Jesse Malin, 56, revealed that he was left paralyzed from the waist down after suffering from a spinal stroke last month.
The former D Generation frontman said he was at a dinner when he suffered the stroke. The dinner he attended was in honor of fellow D Generation band member Howie Pyro, who died last year from Covid-19 complications and liver disease.
“Everybody was standing above me like in Rosemary’s Baby, saying all these different things, and I was there not knowing what was going on with my body,” he said after feeling lower back pain that traveled to his heels before eventually collapsing on the floor.
Since the stroke, the vocalist has been living at a New York University rehab center, where he spends his days undergoing physical therapy sessions and “neurological care.”
“This is the hardest six weeks that I’ve ever had,” he told Rolling Stone.

D Generation frontman Jesse Malin is currently paralyzed from the waist down after suffering a rare spinal stroke in early May. After keeping his condition under wraps for several weeks, the New York punk legend has opened up about his struggles in a new interview with Rolling Stone.
The 56-year-old Malin, who’s been stage diving and crowd surfing for decades, actually suffered the spinal stroke (also known as a spinal-cord infarction) while out to dinner with friends in New York City’s East Village on May 4th to commemorate the one-year anniversary of the passing of his D Generation bandmate Howie Pyro. He suddenly felt a burning pain that shot down from his lower back to his legs, and collapsed to the floor.
Malin was carried by Murphy’s Law singer Jimmy G to a nearby apartment hallway, where an ambulance came to rush him to the hospital. He...

On the last Saturday of March at New York’s Webster Hall, Jesse Malin was doing what he’s done a thousand times before: leaping off the stage and wading through a sold-out crowd toward the back bar, which he climbed atop to lead a singalong of his song “She Don’t Love Me Now.”
Malin’s parting-the-Red-Sea bit with his microphone — he requests two 50-foot cords at every show; “the extra linguine,” he calls it — is a signature of his concerts, and it’s how he wants his fans...

Howie Pyro, a founding member of New York City punk band D Generation, pioneering party DJ, and avid collector of music and movie ephemera, died Wednesday. He was 61. Pyro had undergone a liver transplant last year and was recovering in a Los Angeles hospital. Jesse Malin, Pyro’s friend and bandmate in D Generation, confirmed his death from Covid-related pneumonia following a long battle with liver disease.
Pyro was an integral yet unassuming fixture of New York’s gritty punk scene in the Seventies and Eighties, part groundbreaking artist and part observer.

Jesse Malin immortalized London’s Columbia Hotel on his 2004 album The Heat, writing about the loneliness and liberation of the transient existence in the song “Hotel Columbia.” It’s a theme he explores further and brings to colorful life in the new video for “Room 13,” the lead single off his upcoming album Sunset Kids.
Directed by Dito Montiel, the video finds Malin checking in to the Pink Hotel in L.A.’s San Fernando Valley, where he ruminates, as the lyrics go, on the shadows on his wall and the voices in the hall.
