    Misfits are one of those bands that sort of fell through the cracks back in the day and I’ve been meaning to really properly go through them so this video is a good starting point. I have some Danzig albums but like you i was not really into pink back then although post-punk I loved. So this gives me good homework. Speaking of not knowing about bands etc back then and pre internet days, the first time I ever actually saw Metallica move, and I was a big fan from the start, was the release of the One music video, a good 7 years after I got into them with Kill em All. Cool video Aaron

And solely because I realized I had never owned a J. Geils record or actually listened to one all the way through.

    I started with Legacy of Brutality too :) And yeah, I have the same issue with the Ramones in general. People hyped them to me as the fastest band ever, but I had already heard Slayer, Whiplash, etc before hearing the Ramones. So when I finally checked 'em out i was like, "this is alright but it's not really that fast; what's the big deal?".
    Misfits lyrics were IMPOSSIBLE to understand before the Internet ruined the mystery :-)
    Agreed on WITCH! I think the price has come down since the reissue...and since folks finally got to hear what it sounds like.

    • @MetalTheologian
      @MetalTheologian  Před 4 lety

      I can barely understand Misfits lyrics when I'm sitting there, reading along in the lyric sheet! Regarding the Ramones, the speed itself was never the selling point when people were hyping them (all my friends had spent way too much time listening to Dead Kennedys) so much as the sheer simplicity of the songwriting. And I gotta say, when a band I was in was gonna do Sheena is a Punk Rocker, I literally put the needle down on the record, picked up the bass, and by the time the song was 2/3 over, I had figured out the whole thing, so fair enough. (Because believe me, that was not on account of my incredible musicianship.) But Angelfuck is just as easy, and it's a much better song!

    alright, now onto the Records!. While I don't own the Witch (I do want to own it after I tell this, cos it makes more sense on why I want to). Story time. back when I joined the Heavy Metal Rarities the Founder of the forum (who is also the founder of the Rare & Obscure Metal channel) would brag about of how he owns that Witch record and (given this is a Downloading forum) he at wasn't going to upload the album to the site for anybody to download (could never figure why he was so reluctant to even upload it, it wasn't going to see a reissue yet) and members would ask him, but he wouldn't, unless you did something, I mean for a record that cost's just as much as your car payment, it really added to the curiosity, so pretty much all of us who had never heard this record, who seen scans of the covers are lead to believe that this might be the holy grail of Heavy Metal records, eventually the Founder cheered up and around Christmas time he was jolly enough to finally upload his rip to the forum to for us to finally hear (though it was only going to be up for a limited amount of time, lol) so when he did I finally got around to check it out and was it the Holy Grail of Heavy Metal records?...nope, all that fucking suspense and that is what it sounded like!, it was a tease at the time but now since it's been Reissued and is not being sold at such a dumb amount of dough, I can now add some piece of my past to the collection.
    It's actually been years since I've listened to The Misfits, I got into 'em after I got into Danzig's solo stuff, same goes for Samhain as well. one of the few Punk bands I like. very cool to see your collection.

    Legacy rules, but I got oversaturated by it early on. Same with the first Collection comp LP... when Collection 2 came out it blew my mind. I think Static Age is underrated as far as their LP's go, but Earth AD is their pinnacle for me. My Aggressive Rockproduktionen press of Earth AD is one of my prized LP's, really need the matching press of Evilive. I have an early Ruby press of Walk Among Us, as well and that's probably my next favorite. The 1980 MSP Sessions is also pretty fucking great.
