EMMURE’S FRANKIE PALMERI IS A CERTIFIABLE NUTBAG
If you needed another reason to hate Emmure, this is it (as if their knuckle-dragging version of nu-deathcore isn’t enough). Props to MS super-commenter Alex_P for bringing this Lambgoat interview with Emmure’s Frankie Palmeri to our attention (Metal Injection picked it up too); I never would’ve checked it out on my own, let alone read through all of it.
It starts off with pretty typical interview fair talking about the band’s current tour, their next record, blah blah blah. It starts to get good when Palmeri starts talking about his love of Limp Bizit. It gets even better when he starts talking about spirituality. And then it goes to a whole new level when he starts talking about the Nibiru aliens, his thoughts on global warming (he actually believes the earth is about to cool down) and the inherent energy-holding capabilities of gold. The only gold containing any energy is the pure hilarity of this interview, in my opinion.
On Limp Bizkit:
I would like to think that [our fans are similar]. I mean, I don’t know, when I was growing up Limp Bizkit was the best band in the world to me and they’re still one of the bands that completely altered my view on life and music and what I should be as a person. Getting to tour with them would blow my fucking mind I don’t know if it’ll ever happen…
On the Nibiru aliens:
What they figured out was that gold can contain energy, it can protect planet Nibiru. Now what I’ve heard and what I believe to be true is that the Anunnaki have created us to get gold so that they can continue to survive on their home planet. Now I’m guessing it takes a long time for their planet to go in rotation towards Earth, but once it comes back, they’ll be here for the gold. Whether or not they take us with them is hear-say.
Wow, really Frankie?
But I don’t want to ruin it for you. Read the full interview here; I recommend you Control-F to “Limp Bizkit” to get to the good stuff.
