  • Michale Graves was the replacement of Glenn Danzig. Were the Misfits still good? Debatably they were just as great. They fused metal with their signature horror punk and increased production values. Albums such as American Psycho, Famous Monsters, and Cuts from the Crypt define a gnarly era of the monsters known as Misfits!

    I like misfits with Graves. Dig up her bones is one of my favs.

    What about Helena on Famous Monsters? That song has a dark horror romance story, and it's heavy as hell.

    Saturday night is also my favorite song from famous monsters.
    The song is so sad, romantic and beautiful.

    I like all Misfits but you can't beat the Danzig stuff, in my opinion. I would say Graves is a better vocalist but the Danzig songs are just flat out better.

    Let's be honest, if Famous Monsters was written by anyone else, it would have set the punk rock scene alight, but in the true elitist rock fan, so many people have written it off without listening to it

      @KillbotAndGorGorAttack  3 роки тому +3

      Gotta remember this Misfits was a different band altogether. I prefer the older albums, but have no problem jamming Don’t Open til Doomsday, Dig Up Her Bones, The Hunger, or Saturday Night.

      It's pretty terrible, not to mention they stole Metallica riffs for it. I like a lot of the Graves-era but Helena is dreadful.

    • @thetornprince138
      @thetornprince138 7 років тому +2

      Great song! That was pretty much the band letting Doyle do his thing on guitar. He was writing more metal style songs much like what you hear with his Solo music today. Saying they stole Metallica riffs for it made me laugh. Not true at all

    Helloween reunited with Hansen and Kiske and now they have three guitarists and two lead singers and it works. Imagine if Misfits did the same and started playing with both Graves and Danzig. What a great lineup it would be!

    Ironic how similar these debates are to Di'Anno vs Dickinson of Iron Maiden. The original singer gave a unique punk vibe, as well as making their bands instantly recognizable (Paul and Glenn). Nothing could ever beat the debut and first records. HOWEVER with Michale and Bruce they gave the band a more complete and heavier sound, and well their vocal skills were technically superior... Up the Misfits and Irons!

    I like Graves era more, but I like Danzig as well, I think for me its just because of my age, Graves was the voice of the misfits as I was getting into my early teens and just starting to get into music my first era of punk was 90s era, Green Day, Offspring, Rancid, Graves/Misfits, Pennywise, Lagwagon etc

    There are 2 different bands called the Misfits. 1 is fronted by Danzig. 1 is fronted by Graves. There is also a band I call Jerry Only and Friends, which covers Misfits songs anytime that Jerry runs his one of a kind singers off.

  • @reservedhogs4735
    @reservedhogs4735 8 років тому +6

    I like Famous Monsters better than American Psycho. It sounded a lot cleaner and heavier than American Psycho, and it had less filler and more catchy songs. Michale's vocals sounded a lot better. His calm, clean voice combined with the heavy, bassy guitar and bass sounded great.
    I feel like American Psycho had a bit of First Album Syndrome, which you also see on Static Age for example. The band hadn't quite found their sound yet, and you could hear that the band was experimenting more. Another symptom of First Album Syndrome is that the production is very raw and the playing is sloppier than on the later albums. This was also the case for American Psycho.

    • @KillbotAndGorGorAttack
      @KillbotAndGorGorAttack  8 років тому +5

      I'm not really into metalcore. However, Killswitch is a good band (even if they're not the style I'm into). Gotta enjoy their riffs. I will say that metalcore has probably gotten better over the years, as the pig squealing seems to have died down. Plus, the death/metal-core bands at summer slaughter this year were of good quality so I guess it differs from band to band.

    I've just "discovered" Graves Misfit s. I dismissed them when they were out because my nephew liked them. I didn't care much for Danzig era Misfits. My band covered their Last Caress but I changed all the lyrics to make it about Diffrent Strokes. It's just funnier raping Phillip Drummond than somebody mother.

    • @KillbotAndGorGorAttack
      @KillbotAndGorGorAttack  8 років тому +2

      I like the later logo because I prefer the later albums. However, the logo from the first three albums with the blood/spiders/death head looks more visually pleasing. I used to have a Death shirt where the back of it had the Spiritual Healing lineup. Maybe you can look into that!
