Glenn Danzig a name that permeates, infects, and ultimately makes strong, the very soul of
hard rock. Considered to be the artist who has "launched a thousand bands," Danzig, through
the legendary punk charge of his pre-Danzig outfits Misfits and Samhain, has formed the
backbone of today’s mosh movement. He has been referred to as a man who has launched a
thousand bands. Dive into the deep waves of the Danzig catalogue, and you've got an artist who
has created high-tension hybrids that are still being pondered and quietly adopted throughout
today's metal community. In a career that has spanned across 5 decades, Danzig has mastered a
meld of punk, doom, gothic new wave and an intense California twist on black Satanic metal,
culminating in a display of shockingly dark hard rock that sends chills the likes of which today's
Norwegian church-burners could never know.
2013 will mark several Danzig achievements- it marks the 25th anniversary of "Danzig," the
seminal album that contained the hits "Mother," "Twist of Cain," "Am I Demon," and "She
Rides" Upon it's release, MTV immediately banned the "Mother" video for its controversial
imagery. This summer, "Danzig" will be reissued with various never-before-released bonus
materials in several new packages.
Also 2013 will see the release of "Skeletons," Glenn Danzig's first ever collection of cover
songs. "Skeletons" includes covers of songs by such artists as The Troggs, The Rascals, Elvis
Presley, Black Sabbath, The Everly Brothers, Nancy Sinatra and Lee Hazelwood along with
the biker theme "Devil's Angels" and the theme from "Satan's Sadists."
Over the years, Danzig's music has been covered by a very diverse collection of artists that
includes Roy Orbison, Metallica and Johnny Cash. Through "Skeletons," Danzig will give a
rare look into songs and artists that have influenced or made their mark on Glenn throughout his
career… all done in that unique Danzig style.
Perhaps most poignant in 2013 will be the addition of Doyle Von Frankenstein to all Danzig
dates in the US, UK and Europe. This will mark the first and perhaps only time that UK and
European audiences will see Danzig and Doyle perform a Misfits set together in addition to the
full Danzig set. Throughout 2013, once again we will see the disciples studying the master.
