Released June 24, 1997, Generation Swine marked Mötley Crüe’s daring resurgence with Vince Neil back at the helm and Tommy Lee still in the lineup . Produced by Scott Humphrey alongside Nikki Sixx and Tommy Lee, the album dove headfirst into alternative metal, industrial, and grunge textures. It debuted strong at #4 on the Billboard 200, selling over 80,500 copies its first week and going Gold by August .
Singles like “Afraid” (Mainstream Rock #10) and “Beauty” (#37) showcased the band’s experimental side . Though Vince later called it “a tough record” and “terrible,” many fans appreciate its bold, industrial-infused identity . From the hard-hitting title track to quirky deep cuts like “Brandon” and the remix of “Shout at the Devil ’97,” this album stood as a polarizing milestone. It wasn’t just a comeback—it was a reinvention.
