

He said: "That really is a reformation isn't it? But honestly that's like
soggy old dead carcasses. You know listening to Stink trying to squeak
through 'Roxanne' one more time that's not fun."



The Police are currently in the middle of a nine-month world tour. They
announced their reunion at the Grammy Awards in February.

Sting, 55, wasn't the only musician to feel the wrathful tongue of the
ageing punk.

Lydon, 51, also criticized troubled stars Pete Doherty and Amy Winehouse,
likening them to his former bandmate Sid Vicious, who died of an accidental
heroin overdose in 1979.

He said: "Banging on about your drug habits is a bit old fart isn't it? You
know you can use drugs for entertainment but you should be quiet about it.

"They obviously don't enjoy what they're doing and that's why you turn to
drugs. That's what happened with Sid. It's a slow suicide and it's a cry for
help because they're in mental pain."

Lydon is set to reunite with original Sex Pistols, guitarist Steve Jones,
bassist Glen Matlock and drummer Paul Cook for a one-off show at London's
Brixton Academy on November 8.

The concert marks the 30th anniversary of their iconic album 'Never Mind the
B*****ks'.

i agree with old Johnny..Sting sounds awfull trying to hit those high notes in Roxanne

Its pretty funny hearing criticism from a guy that hasn’t done anything relevant for 30 years. 

johnny makes for hilarious interviews. he loves to bash everyone and he’s just a bitchy mean old guy. but its kept him in the newsover the years when he hasn’t put out any music in ages. he loves to fuck with interviewers and insult anyone in reach.

i still remember when he cursed our MTV VJ Kennedy in the 90s and called her stupid and shit. she was completely freaked out and offended, but that’s just his schtick. otherwise no one would pay him any attention.

pretty funny he’s bashing the police reunion when he’s got one of his own coming up. ooooh irony!

GEORGE CLOONEY in an accident…check it out at http://www.illbustdatass.com

Not really toonces. He was in a band called Public Image Ltd after the SEx Pistols broke up. They put out a few albums during the 80s and 90’s

Got to love John Lydon. He always says what is on his mind.

I’m well aware of PiL’s 80s albums . . .  thats why I said he hasn’t done anything relevant in 30 years! 

Johnny is still relavant even if he isn’t putting out records. 

Plus he has put out solo stuff after PiL. 

Wow, that looks like an inflatable mole on Johnny’s face.

The mole really ought to have that removed. 

He’s absolutely right about Amy Wino

Yes,we should all appreciate and ‘love’ Johnny because he speaks his mind….
I think both guys stink. Literally. And Sting is bland,too.

Lydon—AKA—Johnny Rotten needs to get some dental
work done and his teeth whitened before he goes on one of his next so called hilarious bashing of other
musicians.

Jealous much???  STING IS GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don’t really know anything about this Johnny guy other than he’s really fug looking, but I like Sting.

Last time i saw johnny rotten he was on Judge Judy! Now THAT was relavant!

^^^^^^^ sorry, I meant sophomore and would ^^^^^^

i guess its about time they stop that nonsense beefing. they are too old for that stuff to think they are both icons

BOYCOTT VH1…They have a show featuring a pervert….PEREZ HILTON….he has posted a picture of Miley cyrus with a penis he has drawn next to her mouth on his web site…BILLY RAY…PLEASE SUE…SUE…SUE. this person is clearly sick at best.

Great post, Gambitgirl !  I totally agree, bashing is just his thing, he’s been doing it his entire life.

That said, Lil’ Gordie Sumner (aka Stink) should go right on making Easy Listening/Adult Contemporary music for that 40+ crowd that seems to adore him so much. BLEECH!

I heart the Pistols.

You guys do realize The Sex Pistols were the Monkees for a new generation?  Bought, packaged, and sold by Malcolm McLaren to fill a marketing niche. 

I love Johnny Rotten, he’s my idol in acting like a rude, arrogant bitch.
