Album Review

Danzig debuts with a record of simple, pounding, bluesy metal featuring lead singer Glenn Danzig's trademark Elvis-meets-Jim Morrison bellow and outlandishly dark, evil lyrics. There isn't a great deal of musical variety or complexity here, but the band powers its way through such signature tunes as "Twist of Cain," "Am I Demon," and the (future) hit "Mother" with a primal energy. Plus, Danzig's tongue-in-cheek posturing as the ultimate unholier-than-thou heavy metal frontman gives the record a definite appeal, even if one is not inclined to view his theatrics as dangerous or threatening. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide

Two words for ya':

-Sleazy

-Cheesy

That pretty much sums up the album. I was, and am still, a HUGE fan of the Misfits, and Samhain, but it was always hard for me to find a mature Danzig album, in my opinion. Danzig 4 is my favorite, although the 5th, BlackAciDevil wasn't bad either. You'd best stick with the Misfits, kiddies. That's where you can have "all murder, all guts, all fun."
