Alright, so picture a guitar-wielding man in a shredded, assless, canary-yellow bodysuit performing a porno-funk song called “Gett Off”—yes, two T’s in “Gett,” and you know why—at the 1991 MTV Video Music Awards, spinning around to emphasize the asslessness of his bodysuit right when he gets to the line, “Move your big ass ’round this way, so I can work on that zipper, baby.” Is that more or less subversive than a prog-metal song called “Stinkfist” or an industrial-rock chorus of “I wanna fuck you like an animal”?
