In a recent “Come On Over” podcast interview, Sebastian Bach discussed the physical toll of his high-energy live shows.
“Well, I’ve gotta dial it back physically, to be honest with you,” he said (as transcribed by Blabbermouth). “That headbanging bulls**t, I cannot do that anymore. And I have this thing where I get on stage and my brain says, ‘Don’t be a p*ssy. F**king kick their a*s, you motherf**ker. You f**king go.’
“When I’m onstage, I don’t know why, but I don’t feel any pain up there,” he continued. “I laugh when I’m on stage, I go, ‘Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Oh, my ankle hurts.’ And I say to myself, ‘Nobody’s here to see your f**king ankle! Nobody cares about your ankle!’ That’s the voice in my head. ‘Nobody cares about your shoulder, dude! Nobody cares!’
“So, I don’t know why I’m like that, but when I get off stage, my shoulder goes, ‘Hey, man, f**k you. Hey, you don’t care about your shoulder, huh? You don’t care about your back, you don’t care about your neck. Well, guess what? You’re gonna be caring about it tonight, and when you wake up tomorrow, your neck is gonna be [stiff] like this.”
In a 2013 interview with Blinded By Sound, Sebastian Bach hinted that his high-energy stage persona might not be sustainable as he approached his late 50s.
“Well, you know, Tom Araya from SLAYER is one the the greatest frontmen of all time and he injured his neck and back from headbanging in that figure-eight motion that I do all the time,” Bach said at the time. “He destroyed his back and had to get surgery and is not physically able to headbang anymore because of the damage he’s done. I’m not at that point yet or anything, but when you’re banging your head as hard as you can, I kind of wonder what’s happening to my brain as it’s bashing into the wall of my skull. I look at footage of myself and think, ‘Maybe that’s not so good for you.’ [Laughs] I don’t see most people banging their heads like trying to snap their craniums off their necks. Basically, the reason I’m telling you and the world is that it’s more impressive to me, artistically, to be more accurate and good than be a cheeerleader.”

During an appearance on the latest episode of the “Come On Over” podcast, former SKID ROW singer Sebastian Bach spoke about the physical demands of his energetic live performances. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “Well, I’ve gotta dial it back physically, to be honest with you. That headbanging bullshit, I cannot do that anymore. And I have this thing where I get on stage and my brain says, ‘Don’t be a pussy. Fucking kick their ass, you motherfucker. You fucking go.’
“When I’m onstage, I don’t know why, but I don’t feel any pain up there,” he explained. “I laugh when I’m on stage, I go, ‘Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Oh, my ankle hurts.’ And I say to myself, ‘Nobody’s here to see your fucking ankle! Nobody cares about your ankle!’ That’s the voice in my head. ‘Nobody cares about your shoulder, dude! Nobody cares!’ So, I don’t know why I’m like that, but when I get off stage, my shoulder goes, ‘Hey, man, fuck you. Hey, you don’t care about your shoulder, huh? You don’t care about your back, you don’t care about your neck. Well, guess what? You’re gonna be caring about it tonight, and when you wake up tomorrow, your neck is gonna be [stiff] like this.”
Last May, Bach talked toSiriusXM‘s “Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk” about a physical injury that he sustained during his run of dates in Latin America. He said: “We just did six or seven shows in South America. And I got good news and bad news about that. The good news was the shows were incredible. The bad news, and I’m saying this to myself as much as I’m saying it to you, the days of my figure-eight headbanging are past me now. I cannot do that anymore. Tom Araya [SLAYER] had to stop doing it. Phil Anselmo [PANTERA] had to stop doing it. I just did six shows when I was doing it the way I usually do it, and when I got home, I have spent the last five days fucking paralyzed, taking Swedish massage, doing yin yoga stretching because my neck and my back are telling me, ‘Dude, that shit is fucking over now.’ And it’s freaking me out, because I feel like Gene Simmons [KISS] going on stage without the makeup. That’s part of my show. But what can you do?”
In a 2013 interview with Blinded By Sound, Sebastian seemingly predicted that he would not be able to continue performing the same way into his late 50s. He said at the time: “Well, you know, Tom Araya from SLAYER is one the the greatest frontmen of all time and he injured his neck and back from headbanging in that figure-eight motion that I do all the time. He destroyed his back and had to get surgery and is not physically able to headbang anymore because of the damage he’s done. I’m not at that point yet or anything, but when you’re banging your head as hard as you can, I kind of wonder what’s happening to my brain as it’s bashing into the wall of my skull. I look at footage of myself and think, ‘Maybe that’s not so good for you.’ [Laughs] I don’t see most people banging their heads like trying to snap their craniums off their necks. Basically, the reason I’m telling you and the world is that it’s more impressive to me, artistically, to be more accurate and good than be a cheeerleader.”
Nearly a decade and a half ago, SLAYER was forced to cancel shows so that Araya could undergo emergency treatments for neck and back problems. He eventually had a titanium steel plate attached to his spine and held together by screws.
“It was all from the same thing — the posture that I took playing my bass onstage, leaning forward and putting a lot of pressure and weight to the front,” Tom told the San Francisco Examiner. “All from 30 years of being in the same position, headbanging.”
In recent years, Anselmo underwent a line of corrective procedures designed to helped him deal with the damage to his back, neck, and knees sustained over decades of touring.
Anselmo later said that while all the surgeries have certainly helped, he was never completely cured from the physical damage he had done to his body.
In a 2005 interview with Revolver magazine, Anselmo said that the back problem had plagued him since the late 1990s when the lowest lumbar disc in his back was “ruptured — shattered from being onstage since I was 14 years old, jumping off the stage, off [PANTERA drummer] Vinnie‘s [Paul Abbott] drum set, going as crazy as possible.”
Bach‘s latest solo album, “Child Within The Man”, was released in May 2024 via Reigning Phoenix Music. The LP was recorded in Orlando, Florida; produced and mixed by Michael “Elvis” Baskette; engineered by Jef Moll, assistant engineered by Josh Saldate and mastered by Robert Ludwig of Gateway Mastering. Bach wrote or co-wrote all the album’s 11 tracks and sang all lead and backing vocals.
“Child Within The Man” features guest appearances from John 5 (MÖTLEY CRÜE, ROB ZOMBIE, MARILYN MANSON),Steve Stevens (BILLY IDOL) and Orianthi (ALICE COOPER, MICHAEL JACKSON) — who all co-wrote their respective tracks with Bach — and two tracks co-written with ALTER BRIDGE‘s Myles Kennedy (“What Do I Got to Lose?” and “To Live Again”). Devin Bronson (guitars),Todd Kerns (bass) and Jeremy Colson (drums) round out the players on the album. The album is available on jewelcase CD, cassette, and double LP in a variety of color options.
SEBASTIAN BACH On His Live Performances: ‘That Headbanging Bulls, I Cannot Do That Anymore’
Sebastian Bach, the iconic frontman of Skid Row, has been known for his energetic and wild live performances for decades. However, in a recent interview, the rock legend revealed that he is no longer able to headbang like he used to.
Bach explained, "I used to go crazy on stage, headbanging and jumping around like a maniac. But as I’ve gotten older, my body just can’t handle that level of intensity anymore. It’s not that I don’t have the passion or energy, it’s just physically impossible for me to do that kind of headbanging bulls anymore."
Despite this limitation, Bach assured fans that his live performances are still full of passion and energy. He stated, "I may not be headbanging like a madman, but I still give 110% on stage. The music is still loud, the vocals are still powerful, and the connection with the audience is still there. That’s what matters most to me."
Fans of Sebastian Bach can rest assured that while the headbanging may be toned down, the rock legend’s live performances are still as electrifying as ever.
