558.0. "Misfits" by FASDER::AHERB () Sat Apr 27 1991 02:42

    It seems that you people have not mentioned Misfits in here yet.. Most
    people listen to it and laugh and hate it.. So did I when I first heard
    them but I was borrowing the tape and had nothing else to listen to and
    after awhile I liked it alot.. 
     
    Any other Misfit fans? Its about the only babd my band can play

    It`s the only babd my band can play? Pardon?
    
    I like the Misfits,got a couple of albums and an early demo tape. Best
    thing about it is the vocals and lyrics. 
    
    It made me laugh though that in this country,(England),they only got
    popular after James Hetfield,Cliff Burton et al started wearing the
    t-shirts. It was the same with Faith No More.

    	I thought they were popular from very early on...

    The Misfits were known in the UK from very early on - but, even now, I
    wouldn't call them popular.
    
    As for FNM, they only became popular when  Mike Patton joined the
    group and other bands talked highly of them...but that was still a long
    time before they made it big in the USA.

558.4Danzig,Samhain and MisfitsCOMET::JENSENTFri Jul 31 1992 02:3810
       There are some real cool songs on SAMHAIN'S FINAL DESCENT cd. Glenn
    Danzig's art work on the MISFIT evil skull is excellent and PUSHEAD'S
    art work on Misfits album covers and T shirts is un-equalled by anyone
    except for maybe Derek Riggs who draws the Iron Maiden art work.
    
    
       Not necessarily the biggest Misfits fan in the world.
