Description: |
Misfits St. Valentine's Day Massacre 2015 Theatrical Performance at The Paramount in Huntington, Suffolk County, Long Island, New York.
In 1977, at the dawn of the punk movement the Misfits set out to make an impression, and created a legacy that has truly withstood the test of time. Immortalizing black and white B horror films in their music, the Misfits developed a ghoulish and totally unique persona that's consistently evolved, while remaining true to its roots. The band's iconic "Fiend Skull" logo has become a staple in pop culture and an instantly recognizable symbol worldwide. Bands across the spectrum of rock have covered their material, including Metallica, Guns 'n' Roses, My Chemical Romance and countless others citing the 'Fits as a key influence. Boasting a massive catalog of music, a new lineup, (consistently helmed by founding member Jerry Only) and an influence felt around the world, the Misfits are generating more interest today than ever before. With new releases charting higher than all priors, and constant worldwide touring, their diverse demographic and legion of "fiends" (as their fans are affectionately known), multiplies daily. After a split in the mid 1980's and a decade-long hiatus, The Misfits was resurrected by founding member Jerry Only, returning stronger than ever on Geffen Records and reestablishing the 'Fits as one of the most aggressive and still relevant outfits in modern rock history. Thematically, the band's music continued to focus on their time-honored fascination with vampires, monsters, and alien invasion. "We are the Misfits after all," warns Only about the band's refusal to address worldly issues, he explains, "Fiends who buy our records and come to see us perform enter another world - from the guy all the way back in the balcony, to the guy getting his head banged around in the front - they come to have a good time. And we make sure they have it. They can hear about social and political issues somewhere else." |
