It started as a twisted dream"... 25 years ago in a small town in New Jersey called Lodi. It was there in April of 1977, at the dawn of the punk movement, that the Misfits were born. Taking the title of Marilyn Monroe's last movie as their name in a move to immortalize her image - singer Glenn Danzig and bassist Jerry Only set out to make an impression. They wound up making history and creating a legacy that's power has not only stood the test of time, but transcended into an entirely new generation. Lineup changes followed and by early 1980, the band coalesced around co-founders, Glenn Danzig and Jerry Only along with guitarist Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein (Jerry's youngest brother). Throughout the span of their career, the Misfits audience has developed into More... (Submit New Misfits Lyrics) (Submit New Misfits Lyrics) Review about Misfits Closest Thing To A Real Misfits Show | Reviewer: Gorillaman ------ About the song Skulls performed by Misfits If you want to know what a real Misfits concert is like and maybe are too young or missed out in their heyday, please, don't waste your time going to a "Misfits" concert. Michael Graves provides subpar vocals and, even worse, occasionally Jerry Only tries to sing and then you better hope you brought some cotton to stuff in your ears. For the past two years in a row (he comes once a year), I went to the Danzig show at Nokia Arena in Grand Prarie, TX (suburb in between Dallas and Fort Worth) and after some metal opening acts and Danzig playing whatever his newest album was in it's entirety, Doyle Von Frankenstein joined Danzig on stage and they played all the old Misfits songs (seriously, it was like 80% of the 4 disc boxed set) and then ended with the classic Danzig like Mother and Twist of Cain and Show Me How The Gods Live. Watching Danzig and Doyle peform the old Misfits songs is WAAAAAY closer to a real Misfits concerts then the "Misfits" that are on tour now that remind me of when the Monkees went on tour with only two of the members actually living. I mean think about it, what would be closer to a band, the lead singer AND lead guitarist or the bassist, drummer, and replacement singer... You'll know it's the real thing when it sounds a million times better live than on record (the mark of a true punk band in those days.) Hmm..... | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Skulls performed by Misfits If only all horrorpunk/rock/metal bands could pull off hardcore and humour like these wonderful people could. ^ ^ Danzig/Samhain (Not sure what it is now{I think it's Danzig 'cuz Samhain was taken}) is a bit more hard metal and a tad more serious, but I still like it too. And bravo to Michael for breathing life into a dying legend! good song | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Skulls performed by Misfits This is a great Misfits song, probably one of my top five favorites of theirs... But, the Misfits being the best punk band ever? well, in my opinion, not even close. Good, great even, but best ever? no. Given the reviews below, other than Hell -- and, maybe, Hans -- I think I'm the only one old enough to have actually SEEN the Misfits live while Danzig was in the band. Their shows were totally awesome then, and in my opinion, similar but not so good now. They have the feel of has-beens recapturing lost youth and I find their shows more depressing than fun. Then again, I don't... er.. prep for shows like I did when I was a kid. ;p yay | Reviewer: etc. ------ About the song Saturday Night performed by Misfits lol so u love her in a murderous sorta way??? aint that cute, im kiddin good song probably in the top 20 of all time punk songs #1 goes to gg allin - sluts in the city, #2 is gg allin again with "expose yourself to kids" lmao gotta love it Old vs New? | Reviewer: MisfitsFan ------ About the song Dig Up Her Bones performed by Misfits Like a lot of bands, misfits doesnt have its original members, but that doesnt lower the quality of the music. This and a lot of other songs with Graves singing are great and i pity elitist douchebags like paco who will miss out on great music because theyre afraid of a little change Great lyrics fucked up and still catchy as hell | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Bullet performed by Misfits The misfits (Danzig Era) Lyrics are incredible. I love Michale Graves but his lyrics are just an interpretation of b-horror movies. Not that thats a bad thing. But the way Danzig inflicted his fucked up mind into every lyric really made the band unique. Fuck yeah helena is perfect, i think? | Reviewer: Patrick ------ About the song Helena performed by Misfits Well, to be honest, i have been a fiend for a year, maybe less, but i have known lots about this band,thanks to wikipedia and their bio. They have been through many chnges,and those changes have their up and downs. But this song is like a love song, but not just a love song, its a freaky-misfits like- love song in my opinion, i dot know, its just me. But just to rap this up, this song is awesumness material. if there was a scale to 1-5, this would be a 6. Re: paco | Reviewer: Taco ------ About the song Dig Up Her Bones performed by Misfits Both Doyle (guitar) and Jerry Only (bass) were part of the original lineup, and both of them were involved in releasing this album. Robo (drummer) re-joined a little later and Doyle left the Misfits... Of course its not the original Misfits, Danzig doesn't want any part of it (other than royalties from albums sold). Jerry Only is the founding member of the Misfits, he owns all the rights... So technically, Danzig was nothing but a frontman. However, I do agree with you, the old Misfits (Danzig era) were much better. Although Graves did a great job writing and performing the newer stuff, Danzig made the Misfits what they were back then and what they are today. One of, if not, THE best horror / punk bands of all time. A Real Fan Can Tell | Reviewer: Koopah ------ About the song Vampire Love performed by Misfits I had some problems finding the lyrics to this song .... I knew it wasn't recored by the Misfits but they kept coming up as the artists .... If you listen to it and actually know what the Misfits sound like in all they're Undead Glory, them you can tell this song isn't The Misfits .... misfit 4 life | Reviewer: punkrawk ------ About artist/band Misfits fuck who ever thinks the misfits are gay just because danzing's not there. so what if they sound diffrent who gives a fuck its punk rock they can care less. its all about the music and the changes they've made to the earth. they are a great band and will be till the end no doubt. LIVE ON MISFITS jigga wha? | Reviewer: paco ------ About the song Dig Up Her Bones performed by Misfits Does anyone here realize that this damn piece of crap song isn't even the real Misfits. First off Danzig isn't singing. Second, none of the members are from the original lineup. They showed up later on. This song is crap! ^_^ | Reviewer: Matthew Graves ------ About the song Resurrection performed by Misfits Misfits are amazing. Michale Graves is the voice of The Misfits to me. And I don't really care about all the Graves haters out there. Danzig was rad, I know. But I just like Graves better. This song is amazing. Its not the Misfits | Reviewer: Monty ------ About the song Vampire Love performed by Misfits Way to go all of you hardcore Misfit fans...THIS ISN'T BY THEM! The fact that this song is not listed on the Misfits homepage may be the tip off. If you buy the Deadlines album, "The Death and Life Of..." you can hear it. Unless this band is totally stealing from the Misfits, which I doubt, its not by them. Hate to break all of your goth hearts, but its not a Misfits song from the late 60's, early 70's or when Danzig was 19 and played keyboard. Its by a bunch of Christian rockers turned Horror punk who broke up in 2002. Vampire love | Reviewer: zombipigeon ------ About the song Vampire Love performed by Misfits it is by the dead lines you can look them up yourself. when i first heard this song, i was pretty skeptical. it sounded nothing like the old or new misfits. but yeah. it's by the deadlines (look them up) misfits "vampira" | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Vampire Love performed by Misfits the misfits have a song called vampira but this is not it, the song vampira can be found on many albums 12 hits from hell, walk among us, or on various disc of theier box set.its from the danzig era fuck emo | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Hybrid Moments performed by Misfits The Misfits are truely a founding hardcore horror punk band. I hate seeing little emo kids wearing Misfits shirts, thinking they know what it's all about, and in the meantime they jam out to My Anal Romance. Fuck you!! When will this disgrace to punk rock ever die out? Goddamn you.. | Reviewer: Hell ------ About the song Skulls performed by Misfits Everyone knows that they're not the same after Glenn left the band, but they can still be good. Of course they changed! People who say that they like Michale Graves don't mean that Glenn and Michale are the same thing or they sound exactly the same or that Graves is "more Misfits" than Danzig. It seems like some people don't understand that simple thing. Some of you also forget that there was some other members in the band with Glenn like Jerry Only and Doyle, it's also their band so if they want to reform it, they have the same rights to do it if they're going to make new music with the new band. It would be different if they just kept on playing the songs that Danzig made and Michale would never had made any own songs. Then you had an excuse to be mad, but now you really don't! So why wouldn't we all just listen to this amazing band without fighting about it all the time? Wow. | Reviewer: Hans ------ About the song Skulls performed by Misfits Okay, Glen Danzig made the Misfits and they definitely aren't the same now. If you think they are you are one stupid bastard with zero taste for music. When the Misfits reformed, they went to Glen Danzig and he refused to join the band. WHat most people don't even realize is that the Misfits songs the know and love, are written and sang by Glen Danzig. If they are no longer sang by him; they aren't are good. Just download some of the stuff and compare. The Misfits are good, I'll give you that, but they aren't anything close to what they used to be. god i love this song!!!! | Reviewer: sexxii ------ About the song MOMMY, CAN I GO OUT AND KILL TONIGHT? performed by Misfits this song has gotten me through some hard and stressful times...i just love the misfits!!! and by the way i went to their 35th aniversery last year and it was bomb! peace and loves to jerry only ;) the misfits no matter the singer will always be a great band | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Demonomania performed by Misfits i admit graves aint no danzig but its not like he sucks hes a great singer u cant have every singer for a band sounding the same graves has a lot of talent i mean i may like danzig more but graves is pretty awesome as is jerry You could review the artist/band Misfits in Biography page You could review Misfits album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review Misfits song by clicking the song which you like  Download "Misfits" Music | |
