![]() ![]() It is too bad that the orginal members split up after this album, but then again if they would not have then there may have never been a Samhain or Danzig solo career. I may not be as masterful as Metallica's "Master of Puppets" or as fast and furious as Slayer's "Reign in Blood", but it is raw and honest and my hat goes off to the Misfits for trying something new and succeeding in doing so. I also give this album alot of credit as a speed metal album. There are plenty of classic tracks on the album, and we begin to see Danzig's shift from the Misfits to Samhain on the album. I agree that "Earth A.D." may not be the greates Misfit album of all time, but it is close. I think that it was a breath of fresh air that the Misfits changed up their musical style. Some Misfit fans found the change in style to be too much and wished it would have been more punk. The lyrics portray a much more violent reality that leaves the listener numb and wanting more. Instead of catchy tunes and B-Horror lyrics, "Earth A.D." picks up the pace and rams it in your ears at a sonic speed. On this album the Misfits embark on a new direction of horror. OUTSTANDING JOB!!! I was truly, truly, impressed! They should be proud of this release."Ĭlick here for more info on "Fiend Club Lounge"."Earth A.D./Die Die My Darling" is the last studio album the orginal Misfits did together. I compliment the engineers, the producers and everyone involved with this production. You'll think you are listening to a soundtrack from a big screen movie. It shows us how anything is possible if you want to make it happen. It takes punk music to a different level. Any true, and I mean true musician will appreciate the intricacies of the instrumentations on this CD. Original Misfits guitarist Franché Coma comments: "I will say this: 'Misfits meet the Nutley Brass: Fiend Club Lounge' is one of the best renditions of some of the best Misfits songs ever recorded. The horns seem to jet out like one of the old albums from the Tijuana Brass. ![]() Jerry Only comments on Fiend Club Lounge: "If Cat women from the moon landed in Tijuana in the 60's this is the kind of music they would march to! The Nutley Brass version of 'Die, Die My Darling' is swirling with 007 suspense like the soundtrack of an early James Bond movie. The CD comes with a limited edition drink Coaster, featuring the album cover artwork. Fiend Facts: The ultimate and most unusual of all Misfits tributes!ġ1 classic era Misfits favorites interpreted in the form of highly well-executed, instrumental, retro inspired "Space Age Pop" or "Lounge" style cover versions that will have horror-punks, lounge enthusiasts and fans of incredibly strange music going wild in the pit! ![]()
