Watch a cartoon version of Puddle of Mudd’s Wes Scantlin “apologize” to Kurt Cobain

Francesco Castaldo/Pacific Press/ LightRocket via Getty ImagesThe Wes Scantlin Nirvana cover saga has now reached the cartoon world.

To catch you up, the Puddle of Mudd frontman has been getting flak online for the last two weeks after a video of his strained performance of Nirvana’s “About a Girl” recorded earlier this year went viral.

In response to the criticism, Scantlin shared a post hitting back at “toxic people.” Now, in a follow-up post, Puddle of Mudd has shared a South Park-esque cartoon of Scantlin “apologizing” to the late Kurt Cobain.

“Wes Scantlin & Kurt Cobain talk it out!” the post’s caption reads. “Wes apologizes to Kurt Cobain for bad vocals!”

In the video, cartoon Scantlin tells cartoon Cobain, “Crap, I messed it up again,” to which cartoon Cobain responds, “Not a big deal, dude…everybody thinks we look alike anyway.”

Cartoon Scantlin then blames his performance on a “burrito,” and farts. Raucous laughter ensues. 

Puddle of Mudd released their comeback album, Welcome to Galvania, their first in 10 years, last September.
