Island of Misfits-Danzig.



You’ve read the weird news reports on Danzig. The pile of bricks in front of his house. The setup knockout punch. The odd, macabre items in his house. His hatred for having his picture taken. His love of see-through mesh shirts.

But the guy rocks. If you forgot that, or have never really been exposed, here is a great primer. I avoided most of the songs that Metallica has covered. What’s here are mostly fast paced, punk-fueled gems and a few Elvis-influenced (dare I say) crooneresque numbers that dot the man’s catalog.

History crash course: original singer/founder of Misfits (1977-1983); Samhain (1984-1987); Danzig (1987-current)

So take your shirt off, get angry and listen to this you fucking Misfit…
