About:
From the time of their first gig in 1977, the MISFITS and their iconic imagery went on to become one of the most crucially influential, genre-defying bands to ever emerge from North America deconstructing and redefining rock music. Immortalizing B horror films in their music, they developed a ghoulishly unique persona and rebellion all their own.
After a split with original singer Glenn Danzig in the mid 1980s, The Misfits were resurrected in the 1990s by co-founder Jerry Only, (the only consistent member since the band's inception in 1977 to present), helming on Bass & Vocals over the course of the decades that followed.
2016 brought The ORIGINAL MISFITS triumphant return, reuniting Original Singer/Songwriter GLENN DANZIG and Original Bassist JERRY ONLY for the first time in over 30 years. Joined by long-time guitarist Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein, the Original Misfits have played sold out arenas and stadiums and in 2019, took the crown as the only first wave punk band to ever headline the world's most famous arena, Madison Square Garden—in a SOLD OUT performance no less.
The MISFITS with Danzig's anthemic songs and unmistakable voice, Only's ferocious bass sound, and the band's melody-induced choruses and authentically bruising musicianship, cemented their importance with all ensuing generations. And now legions of diehard fans from around the world have the opportunity to hear the Original Band that forges a level of intensity unprecedented in the new millennium.
