Biography

Lodi, New York NJ, United States (1987 – present)

Danzig is a band from the United States, formed in 1987, in Lodi, New Jersey. The band serves as a musical outlet for singer/composer Glenn Danzig, and their music fuses dark lyrics and imagery with influenced music. Danzig can be seen as the third stage in Glenn Danzig’s musical career, preceded by the band The Misfits and the band Samhain.

On July 14, 1986, Samhain performed what was to be their final show, at The Ritz in New York City. In attendance was Rick Rubin, who was scouting for potential bands to sign to his record label, Def Jam. Upon viewing Samhain’s performance, Rubin was impressed with Glenn Danzig’s powerful stage persona and vocal abilities. He approached him after the show and propositioned him. At first, he wished only to sign Danzig, with the intent of making him the vocalist for a heavy metal supergroup that Rubin envisioned. However, Danzig refused to sign to Rubin’s label without Samhain’s bassist, Eerie Von, whom Glenn had become great friends with. Rubin agreed to sign Samhain, and he began making suggestions for the new direction he felt the band should take. Rubin felt the music should be stripped down, and that Glenn’s vocal talents should become the focal point for the band.

    Seeing him and his ego live soon. Hopefully he'll play a hearfelt Mother, followed by a shirtless rendition of Mother with a crowd pleasing encore of Mother. What are his other songs again?

    The older he gets the more he looks like a long-haired John Travolta.

    Pissed because I had tickets to see Danzig Legacy last year but the show was cancelled the morning of the show and he's not touring anywhere near me this year. I'll probably never get a chance to see Danzig play Misfits songs....

    Danzig W/ Doyle is still one of the best concerts I've been to. So nice to hear those misfits songs live.

    Glenn Danzig doesn't give a shit about you or your petty opinions.
