Paul Ryan has pulled the plug on Twisted Sister's 1984 hit We’re Not Gonna Take It after the band's frontman denounced the Republican vice-presidential running mate, who used the song at a Pennsylvania rally.
Dee Snider asked that the rebellious rock anthem be disassociated from the political campaign, saying there is "almost nothing" Ryan stands for that he agrees with.
"I emphatically denounce Paul Ryan's use of my band Twisted Sister's song, We’re Not Gonna Take It, in any capacity," Snider said in a statement posted to the Talking Points Memo website.
