Not a lot going on in this thread lately, then again, there hasn't been a lot of Danzig news, since his last album "Deth Red Sabaoth" - one of the best albums of 2010... in fact, one of my favourites of the past 5 years!

Well, finally there's a new album on the way, but it's a covers album:

Glenn Danzig's long-awaited covers record, "Skeletons", will be released in Europe this fall via Evilive Music/AFM Records. The CD, which was recorded with PRONG guitarist/vocalist Tommy Victor and former TYPE O NEGATIVE drummer Johnny Kelly, will include the ex-MISFITS frontman's take on songs by BLACK SABBATH ("N.I.B."), ZZ TOP ("Rough Boy"), THE TROGGS ("A Girl Like You"), THE EVERLY BROTHERS ("Crying In The Rain") and others.

The first single from "Skeletons" will be "Devil's Angels", which was originaly the theme song for the late '60s biker film of the same title. The track will be released on September 4 on seven-inch vinyl, strictly limited to 500 units. The B-side of the single will be a vocal-and-keyboard version of "Satan", from the 1969 biker flick "Satan's Sadists".

What can I say, I'm a huge Danzig fan! All the way from Samhain to present day Danzig. Whatever he releases, I'm there with my money, be it, music, lyrics book etc.

I'm generally not a big fan of covers albums, but at least you can trust Glenn to give each song his personal touch and after 5 years of waiting, I'll take any kind of "new" Danzig music.

Im a huge Danzig fan myself I have all the Danzig era Misfits, all the Samhain CDs... got them in a box set years ago. ....and all the Danzig albums as well ...I even have the double comp. Lost Tracks. I'll be looking into the cover album as well.

I loved Mother but everything else just wasn't anything like it. That sound is what I liked.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

I just heard N.I.B. on Ozzy's Boneyard. Pretty cool, even if it's virtually identical to the original instrumentally.

I can't find a studio version to link to at the moment.

 

[Ar-Pharazon]

^ Yeah, I found that live version, which is a little different than the studio version.

[Riff Raff]

Man if the mixing is that bad on the album I don't think I can bring myself to get it. That is awful mixing. The song itself is decent but the mixing ruins it.

Been waiting on this . I'm buying the CD and the Vinyl.
