Craziest post you've made on this board. Samhain were awesome and the first four Zig LPs are great too.

Except he played guitar in the studio on plenty of Misfits records.

I really don't get the negative attitude towards Samhain. I think if those records had the Misfits name on them, some of you would be singing a different tune.

Those things are few and far between. Initium came out when I was 12 and still very much in a "HARDCORE ONLY" headspace and I took very little to no notice of chimes or keyboards. IIRC, they only pop up briefly on 1 or 2 songs.

Danzig did add guitar to pretty much all of the Misfits records. I've seen him claim it in interviews and I heard Lyle Preslar discuss it on a podcast where he talked about what he and Caroline Records went through when Caroline bought the Misfits catalog (Lyle echos Danzig's statements about how Glenn added all his own guitar playing to the other guitar players' tracks; in his opinion, Glenn's guitar playing was awful but Doyle was worse).
I love Samhain, except for maybe the Final Descent record. I think a lot of the hate has to do with the production, which is an acquired taste (especially with the first album). Production aside, those records that Samhain did are loaded with great songs. It's too bad that Glenn took them out of print.
The first 3 Danzig albums are great. I checked out when the 4th one came out but I came back to it a few years ago and it has it's moments. The last Danzig album was actually pretty good. It was more of a throw back to the old Danzig sound instead of the psuedo-industrial junk that he had been doing in the late '90s.

All Samhain is good. The first 2 or 3 Danzig records are decent too.

if I had to rank 'em
1."Lucifuge" (II)
2."How The Gods Kill" (III)
3. DANZIG VI
4. DANZIG I
after the MISFITS ceased operations, SAMHAIN was tough to get into, but after a while, it clicked with me. I love all 3 releases. have to admit I'd rather listen to DANZIG more, but I dug the change of pace with SAMHAIN.

Rick Rubin seemed hell bent on turning rock bands he produced into ACDC at that time...
