Danzig - Thrall: Demonsweatlive

a great live EP

i will never understand why all of danzigs albums dont sound like this. the sound quality is superb and if you listen to any of danzigs other recordings (dating back to the misfits and samhain) you surely know that sound quality never was a priority for him. sound quality is crisp, clear, beautiful the best ever. he was with american recordings at the time which also yeilded his best work danzig 1-4. 7 songs here all fo them great of course mother is here but i love sistinas too. dont pass this up if you love danzig songs like me.

Thrall And Demonsweatlive!!

This is a great EP. I think it's Glenn Danzig's best material including The Misfits And Samhain (they aren't at all far behind though). It captures Danzig's best songs. If you get any Danzig CD get this one. It's Going Down is a great song. It's heavier Danzig stuff. I like the shouting in the chorus. Violet Fire is great. It's dark and bluesy and just evil. The lyrics are cool. I think Trouble is an Elvis Presley cover, I'm not sure though. Danzig does have an Elvis/Jim Morrison voice. Snakes of Chirst Marks the point from Thrall to Demonsweatlive. I love it. Danzig's voice sounds great alongside metal. Am I Demon on this is killer. I wasn't too impressed by it on the first Danzig CD but this caught my ear. Danzig throws his voice and really makes a standout It's so much faster than the album version. The backing vocals are crazy. Sistanas is Danzig's ballad and damn is it a great Ballad. The instruments sound great and his voice is so dark and great. Mother doesn't sound that much better live. It's not the live version they play on the radio. I think that's on the Black hand side live. And track 90 sumthin' is the studio version of mother. Which is brilliant. This is a must have for me. I can't go too long without hearing it.

Live goodness

I remember watching Headbangers Ball one night and watching It's Coming Down world premiere. Now my friend Adam was a big Danzig fan aand so I had been played Danzig 3 many times and a few listens of the earlier Danzig material. I think I had just started listening to the Misfits then too, but I can't recall for sure.

Anyway, watched the video and thought it was a cool video and a pretty good song. Turns out they were coming to Cincy OH (1 hr from where I grew up) and Adam and I trekked to the show and had a blast. Sadly saw Danzig 9 months later opening for Metallica on the Binge & Purge tour and he was TERRIBLE!

Anyway, great tunes on this disc, especially the live material, which is the real meat of this disc anyway. You can't always count on good quality for live shows but this live stuff sounds very good with some excellent playing. The video for Mother from this album also made rather heavy rotation on MTV.
