Generation Swine, Mötley Crüe's seventh studio album, came out on Elektra on June 24, 1997, and it put the classic lineup back in the same room: Vince Neil returned for his first Crüe album since 1991's Decade of Decadence, rejoining Nikki Sixx, Mick Mars and Tommy Lee. Bob Rock produced, and the sound is a long way from the glam gloss of old: distorted, jittery and restless, a band trying to find its footing in a changed decade.
The title, and the title track, came from Hunter S. Thompson's Generation of Swine. "Afraid" was the song radio took to. It was the band's last record for Elektra, and the last with Lee behind the kit until Saints of Los Angeles in 2008.
