GG Allin

Kevin Michael GG Allin born Jesus Christ Allin August 29, 1956 June 28, 1993 was an American punk rock singersongwriter, who performed and recorded with many groups during his career. GG Allin was best known for his notorious live performances, which often featured transgressive acts, including coprophagia, selfmutilation, and attacking audience members, for which he was arrested and imprisoned on multiple occasions. AllMusic and G4TVs Thats Tough have called him the most spectacular degenerate in rock amp roll history and the toughest rock star in the world, respectively.

Allin was born Jesus Christ Allin at Weeks Memorial Hospital in Lancaster, New Hampshire, the younger of two sons to Merle Colby Allin, Sr. and Arleta Gunther. He was given this name because his father told his wife that Jesus Christ himself had visited him, and told him that his newborn son would be a great man in the vein of the Messiah.His older brother, Merle, was unable to pronounce Jesus properly and called him Jeje, which became GG. The family lived in a log cabin with no running water or electricity in Groveton, New Hampshire. Merle Sr. was an abusive recluse and religious fanatic, who threatened his family with death, digging graves in their cellar. In an essay titled The First Ten Years, Allin wrote that his father wanted to kill his family in a murdersuicide. He despised pleasure and allowed his family very little contact with others. They lived a primitive existence and were more like prisoners than a family. Allin also states that his mother attempted to escape before she filed for divorce, but Merle Sr. thwarted the attempt by kidnapping Allin. Allin said that he was glad to experience such an upbringing, and that it made him a warrior soul at an early age. ........
