What can i say? Been a fan of danzig's Misfits since 1981 about the same time i first got into the mighty Motorhead...another band i still love today. This is classic horror punk at it's best.

First pressing: 25 made on black vinyl. These were not test pressings, but an “emergency” pressing for an upcoming show with the Damned. Most of these copies were distributed in large, black, white, and purple Crimson Ghost envelopes with a biography and band photograph. Some black vinyl copies were later sold among collectors using sleeves from the yellow vinyl pressing or the alternate sleeve (Info from [MB]). Regular press: 2000 made, all are on gold vinyl. About 20 made with double A side labels. + insert sheet with some copies. There’s a First sleeve that has a different back cover. The black printing didn’t come out too well so Glenn Danzig did a new one. This is a real printed sleeve, no xerox or cheap “gatefold” paper. The First sleeve was never sold with a record inside, although some are sold now together with a record (to make it even more expensive…). Around 100 copies of this sleeve have survived, most of the 2000 batch were destroyed, Bobby Steele and Barry Henssler kept about 15-20 each. Also, the story on the insert (about the abandoned house) is not true. Bootlegs: #1 red vinyl. #2 black vinyl with repro insert.
