Music reviews of The Misfits Box Set

Music Review: Let Me Tell You Why You Can't Go Wrong...
Rating: 4 Stars

For $62, this boxed set is really expensive. And, as other reviewers alluded to here, from an organizational or completist's standpoint, its a total mess.

Rather than appearing in chronological sequence of recording or release date, tracks and discs are packaged with no apparent rhyme or reason. What we get, in no particular order, are the studio "proper" CD release versions of Collections 1 and 2, Legacy of Brutality, Earth A.D., EvilLive, Static Age, and a "Sessions" disc.

Yet even these are incomplete. For example, Collections 1 and 2 are missing all the Earth A.D. songs - presumably to avoid duplication - so they are not the actual Collections 1 or 2 releases. But the "Sessions" disc DOES contain some duplicate tracks that appear on other discs, like the "Legacy of Brutality" version of "Where Eagles Dare" and "Collections" version of "Hollywood Babylon." The album, "Walk Among Us" isn't even in the box set and the "Static Age" album is missing the track, "In the Doorway," which can only be found on the "Static Age" album released separately after the boxed set.

As I discovered, some of the tracks on "Collection II," like "Mephisto Waltz" are not even Misfits tracks, but were recorded new, by Glen Danzig and Eerie Von, years after the Misfits broke up, technically making them Samhain tracks. We also know, there's some great released material that only appeared on vinyl and previously-unreleased studio stuff that was also left off the boxed set, like the alternate version of "London Dungeon," which would've appeared on the aborted "12 Hits From Hell" album. Or the original version of "Archangel" - a Misfits track Glenn wrote for Dave Vanian of the Damned, that was later finished off in the studio as a Samhain track. Also, no version of "Who Killed Marilyn"/"Spook City U.S.A." that was released as a Glenn Danzig 45". What we do get is the previously UNreleased version of "Who Killed Marilyn," that appeared on "Legacy of Brutality" and then appears AGAIN in the boxed set on the "Sessions" disc. Another duplicate. Ugh.

The liner notes are terribly inaccurate, so don't rely on them. For the completist, to supplement actual recording and release dates and make sense of it all, you'll need to consult Mark Kennedy's awesome website, MisfitsCentral.com.

Ok, so this boxed set is a huge disappointment. Mostly from the perspective of what it COULD'VE been. The collecting culture and obscurity that surrounds the Misfits discography is what gives it its mystique and makes us Fiends...

Having said that, where else are you going to get this much music of the Misfits in CD audio quality for the money? The answer is, nowhere! While not near "complete," its a lot. Hey, until Collections II came out, the only version I had of "Last Caress" was a crackling, skipping vinyl BOOTLEG of "Beware!"

This is the REAL misfits - the legendary Glenn Danzig-era group - not that ridiculous band that Jerry Only is going around making a fool of himself with. High quality songwriting, unique, unparalleled energy and originality, its some of the best punk rock, if not rock and roll ever recorded. Its influence and cult only continue to grow.

If the price tag puts you off, purchase it new or used from a seller, right here on Amazon and save some bucks. But no REAL Misfits fan has an excuse not to own this set.
