https://medium.com/ko63-music/glen-matlock-forever-forward-287ec224e380It’s an unavoidable fact that any reference to Glen Matlock usually has the words “legend,” “icon” or “pioneer” attached to it. And while the original Sex Pistol doesn’t shy away from his past as a punk luminary, he isn’t living in it, either.
“I say, ‘F**k that, listen to the new record,’” said Matlock. “That’s what I’m more interested in. The past is the past. It was so long ago I can barely remember it, apart from the fact that people ask you about it. I don’t even think about it. I don’t get up in the morning thinking, ‘Oh, you used to be in the Sex Pistols.’ It’s not like that. I’m more interested in writing a new song. That’s what I find interesting is the sense of achievement somehow and how can I get from A to B. It’s a battle. I think basically my quest is to get people to think about what I’m doing now so I don’t have to live in the past all the time.”
