um you know danzig was on other albums too right?

Yes but I only like those two.

Graves..he has a better voice for that kind of music..I guess you would label it Horror punk.

Gotta go with Danzig, he might be an *******, but Graves is a douche who ruins that classic misfits sound.

Saying he is a douche for ruining the "Classic" sound makes you a douche.

All three singers (Danzig, Graves, and Only) are douchbags. But Danzig was the best lead singer among the three.

I met Jerry Only once and I have to say he didn't seem like a douchebag. He was actually really nice.

Don't judge a book by it's cover. He was the worst of the three though.

How so?

As a singer, his performances are bad.

Oh sure, I'd agree with that. I'm just saying I think he's a nicer guy than Danzig.

Probably didn't take much effort either.

On my all time douchbag list, Danzig is in a tight race with Henry Rollins to be #1. The only thing Danzig has going for him is that I like some of his music, unlike Rollins whose music and personality I can't stand.

Rollins' a douche?

He never seemed like it to me.

Same here..I thought he looked like a nice guy.

I've watched a number of interviews and videos of Rollins, and he always stuck me as a jerk.

Now granted, in a personal meeting Rollins and the others may be great guys, but from what I've seen, they all seem to have inflated egos and wouldn't be the type of person I'd want to hang around with.

Plus, I readily admit to having a chip on my shoulder with Rollins anyway since Black Flag went to crap with him as the lead singer. So my opinion may be skewed from the get go.

He always seemed like a pretty likable, funny, self-effacing kind of guy to me whenever I've seen him talk.

Jerry is really nice, I never said anything about him, and I didnt mean Graves was a douche for ruining the sound just read an interview with the guy to find out why I said he was.

Well, who didn't see this coming?

lol

Danzig. Everything Graves has done is terrible.

As far as Henry Rollins goes... He strikes me as the type of guy who can take himself a little too seriously. Especially in older interviews. Newer ones, still a pretty serious guy but he seems to have a sense of humor about it. His standup gigs can be pretty hilarious and are worth youtubing.

Danzing, on the other hand, is a douchebag ******* who gets knocked out in one punch. Just a really pointlessly cynical *******. Would not wanna meet in person, every interview I've seen of him is just macho bravado bull****. At least Rollins comes across pretty aware of things that aren't himself.


>>>>>>

This conversation is 4 years old, that last post is from 4 years ago yet it's on the front page?

Confused is me.

1. Danzig

2. Who cares, the Misfits broke up in 1983, and only reformed with an album 1997 when punk had become passé and irrelevant.

^seriously :)

Lol well its true, despite the fact that their is still a small hardcore underground, punk became assimilated into the mainstream defanged, and corporatized by bands like Green Day and Blink 182.

Even before that it adopted a collective uniform sound and fashion that competed for cultural space with heavy metal and later rap/hip hop.

Personally I think all musical genres based around fashion, symbols or lingo are loosely fascist though. Just my opinion.

have you ever been a part of a punk scene?

it's more fascist than fascist Italy :)

Yes I have still have my black armband that the Duce himself bestowed upon me to lead his youth movement. It was a great honour to weed out those Buddhist vegans who would not wear black leather jackets. :)

In all serious though, once a musical genre adopts a distinct style you are aligning yourself with a collective even if your tolerant of other collectives. So your a fascist lol.

The overwhelming answer to the OP is Danzig. Graves based material is almost Panto Misfits, great for getting to see 'The Misfits' live but in truth they were a defunct band as soon as Danzig left.
