The Gauntlet spoke with Goatwhore and Solient Green frontman today and when the topic of Michael Jackson's death came up, Ben had the following to say "Death is inevitable. Move on. I think if it was Angus Young I’d be fucking tripping out. Or maybe someone from Priest. It is what it is. I kind of get aggravated when they make such a big deal about it. Do you make a big deal when average Joe dies? Yes, he made Thriller which was the highest grossing album of all time. He is just another person, death is inevitable in everyone’s life. Maybe if it was your closest friends or family. Where are your values at?" To read the rest of his response on Michael Jackson, click here
