Misfits Biography
The band the Misfits formed in New Jersey in 1977, the Misfits combined the
aggressive charge of punk rock with an outlandish sci-fi/horror-movie aesthetic.
With their signature "Fiend" skull mascot, bizarrely sculpted "devilock"
hairstyles, and songs about zombies and serial killers, the band, including
vocalist Glenn Danzig and bassist Jerry Only, revelled in their own dark
mystique and slowly gained a cult following. Danzig's Elvis Presley meets Jim
Morrison croon proved to be the band's strong asset, and the Misfits ceased to
exist when he left the band in the early '80s. While Danzig went onto to form
Samhain and his self-titled metal band, Only resurrected the Misfits name in
1996, with members of the Ramones and Black Flag eventually joining the fold.
