Circle Jerks call for "an army of" Luigi Mangiones during Coachella set

Circle Jerks took the stage at Coachella this past weekend, and during their April 13 set, frontman Keith Morris paused the show to reflect on the lyrics of their song "Coup D'Etat." Specifically, he addressed the final line of the track, saying:

"That song, that last line, ends with 'kill all.' That's a pretty fucking ugly statement. In ugly times. Do not think that we encourage that."

Morris made it clear that, given the current political and social climate, the lyric no longer aligns with the band's message.

He followed up adding:

"What we do encourage, what would be totally fucking happening, would be an army of Luigis."

The comment referred to Luigi Mangione, who is currently facing first-degree murder charges in connection with the death of Brian Thompson, the CEO of UnitedHealthcare.
