    I liked the 1st, Loved the 2nd, liked most of the 3rd (sistinas was boring AF) - but the rest are Mostly Miss. Even aside from music, He thinks he's some kind of horror auteur now but the stuff is laughably cringe. And it's hard to maintain a tough guy image when you get decked by North Side Kings....

    The debut and Lucifuge are incredible. Danzig's work in both the Misfits and Samhain is amazing as well. It was really intersting to see how Glenn Danzig evolved as an artist. The change of sound from Samhain's November Coming Fire which has a Goth rock meets metal and hard core punk to the debut which has a sparse Sabbath/ Early Zeppelin meets the Doors was quite incredible. November Coming Fire and Danzig's debut are my favorite two albums by Glen. He went on his own trajectory. A lot of the time it worked and sometimes it didn't but he was an artist who forged his own path. And what an unbelievable voice. Great conversation.

    I'll always remember watching The John Stewart show years ago and he had John Tesh on the show pushing his new album, and they were sitting at the piano and John Stewart starts singing "Mother" on the piano, and then he says to John Tesh "It's Danzig". John Tesh looked bewildered..he had no clue. Then John Stewart had Danzig on the show and Danzig was playing Can't Speak live, and Danzig tripped over the monitor. He tried to recover as gracefully as he could, but he looked pissed off.

    My ranking is exactly the same as Alo's. The 4th and 3rd albums are very close to me, but I like the songs on 4th a little better. The 1st and 2nd are very close too. But the debut is more to the point. The 2nd has a better sound but is not a "10 killers no fillers" like the first one (and I like the dry sound on it - that Rick Rubin/Andy Wallace no reverb sound). Also, the debut was not only the first Danzig album I've heard, but the first time I ever heard Glenn singing. I knew about the Misfits, but by 1989/90 there was not a way in hell you could find a Misfits album in Brazil. PS; The "Lost Tracks" comp. is also a good listening - lot of gems there.

    Crazy to me that Danzig was introduced to me through Metallica and their Misfits covers, listened to the debut and thought "HOLY CRAP IS THAT JAMES??" during Twist Of Cain... I love that debut, man, it's genuinely phenomenal. Weird to think about how Metallica started doing covers of Misfits songs during 87? James did the Danzig I songs in that same year probably... then Danzig and Metallica blew up. Now all these years later, in turn, the Misfits have went from sort of underground cult band to one of the biggest reunions and punk bands of all time.

I dig DemonSweatLive, the two studio originals on that is great! The Lost Tracks of Danzig is mandatory listening, some really great stuff on there. I'm not a fan of Kiss The Skull and I despise Wicked Pussycat (worst song he ever wrote imo), remove those and perhaps another song or two from I Lucifera and add all the songs from Lost Tracks recorded during that album and I Lucifera would probably be in my top 5.

Circle of Snakes (A bit cheap sounding and suffers from the nu metal market norms of the time but a lot of the songs are very strong) 5. 6 6. 7 (Patchy, bad NIN vibe w/ the production but a good handful of strong songs still) 7. 4p (honestly think this is a mess, great Biscuits performance but the songs massively regress back into Samhain territory and waste that killer band's potential) 8. Deth Red Sabboth 9. Black Laden Crown (Bizarre cheap production, I appreciate the economics of the Biz has changed but why bother if you aren't going to treat your art w/ a little respect - just jam them out live w/ the band SST / 70's rock style, f'christs sake! 10. Blackacidevil (Absolute car crash, I really love the Waxtrax industrial scene and I kinda get the idea on paper (esp w/ Glen's ego and why he'd want to get rid of the band) but the results are spectacularly cringe, genuinely one of the worst records I own)

    Been waiting for this video for a long time. Chris’s ranking is spot on I think. Danzig 5 is one of those fascinating albums akin to Celtic frost ‘Cold Lake’ or Discharge ‘Grave New World’ where a band just totally jumps the shark and fucks up creatively after such an innovative run. Blackacidevil is so bad I find it pretty funny sometimes actually. The opening line on it where SCREAMS out ‘girl I’m gonna make you c*m!’ Over bad programmed beats used to make my friends and I chuckle back in the day. Also I’m sorry but when he has been doing his own production over the last few albums Glen is ruining albums that actually have some decent songs!

    Not a big fan,but he's produced some great "Darkness". I've always referred to Glenn as - Black-magic Elvis. Probably like 50% of his catalog....which includes: DANZIG,DANZIG 2,HOW THE GODS KILL,CIRCLE OF SNAKES.

    I’d say it’s a toss up between Danzig 1 and 2 for their best album. Then How the Gods Kill followed by Danzig 4. Blackacidevil is obviously their worst. The rest of them don’t capture the magic of the first three (or four), but are not terrible either. I saw Danzig in Wiesbaden, Germany at a sold out show in 2018. They started with three of their newer songs and the crowd was not into it at all. But after that tame opening, the rest of the show was just classics from the first three albums, maybe one or two from Danzig 4 also, and the place went absolutely insane. The crowd singing along to How the Gods Kill nearly blew the roof off. Last song before the encore, Glenn said in an Elvis-like voice, «We got one more song to do. You know what it is!» It was of course Mother, and the place went even more crazy. He and the band definetly put on a great show that night. I had tickets for four Danzig shows in the summer of 2020, but unfortunately something came up and and they had to postpone them to the summer of 2021. Then something came up again and and they just cancelled the shows altogether. Now I guess he’ll never be coming back for a Europe tour again…

    I got back and forth between Lucifuge and How the Gods Kill being my number one. The debut is my number 3, and the fourth album is 4. I adore all of those albums with the original lineup. Danzig 5 was a huge disappointment. I really like good industrial metal. Danzig 5 is not good industrial metal. No one wanted a Danzig album that sounds like dollar store Nine Inch Nails. Luckily, Danzig got back on track with the next few albums.

    Always going with the first one. Got it when it first came out and it had just enough Samhain hanging over it to be the perfect transition from that (underrated in my opinion) band and the more metal leanings of Danzig. Once the lyrical terrain went to more generic "Devil-Sacrifice-666" themes, Danzig completely lost me. Misfits will always be tops for me but Samhain had a great atmospheric aura to it that's a great counter to the Misfits horror magazine blood and thunder.

    10) Blackacidevil - If Pete and Martin did an episode on "career killing albums", this would be high on my list. Breaking up the band and Rubin connection was not good and musically it felt like he was taking those first 4 records and throwing them off a cliff and going for a new sound he ill suited for. Felt like a betrayal, and thus I haven't given anything since much of a listen. If it was self-sabotage, then 100% mission accomplished! 9) (Everything else post Blackacidevil) 4) How the Gods Kill - the title track is my all-time favorite Danzig song, but side 2 is just too up and down and loses my interest at times. 3) 4p - It is kind of long but has some really good moments. Let It Be Captured is so poignant. 2) the debut - This has the bands best performance and Rubin's sparse yet charming production. Chuck's drums are superb. A flawless quick listen. It's very hard not to put it #1. End of Time is an excellent deep cut. 1) Lucifige - I love the blues so this is the album that truly hooked me. It does lose a little steam toward the end, but the first 7 tracks completely hit the mark.
