Even though it might be cliche, die die my darling is one hell of a song.

No Skulls?! No She?! No In The Doorway?! And no love for my ABSOLUTE favorite track of all time - London Dungeon?!

I think that Some Kind Of Hate is one of there best

Hybrid Moments sounds like a 60's pop song from Hell. The chords and vocals are just super brilliant. I also like All Hell Breaks Loose a lot.

Die my darling should be on that list! Beep beep beep beep beep beep

1.) last caress 2.) astro zombies 3.) skulls 4.) some kinda hate 5.) die, die my darling 6.) halloween 7.) horror business 8.) bullet 9.) hybrid moments 10.) mommy can i go out and kill tonight?! but let's face it, every song they recorded with glenn danzig was fucking great, literally every song was cool!

he seems so much more excited in this video than he does in all his newer ones

to me the misfits were essential to music in general, not just the punk scene

Mommy can I go out and kill tonight!?, mom: don't forget your lunch

Theres one thing i hate about Misfits, and its not even their fault. (Nirvana has this problem too) People wear their shirts cause they think the design looks cool. Like, thats ok and all, but when someone asks them what their favorite song by them is, instead of saying "oh, i just thought the shirt looked cool, i did t know it was a band shirt" (which would be respectable) they make shit up. Fucking hate it. Thats the only thing i hate about them though. Love them otherwise.

I really liked both Danzig's and Graves' work for Misfits. Everyone is talking about the Danzig days but Graves was just as good in my opinion. Dig Up Her Bones, American Psycho, Helena, Dust to Dust, 1000000 Years BC, Mars Attacks, and The Haunting are some of my favorites ALONG with the Danzig work as well (pretty much tracks everyone has already listed XD)

0:52 I forgive you =)

I can't believe no one is mentioning HORROR HOTEL! "say, somethin, say somethin... you wanna start somethin with me here at horror hotel!"

I'm a big Danzig-era misfits fan, but I really think American Psycho and Famous Monsters are worth checking out. Songs like The Haunting, The Shining and Dust to Dust are for me Misfits essentials.

Good list...I was pleasantly shocked when you said hybrid moments was your fave. My 10 favorites list, in no particular order: 1. Spinal Remains 2. Hybrid Moments 3. Last caress 4. Teenagers from Mars 5. Who Killed Marilyn? 6. Attitude 7. Bullet 8. Horror Business 9. Where Eagles Dare 10. She Honorable: We are 138, Static Age, T.V. Casualty

my favorite misfits songs: 1.Dig up Her Bones 2.Last Caress 3.Die Die my Darling 4.Hybrid moments 5.Lost in Space

In no particular order, I would have to put Last Caress Some Kinda Hate Hybrid Moments Astro Zombies I Turned Into A Martian Die Die My Darling Devil's Whorehouse Bloodfeast Skulls Horror Business But literally any Danzig-era song I love. Grave's songs are alright too, but I don't love every song. And as for Jerry's stuff, The Black Hole is probably the only good song off the album, and it's one of the shortest.

I am a hardcore fan of the misfits and I love the fact that you referred to the original misfits.. one of my favorite songs is come back, but I just can't decide an overall favorite song!

Good choices dude. :) I heard the Misfits for the first time at a friend's house in 1991. I was 17. I didn't know shit about punk even though I had been a guitar player for 5 years. My friend's parents owned The Record Vault in San Francisco in the 70's and 80's. He had pictures of Iron Maiden and Mercyful Fate as a group holding him over their heads when he was around 9 years old. His parents met EVERYBODY that came through S.F. on tour. They had/have EVERYTHING vinyl you can think of that is cool...including a bunch of 33 and 45RPM records from some band called "The Misfits". I asked my friend if they were "any good". He laughed and turned on "We Are 138". I don't need to explain that I fell in forever with that band since. This was before the box set that came out in 96' or so. I felt like I got to be a part of the very small group that got to experience them from the beginning. Back then their first single (Cough Cool/She - Danzig on keys - no guitar) was selling IF YOU COULD FIND IT for $400. I got a 4th generation mix tape that Glenn made for James (Hetfield), that James copied for my friend's parents, that his parents copied for my friend, and that I copied from him. I played that shit for friends and made them copies all over where I lived. It is *incredibly* *special* music. I think I cannot pick any list of favourites. We Are 138 is at the top of the list if there is one though but almost ALL of their music (different takes/live etc) ALL makes me go crazy in a way very few things can in this life. As a singer I find The Misfits are as fun to sing as Ray Charles/Priest/Sabbath/Elvis. I'll just say what songs I don't like: 1,000,000 BC - only on Cuts From the Crypt and something they (wisely) decided to leave on the cutting room floor. Haloween II - As much as I savagely love Mommy Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight (THE IMPLICATION OF THE WORDS is indeed insightful to a certain human psyche but very fucking disturbing given all of the shootings we keep hearing about eh?), this song is too fucking creepy to me because it is in Latin. I always skip it. It's not like I am bothered or concerned about a ritual to turn someone into a werewolf - as that is what this song is about ...and that's pretty much fucking it. I just listened to the 2 albums they did with Michale Graves. I fucking love those albums as well. Of course it took me so long to listen because I was one of those "there is NO WAY it will be good without Danzig". Bullshit. It's great. It is *different* obviously because GLENN and JERRY (not Ben and...oh fuck off lol) were one thing and the later version was another. Anyway, definitely one of my favourite bands for every reason one could love a band...except for technical prowess. Clearly that isn't everything if it makes your heart beat and your body move. I think Frank Zappa may have dismissed them as shit given his general attitude about *punk* but may have liked these guys because they were so fucking ugly and beautiful at the same time. CHEERS!

My top 10 even though no one asked for it would be as follows: 10-She 9-Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight? 8-Bloodfeast 7-Hybrid Moments 6-20 Eyes 5-Horror Business 4-We Are 138 3-London Dungeon 2-Last Caress 1-Death Comes Ripping

Do you even like the Graves era? I mean, to each his own, but American Psycho and Famous Monster contain fantastic songs as well...

Metallica made Last Caress & Green Hell Popular. Back in the 80s only die hard Misfits fans even had Last Caress. Back then it was only available on 7" or maybe someone made ya a copy on cassette. The first time you could officially get it was on Collection 2 in the mid 90s and than Static Age. Back in the days i used to have a cassette copy of Beware and some other 7" singles from my uncle.

I love the songs “I Turned Into A Martian” and “Astro Zombies”

Michale Graves + Danzig = Both amazing 1. Last Caress 2. Resurrection 3. Dig Up Her Bones 4. Hybrid Moments 5. Fiend Club

Your list mirrors mine almost completely! Hybrid Moments is my absolute favorite song of theirs, I can't help but sing along whenever I hear it.

1.Horror Business 2.Hollywood Babylon 3.Teenagers from Mars 4.I Turned into a Martian 5.All Hell 6.Eagles 7.Death Comes Ripping 8.Astro Zombies 9.London Dungeon 10.Earth AD

I rarely hear any love for theme for a jackal that song is one of my favorites

The first Misfits song I really liked was Teenagers From Mars. My older brother has Static Age on cd and I listened to it a lot. As for a list, not in particular order, cause that may vary: Where Eagles Dare London Dungeon Hybrid Moments Attitude Last Caress Who Killed Marylin Horror Business Teenagers From Mars Hatebreeders Skulls Bullet And so on... I pretty much like everything with Danzig on vocals.

No love for Famous Monsters? )=

Jerry Only = Gene Simmons of Punk.

I was getting goosebumps when you said one of the shortest Misfits song is my all time favorite and then it wasn't SHE. Hybrid Moments is a great song, but damn...we could have had that "moment."

Don't you mean "devil sock"?

i was stoked to here you say hybrid moments was you're favorite , it was always mine aswelll great list .

1 Hybrid Moments 2 Horror Business 3 Where Eagles Dare 4 Teenagers From Mars 5 Nike A-Go-Go 6 We Are 138 7 Die, Die My Darling 8 Hate Breeders 9 Children In Heat 10 Skulls

SKULLS SKULLS SKULLS SKULLS SKULLS SKULLS

Hybrid Moments is also my favorite Misfits song. And like you Anthony, I don't know exactly why. It's so short and pretty simple when it comes to instrumentation. But what makes the song is the message. I think that everyone who loves that song loves it because it expresses something that they were feeling in a very down time in their life. Not to say that this is your reasoning for loving it, but for some reason, it speaks to you when you are feeling depressed.

This is awesome. When you said that you didnt like any of the new Misfits songs, i hit subscribe. xD

really classy and well put thanx

My favorite misfits songs are probably 10. American Psycho 9. Saturday Night 8. Die Die My Darling 7. Where The Eagles Dare 6. Scream 5. Last Caress 4. Skulls 3. Helena 2. Hybrid Moments 1. Dig Up Her Bones

I agree on Hybrid Moments being number one. Such a great tune. In fact, most of Static Age is pure gold.

As you finished, your top five are exactly my top five, crazy. Hybrid Moments is too good.

I'm so glad you put american nightmare. It's one of my top favorites.

10. Bloodfeast 9. Hollywood Babylon 8. TV Casualty 7. Teenagers From Mars 6. Horror Business 5. She 4. Astro Zombies 3. Bullet 2. Skulls 1. I Turned into a Martian.

As a new Misfits fan my favourites in no particular order so far would have to be 1. Bruiser 2. Hybrid moments 3. Scream 4. Astro Zombies 5. Hunting humans 6. Mommy can I go out and kill tonight 7. Saturday night 8. Don't open till doomsday 9. We are 138 10. Ghoul's night out 11. Last caress

Good call. I never knew the title of Hybrid Moments but I would always sing along with it and just mumble some nonsense. Then I looked up the lyrics. Now it’s one of my faves as well. For all their hardcore aesthetics the band knew how to write a catchy hook like no other and Danzig was as much of a crooner than a punk. One track I also love that you didn’t mention is London Dungeon. Something about that opening riff just sounds sour and menacing, and the hook is one of their best. Thanks for the great content as always! 😎

Happy October 2017, Anthony! Thank you for this great review :)

No love for "Return of the Fly"? Wooohooo

Some Kinda Hate is def one of my favorites.

omg i was hoping soooo much that you would put hybrid moments there and it wound up as number 1 :D

Completely agree regarding hybrid moments! amazing!

At 0:13 you should have said "do you like my devilsock?" Puns will last forever.

Saturday night

Great list love all of these

I agree with this list 100%, it was mind boggling to see how similar our views on The Misfits are. I was actually getting worried you wouldn't mention Hybrid Moments.

Hybrid moment is their best track. That is all.

My Top Ten Favorite Misfits Songs: 1. Where Eagles Dare 2. Die, Die My Darling 3. Astro Zombies 4. Horror Business 5. Last Caress 6. Some Kinda Hate 7. Attitude 8. Halloween 9. Braineaters 10. Ghouls Night Out this list was a bitch to make cause I had to leave out Skulls, Scream, Hate Breeders, Wolfsblood, Bullet, Angelfuck, Dig Up Her Bones, and a few others I'd consider to be my favorites, and to answer your question about The Devil's Rain Album, I only like two songs off that album, The Devils Rain, and Jack The Ripper.

Agreed, hybrid moments is my favorite too and I would agree with most of the rest of the list AND your comments about the new stuff. After watching quite a few of your videos I was wondering what you grew up on as a kid. Did you parents/family or friends invite you to listen to certain kinds of music (I would assume so) and what genres were they? What were some of the first bands you were "into". I have other questions but this is most interesting to me because I have quite a few music-head friends and none of them listen to as wide an array of genres as you. I mean I don't think I know anyone that likes black metal, pop, indie AND hip hop... how did you become.. YOU?!?

bro i just saw the misfits last night VIP front and center at a stadium for their second LA reunion show since 1983...legendaryyyyyyyyy

You should do another top ten but with Graves era stuff.

Graves era is extremely underrated, he is an amazing frontman.

So, I'm more of a metalhead but recently joined a local punk band and The Misfits definitely inspired the riffs and lyrics I write as well as my vocals. I love the screamy belting vocals used in a lot of songs and the grimey crunchy tone of the guitars is just beautiful! I'm glad I started playing punk rock so I was actually able to find this kickass band!

Solid list. Glad you kept it real with Danzig era Misfits

Devilsock

1. where eagles dare 2. last caress 3. hatebreeders 4. them 5. die monster die 6. bullet 7. horror business 8. astro zombies 9. 20 eyes 10. forbidden zone

you pretty much nailed it. I agree with the list for the most part. I agree hybrid moments is a gem that goes under appreciated, I think Saturday night should hang around the 9th spot because it's so odd, it's a slow sad song by the misfits and it works for no reason.

I agree with your list. Misfits open eye to punk rock. A band I can relate to because I grew watch horror as a kid. Thank you misfits for opening my eyes

Die, Die My Darling as honorable mention

Hybrid Moments easily the best, such an awesome song.

Dude I worship you for wearing a Misfits shirt and actually knowing wtf it is! You rock!

I was SO relieved and excited that [SPOILER!] your #1 was Hybrid moments. Great list!

Am I the only person that thinks Cough/Cool is a phenomenal song? It sets such a haunting tone and though it doesn't sound like much of the rest of the Danzig era catalog, I think it sets the stage for what they became known for.

Gotta agree about Hybrid Moments

Hybrid Moments is what introduced me to the Misfits, it was featured on the first Jackass movie and it stuck out for me so I looked into the band and am very grateful I did.

Damn good list! Been listening to the misfits for about 20 years and the tracks never lose it!

you need to go back to doing lists like these fandango! that would be sick!

forbiden zone ?

I love seeing fellow Danzig purists! Killer list, man! I probably would have picked most of the same songs. :-) Hollywood Babylon or Bullet would probably be my #1.

Shit 8 years ago. Finding this drunk and looking for top 10 misfits songs, this was the first video. GOD DAMN

Good list.. Hate Breeders... surprised not to see Hollywood Babylon. All Hell Breaks Loose.. God Damn it.,.

1st. Skulls

Delightfully surprised Melon loves hybrid moments like I do, its short but its the perfect track to introduce somebody to the Misfits, really shows off the slight tang of 50s rock that eddied around in their boiling ocean of punk rock, definitely digging out my misfits albums and giving them a spin after all these years

hybrid moments is probably my number 1 too, it's just killer! i also really love angelfuck, astro zombies, and where eagles dare.

Do a top ten Samhain

why nobody mentions angelfuck is beyond me

The drums on Static Age, no one else would dare to release something like that today.

Solid List. Hybrid is definitely top 5 for me. 20 Eyes, and Vampira are some of my favorites.

Top Ten 'Fits songs (Danzig era): Honorable Mention: All Hell Breaks Loose 10. Vampira 9. Theme For A Jackal 8. Skulls 7. Halloween II 6. Bloodfeast 5. Wolfs Blood 4. Angelfuck 3. Ghouls Night Out 2. Spook City USA (Misfits Box-set) 1. In The Doorway Top Ten 'Fits songs (Graves era): Honorable Mention: Saturday Night 10. Descending Angel 9. Crimson Ghost 8. Don't Open 'Til Doomsday 7. Pumpkin Head 6. Fiend Without A Face 5. Mars Attacks 4. Dead Kings Rise 3. No More Moments 2. Dig Up Her Bones 1. Scream! Hey Anthony how about Top Ten Samhain songs?

Whatabout some kinda hate and angelfuck

im so glad you said hybrid moments thats my number 1

Hybrid Moments is my favorite too. Great list.

Allow me to attract the hate of everyone by saying that Michale Graves, Danzig, and Jerry Only are all pretty good. And it was a mixture of all their personalities that led to the breakup. Jerry and Danzig are both super controlling assholes who are hard to work with, and Graves was allegedly pretty disrespectful. But, fuck, when Graves and Danzig were singing, the band was at its best.

Dude.. Where is Cough/Cool and She, and Helena, and London Dungeon?!

Whoa 12 years? You're old-skool Anthony 🤘

Hybrid moments, the chord change when danzig sings "oh baby when you cry" fuuuuuucckkk thats so good
