The Misfits - Static Age


Listen Later

Alright I'm going to keep this description short and sweet, like a good Misfits song. They're the quintessential horror pop band. Glenn Danzig is the original lead singer and is a wild m-fer and after cycling through all the available musicians in the Queens punk scene, just decided to do his own thing. Static Age (this freakin album) was mostly recorded in 1978 at C.I. Recordings, but it was too friggin scary and raw for the record execs to understand, so they just released the songs into a bunch of comps and E.P.s instead. Cut to 1996. The Misfits are finally getting some cred. They release a boxset with a bunch of other shit and most of this album and decided "what the fuck, let's just release the whole damn thing" and so they finally released Static Age in it's entirety for the first time in 1997, a full nineteen years after it was recorded. No wonder these guys are so violent.
