The Misfits - Box Set







Released in 1996 in a special coffin shaped box, this contained almost everything the band had recorded, from 1977 to 1983, the only exception being the album Walk Among Us because Caroline Records failed to secure its distribution rights. Disc 1 is the self-titled Misfits album (referred to here as Collection I) and Collection II. Disc 2 is the Legacy of Brutality, Evilive, and Earth A.D./Wolfs blood albums. Disc 3 is various singles and studio recordings. Disc 4 is the unreleased Static Age album which was recorded in 1978 but never released in its entirety before this box set. Essential for any fan of The Misfits, or punk music in general.

The Misfits - Twelve Hits From Hell




This Misfits album was recorded in 1980 and never released. The lineup here included Bobby Steele (The Undead) on Guitar and Arthur Googy (Antidote) on drums. Caroline Records had planned on releasing this in 2001, they even sent copies out to the press, but both Jerry Only and Glenn Danzig had the album pulled from the release schedule and deleted. All the songs saw the light of day on various Misfits EP's and LP's, so nothing really new here, just a cool unreleased album.
