ANTAGONIST ANTAGONIZE SASHA GREY

 Friday, July 16th, 2010 at 11:30am by

What could Antagonist possibly have against Sasha Grey? The (freaking gorgeous) porn star seems to be a legitimately intelligent fan of metal, and it’s hard to begrudge her her mainstream success (She starred in Steven Soderbergh’s The Girlfriend Experience, and will apparently be on Entourage this season.). So if I was gonna make fun of a porn star, I’d probably choose an out and out freak, like Jenna Jameson, or maybe Tera Wray, because she married Wayne Static and is therefore a moron.

But why poor Sasha? Did she used to date a member of Antagonist? I can’t figure out why else the band would possibly write a song named after her and featuring lyrics such as, “You sold your soul, congratulations, you’ve made it.” How do they know what’s in Sasha’s soul? Maybe it’s lots and lots of anal. Ever think of that, fellas?

While I ponder this issue some more, you can check out the song here. It comes off of Antagonist’s new album, World in Decline, which comes out August 17 on Prosthetic.

    Anyone who sells thier body is a whore.

    • Stolas Trephinator

      Yeah, but if you stand in judgment over someone you don’t know because you believe you’re on some higher moral plane, you’re a dickhead. Dickhead.

      • http://www.facebook.com/people/Ivan-Petric/1146871992 Ivan Petric

        Seconded!

      • Cryzthormagnusian

        I didn’t judge, I just stated that she is a whore by the definition of that word.

        But thank you for judging me.

        • http://www.facebook.com/people/Lauren-Jackon/838634 Lauren Jackçon

          Actually, by definition she’s a porn actress. Not a whore. A whore is a derogatory term for someone who accepts money for sex.

          • Cryzthormagnusian

            Webster definition:

            1 : a woman who engages in sexual acts for money : prostitute; also : a promiscuous or immoral woman

            2 : a male who engages in sexual acts for money

            3 : a venal or unscrupulous person

            It is also not a derogatory term.

            What part of engaging in sexual acts for money in relation to the porn industry do you not understand?

        • earthsherm

          it’s true, he didin’t judge. you did. he just stated a fact.

          • zulcon

            there are no facts, only differing viewpoints.

  • Anthony

    I’d bang her. Although the porn she does isn’t always my cup of tea.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Daniel-Winnett/504952291 Daniel Winnett

    I don’t know why they’d be pissed at her. I’d hit that so hard that if you pulled me out you’d be named the next king of England. She’s hot as fuck.

      I laughed really hard.

      • treghet

        Yeah… uh, you guys haven’t heard that one before? Wow.

  • http://bloodandthumbsticks.blogspot.com/ The Overmatt

    Seriously. She’s hot, has some actual acting talent, and seems pretty intelligent to boot. There’s gotta be some easier porn star fodder for something like this.

  • http://www.omimetal.wordpress.com The Greys

    I have no idea what the band’s motive was in writing this, but musically, the song is pretty bland and generic: Recycled Iron Maiden riffs, with a deathcore screamer bellowing over the mix. Nothing you’d call new or inspiring.

    Thanks anyway.

  • derp

    The guy dated a porn star, and is now mad at her for being a porn star?

    Logic.

  • cougar party

    Sasha Grey actually annoys the hell out of me. Try listening to her talk when she’s not in a porno. She’s like an even more pretentious version of Otep.

    That being said; she can suck a mean dick.

    • Vinsanity

      lmfao oh man comments dont typically tickle me like that one, nicely done.

  • Franco

    I’m pretty sure any guy that criticizes porn stars is a hypocrite. Cause i’m pretty damn sure any one of us would immediately drop whatever we are doing to make tons of money plowing hot girls.

    • DemonicLemming

      Ever look at the forced drop-out rate (from porn) of porn stars due to STDs, even given the “required protection” bullshit?

      No thanks, I really don’t want herpeAIDsyphiluswarts enough to fuck a mediocre-looking porn star, or have to go down on a chick who just finished a gangbang the day before.

      • Franco

        Point made. Unfortunate i guess, but true.

  • fearo

    I will not judge her based on her talent, but if you guys think that this chick is ‘gorgeous’ then you are on crack.

    • Glorious Johnson

      you should totally judge her based on her talents. Have you ever seen this bitch take a dick!?

      • derp

        I never understood this whole “talent” arguement in porn. Women are born knowing how to take a dick.

        • Joseph Schafer

          FALSE! you need to get out and go in more, my friend.

          • derp

            I’m “in” often, but thanks for the conern. And they all react like every other woman does when they take a dick. I guess they’re all talented and should be in the porn industry.

    Sounds like they’re getting their Clark Griswald on at the 3:20 mark when the singer screams “Welcome to Wally World!”

  • soy el niño más bonito

    why are people here (at least so far) so much more supportive of sasha grey than bobbi starr?

    • http://bloodandthumbsticks.blogspot.com/ The Overmatt

      1. I’m sure if Sasha started doing a guest blog here then people would immediately start bitching about it.
      2. Sasha at the very least seems to have some kind of life outside of porn and also seems to be a reasonably intelligent individual, so maybe that’s a clencher. Then again, a lot of commenters here don’t seem to be the kind to apprciate intelligence either.

      • Cryzthormagnusian

        I’ve always heard about this supposed intelligence from Sasha Grey but honestly I haven’t paid enough attention to really see it.

        From what I have seen though she just name drops some important names from literature or mentions some old French film directors and everyone just thinks, “wow, she knows Godard and Dostoyevsky and also does double anal. She must really be intelligent.”

        Maybe she really is an intelligent person in true sense and not just name dropping key names from a couple of college courses she took, I don’t know. I’m just stating what I’ve seen as a casual observer.

        • http://bloodandthumbsticks.blogspot.com/ The Overmatt

          For all I know you’re totally right and she’s just name-dropping. Still, I dunno, she at least seems to be able to hold her own on topics other than porn, so that puts her above most other porn stars in my book.

  • Jenderle7

    Well they both have something in common…..they both suck dick

  • Seer

    ehh shes just okay.

  • Honeynutzz

    I heard this on MI last night thought about e mailing it to you guys, but looks like I was right to assume that you would be on top of it anyway.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Eirik-Kjs-Usterud/1067091137 Eirik Kjøs Usterud

    I haven’t seen anything with Sasha Grey in it, but she sings or something on the new Current 93 album so I automatically respect her

  • well duh…

    It’s called publicity folks. Write a boring ass song dissing a famous sexy pornstar. Bound to cause an uproar for your new piece of shit album that everyone has heard 30 million times before.

    So the Antagonist are trying to Attention Whore out to get publicity.

    I bet they shoot knuckle babies to Sasha Grey on a regular basis.

    I know i do.

    • http://www.omimetal.wordpress.com The Greys

      I think you nailed (maybe right in the ass) … Antagonist is trying to get everybody talking about them, which, I guess, they did.

      The song is still a bore, however. Very generic. The only way a song like this would be noticed is if they band tried to stir up controversy.

      I read an article about this girl once. She seems a little scary – smart, but artificial, like she’s manufactured her entire personality. But I guess that’s to be expected in the business she’s in. Really pretty girl, however.

  • ram-paige

    so… im guessing they’re a christian band, otherwise they’re just hypocritical dicks.
    actually either way they’re hypocritical dicks.

    • William Grimmkvlt

      Aren’t a lot of Metalcore bands Christian?

      • Jordanzig

        Antagonist actually has some anti-Christian lyrics, so you’re wrong, ram-paige. The vast majority of metalcore bands are not Christian, but a few are.

        Sasha Grey is definitely a whore, though.

      Exactly. It’s very transparent.

      • Severine Sevigny

        Seconded. I have nothing for/against her being in porn, but the whole..”look at me I’m so intelligent” schtick is completely obvious. She tries way too hard. I’m surprised she’s not smoking Gauloises and deconstructing Immanuel Kant’s philosophy in interviews. Yet. Or maybe she does that in private for fun. Ease up Sasha! It’s okay to enjoy Sartre, Camus, ad infinitum… as well as guilty reads like Perez Hilton, TMZ et al. (Miss Sevigny proceeds to flinch from all the mocksters…)

  • CHUMBAWUMBA

    I liked her more when I wasn’t aware of how pretentious she is. Oh well, doesn’t stop me from watching her ass get pounded into oblivion every once in a while.

  • M.

    what the fuck kind of eyebrows are those? like did she buy them off of Brooke Shields?

  • yetzer hara

    sasha is amazing and the antagonist are an awful, awful band.

    i’d drink sasha grey’s bath water. good god, is she hot. and smart. and into good music. and fucks like a beast with a filthy whore mouth.

  • \m/Eluveitie\m/

    That was really the best picture of Sasha you boys could come up with?!

  • M.

    also doesn’t the antagonist have a girl singer? maybe she’s jealous or something.

  • DemonicLemming

    The band could be doing the song as a general thing against porn starts, just using her name as the title because she’s popular now? Seems like it’d make more sense to use a more historically-well-known porn star like Jenna Jameson, but whatever. I don’t pretend to follow either the band (never heard of them) or the personal lives of porn stars, though.

    I do think it’s funny how many guys think so many porn stars are “gorgeous” or “fucking hot” or whatever. Stick almost any chick in porn and guys are going to say the same thing regardless of whether she’s really above-average attractive or not. If Sasha Gray didn’t do porn, most people wouldn’t give her much more of a second glance, but since she fucks on video for money, guys think she’s insanely hot. That goes for a lot of porn stars…maybe that’s why amateur porn is becoming so popular, because people are finally figuring out there are a lot of normal females a lot hotter than most porn stars, and that normal chicks like to fuck just about as much as porn stars, just not professionally on camera for money? I don’t get the guys who defend porn stars against detractors, either…it’s not like they’re going to do anything with them for defending them on an internet forum, they fuck guys based on studio contracts for money, not because they’re attracted to every guy who walks part.

    Gah, who knows, my brain is fried from being outside all day…

      I still think porn stars are nothing more than legal prostitutes.

      • M.

        sometimes they are girls who couldn’t hold a boyfriend for more than a month so after their fake lesbian adventures ended they decided to suck cock and let people drop their golf pencils into her mineshaft for a living.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Troy-Rickard/1516566408 Troy Rickard

    I haven’t heard this song or the lyrics, or ever heard of Sasha Grey before, but if this is true I’d laugh my ass off if Sasha were to legally pursure a lawsuit against Antagonist for Defamation. I remember lots of people suing over that shit just for bullshit posted on Myspace or Facebook. Eh. Fuck that band.

    • DemonicLemming

      Uh, defamation, when it’s true?

      • http://www.omimetal.wordpress.com The Greys

        I don’t think it fits the definition of defamation. I think part of the definition is that the statement has to be false, the person making the statement has to know it’s false and the statement has to do serious harm to a person’s character or livelihood. The bar is pretty high on defamation and slander, from what I recall.

        Sasha Grey is also a “public figure,” which makes some difference. Public figures aren’t quite as protected as the non-famous/infamous people.

        • http://www.facebook.com/people/Troy-Rickard/1516566408 Troy Rickard

          “It is usually, but not always,[1] a requirement that this claim be false and that the publication is communicated to someone other than the person defamed (the claimant).”

          Shrug.
          Be interesting to know if she’s aware of this song……And if she has anything to respond with.

  • http://www.myspace.com/antagonist Carlos (Antagonist)

    Funny ass article, not going to lie. Thanks to Axel Rosenburg for being lighthearted about the song title, and not taking it too seriously, as some of the people on here have. Here’s the scoop on our song (and sorry to disappoint you all):

    Originally, all the working titles of the new tracks were names of some of our favorite porn stars (i.e. bree olsen, sunny lane, and of course, sasha grey). When I was writing lyrics for the album, I had the idea to keep one of the titles “as is” and base the theme of this song around the idea of someone who is selling themselves just to get ahead, just to be in the limelight, but losing all their integrity in the process. Basically, someone who is blinded by fame and fortune and forgets where they came from.

    We kept the name “Sasha Grey” because she happens to be one of our FAVORITE pornstars right now, quite the contrary of what many of you have said. It’s not meant to be a bash at her at all, the lyrics aren’t about her. The title is more of a tribute, even if the lyrics state otherwise.

    Anyway, hope that cleared up the misconception. Sorry to burst all your bubbles, and make sure to pick up a copy of the album on August 17th, since I know you guys all LOVE my band :)

    -Carlos (Antagonist)

    • meh

      good job carlos♥

      • http://www.omimetal.wordpress.com The Greys

        “The title is more of a tribute, even if the lyrics state otherwise.”

        That’s more than a little nonsensical, isn’t it? Here’s a song about “the idea of someone who is selling themselves just to get ahead, just to be in the limelight, but losing all their integrity in the process.” And the song is named after a celebrity. But it’s not about that celebrity. Again, that makes little sense. No wonder people are perplexed.

        Good thing for you the song misses the mark for defamation/slander, because that argument would not hold up well in court.

        • http://www.myspace.com/antagonist Carlos (Antagonist)

          Again, all the songs working titles were names of Porn Stars, this one just stuck. Nothing nonsensical about it. It’s not even about a celebrity to begin with, it could fit any type of person who “sells out.” I don’t know this girl personally, I don’t know if she has inner turmoil or if she’s selling herself to be in the limelight. IT’S JUST A SONG TITLE, plain and simple. Don’t get your panties in a bunch.

  • Whiitier1

    The lead singer use to date sasha grey

    • ,

      lyke totally.

  • kmfcm

    i don’t buy it.

    she’s kind of a hipster

    Mandy Morbid, I sorta believe it
    Joanna Angel, I sorta believe it

    . . .then again, Sasha is Velvet Cacoon

  • thorngrimmdoomhammer

    And Velvet Cacoon were a fucking sweet band… hands down some of the best black metal to come out of the states recently.

    And no, nobody in Antagonist used to date Sasha Grey. When they were demoing their upcoming album, they named all the songs after porn stars, the rest got renamed but this one stuck.

  • CharlieB

    Seriously who the fuck cares what anyone says about a porn actor. Nor do I care about what she thinks. There are so many more important things going on in the world, yet we pay attention to this shit.

      Just wanted to add that I don’t find her physically attractive.

    They don’t care about your thoughts honey.

  • bambismom

    wow how can anyone respect this girl? what’s there to respect? she has sex with the nastiest bunch of dudes for money. she’s not intelligent at all if she’s willing to let men treat her like that on film (she can’t possibly be enjoying herself when 15 guys force their dicks up her throat until she suffocates). and you respect that? there’s something seriously wrong with our society if she gets so much credit just for being pretty and harming herself the way she does… its sickening and degrading!

    At first I was not paying attention when I saw the song listed and thought that the song was called “Antagonist” and was sung by Sasha Grey. it initially made sense since I know that she is a bit of a Metal head.
