Formed in Lodi, New Jersey back in 1977, The Misfits are considered the progenitors of the Horror Punk subgenre, adding horror film references on their lyrics and image. In the early 80s the band released classic albums like “Walk Among Us” (1982) and “Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood (1983), which featured famous tracks like “Night of the Living Dead”, “Astro Zombies” and “Die, Die My Darling”.
In late 90s they released two successful studio albums without Glenn Danzig on vocals. “American Psycho” (1997) and “Famous Monsters” (1999) had the two classic members Jerry Only and Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein, the new singer Michale Graves and the drummer Dr. Chud. Those records had famous tracks like “Dig Up Her Bones”, “Scream”, “Helena” and “Dust To Dust”.
