Music reviews of Collection 2
Music Review: "This day anything goes. Burning bodies hanging from poles. I remember Halloween."
Rating: 5 Stars
The first Misfits collection brought together many of the most memorable and catchy tunes from the all-time great horror-punk band's career. But that is far from being all the Misfits you need. So by popular demand: 20 more sonically gore-tastic howlers from Danzig and the boys to put you in the mood for evil. This second best-of collection features songs that have been covered by the likes of Metallica, Guns 'n Roses, and AFI, and one that was appropriately featured in Rob Zombie's remake of Halloween. So consider this CD every bit as vital as the first if you're a newcomer to the punk rock art form. And if you aren't: shouldn't you already have this?
"I got something to say
I killed your baby today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as it's dead
Well I got something to say
I raped your mother today
And it doesn't matter much to me
As long as she spread
Sweet lovely death
I am waiting for your breath
Come sweet death, one last caress"
Charming, no? The really sinister thing about The Misfits is you'll be singing along with this sort of stuff, even if you really like babies and your mother. The buzzsawing guitar, Glenn Danzig's Evil Elvis delivery, the rockin' beats; this band is hard to resist for fans of aggressive music. And if you love horror too then forget about it. What other band before these guys would not only write a song about Return of the Fly (1959), but add "with Vincent Price" to the chorus just in case you didn't know they were singing about that exact movie? Or how about an ode to The Return of the Living Dead, "Braineaters" ("Brains for dinner, brains for lunch, brains for breakfast,
brains for brunch, brains at every single meal why can't we have some guts?")? Masterful. Other standout tracks include the downright mean "Attitude", the youth rebellion anthem "Children in Heat", "Hatebreeders", and of course "Halloween".
The sound overall is a bit heavier than the first Misfits Collection so newbies may want to try the first disc on for size first, but the song quality is certainly comparable so don't be afraid of picking this one up if you're a fan of hardcore punk. There are a couple of unreleased tracks on here that are not true Misfits recordings ("Halloween II", for one), but they are pretty moody and cool so I'll take them anyways. This disc has been my personal Halloween tradition for the better part of a decade now and I don't see that changing anytime soon. This is another perfect album to set the mood for a horrorfest at any time of year.
