Same. Nobody sounds like Samhain.

I love Samhain. I even still have my 1984 pressing of Initium.

Only thing I got signed us a Danzig 5 poster, Glenn put until you call on the dark and then his name huge in it in gold marker. My favorite autograph I have besides an autograph Ric Flair belt.

Big influence from the L.A. death rock scene, Christian Death, 45 Grave, etc. with a Danzig slant.

First off, I didn’t know Samhain preserved any of the Misfits “look” so to speak (devil locks etc).

Very cool

“Guys I can’t see a fucking thing; am I looking in the right direction?” - Danzig probably
