Hannah Bugga August 16, 2022

Five legendary heavy metal, punk, and rock n’ roll stars teamed up for the first time to answer two simple questions: WTF is wrong with eating animals, and why is eating plants so f***ing great? 

In a series of video collaborations shared across Mercy For Animals’ social media platforms, music industry heavyweights explain the horrors of the animal agriculture industry. Rob Zombie, Alissa White-Gluz, Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein, Bif Naked, and Davey Havok mince no words when it comes to the appalling consequences of factory farming. Together, these powerful videos amassed over 275,000 online views and countless supportive comments.
