Misfits....

   Is their music any good? I can't find any CD's of theirs anywhere I look. Every punk who's not a poser seems to know their songs and who they are and they're skull symbol is EVERYWHERE! I asked my bro about old-school punk bands and he said Misfits sucked. But he's never been into punk rock and he could've been drunk on the phone. So tell me about them. It's weird with me. I ask the kind of person who MIGHT like a band who catches my interest and if they say they suck it throws me outta wack. I like CAN'T like them for a long time.

   Meh, not a fan of em, but I liked em a while ago. Have two of their CDs American Psycho and Static Age My biggest complaint is that their CDs usually have like 17 songs on em, which sounds good, but isn't when they are usually, on average, only 2 minutes long. Cut the songs in half and make like 10 decent, longer tracks. I like their sound, but I loose interest in the song quickly cause they are too short enough to enjoy

   Okay here we go. The Misfits pretty much started the genre horror-punk. They get a lot of their influences from old horror films, like the black and white ones. Their really good, the songs are really short because that's how a lot of punk music is. Real fast. Their name came from the name of Marilyn Monroe's last film before she disapeared. There are many different forms of the Misfits, the original, and the best by my standards, was in the seventies and eighties, with Glenn Danzig as the singer, who left to form Danzig, a metal band. The other, in which Vanguard owns, has Michale Graves, good singer, but when he joined he never even heard of the Misfits, which in theory, killed them. And last but not least, the Project 1950's Misfits. Their bass player Jerry Only, along with Dez Cadena of Black Flag and Marky Ramone of the Ramones, toured doing covers of old 50's and 60's songs. And there ya have it. If I were you, and you were interested in them, go to Hot Topic in the nearest mall (worst store ever, but they have cd's) and look for either Collections II or Plan 9. If you can't get those, then get whatever else you find. Try to get anything that is pre-Static Age or Famous Monsters.

   Thanks Skankinrudy. I hate going to Hot Topic... all the posers seem to hang out in there and I hear the clothes never fit and all the junk is is grosely over priced.... I've never baught anything from there I can get it way less on the internet or at other shops. I didn't know they sold CD's there so I think I'll brave the humiliation of carrying the bag around the mall and grab a few CD's. Thanks for the information.
