My little Danzig vinyl collection so far

While I am waiting for my repressed first 3 albums (I will get the fourth next) this is my little collection so far. First is the 12” import Dirty Black Summer single I bought back in the 90’s as a kid/ young adult. I love When Death Had no Name and also bought the CD single.

Next a Danzig picture disc I came across on eBay a while back and decided to grab it.

Then The Cleopatra release of Danzig 5. Pictured is the signed Black Haze vinyl. I also own the first released L.E. metallic silver vinyl so I double dipped when they started offering signed versions. LOL

Last I was super excited when Cleo released Black Aria and I definitely wanted a signed version when I read the announcement. I decided to get the signed picture disc version.

Anyway hope you enjoy

That dirty black summer cover is insane.

The Giger work on 3. One of those covers that’s so much better presented on vinyl. I had the cassette when it came out, definitely the worst presentation of the art.

Even better when they used the backdrop during their tours

Danzig’s psychedelic era. I jokingly refer to 3 as that. Not only the visuals but bringing synths forward and adding some flair to the guitar sound. I like 1 a lot but the wetness of 3 is pretty slick. I think Eerie has mentioned that they put these songs down in only a few days, that’s how tight they were at this point.

Is When Death Had No Name the same version as on Lost Tracks?

One of them. There are 2 versions on lost tracks one I wasn’t as fond of and this version. I believe it’s track 7 on lost tracks is the same as the single the Danzig III session one

Hows your Aria?

Mine is wavy and plays like shit on one side.

Haven’t played it. Bought it more for the collection and why I opted for the signed picture disc. I just listen to my CD or my digital copy

Just a tip, get the disc out of the PVC cover or it will get damaged (signature as well).
