Glenn Danzig began his musical career over 20 years ago as singer and founding member of the legendary horror-punk band The Misfits. In 1983, he parted company with the band, which disbanded soon afterwards (although they have recently re-formed with a new singer).Following his departure from the Misfits, he formed and fronted Samhain, which achieved some cult status, and followed that up with his self-titled project, Danzig, which, after 4 albums and an EP, achieved some mainstream success a few years ago with the radio and MTV hits "Mother" and "Cantspeak". His latest album, "Danzig 5 - blackacidevil", found him taking a radical departure into the industrial realm. His vocals have been drowned in a layer of distortion and the music is surrounded by electric drum beats and a wall of feedback. Indeed, his new material sounds more like Ministry or Nine Inch Nails, and is very unlike the heavy metal stylings presented on previous Danzig albums. Some people hate it, some people love it, but I believe everyone agrees that Glenn is an uncompromising artist, someone who lives by his own rules. I've decided that instead of loading this page with Misfits, Samhain, and Danzig Discographies and bios that I would just add some links to a few pages that have all that information, plus more. Also, I've included, for your viewing pleasure, a Gallery Of Glenn...my small shrine to the man and his music *smile*...enjoy... Enter the 7th House--Devilman has a great Danzig page with tons of super photos and up-to-the-minute info. on the band and tour dates, plus audio & video clips.
