Danzig - Deth Red Sabaoth

Finally got ahold of the new Danzig CD and let me say, this thing rocks! Gone are Danzig's flirtations with industrial music, instead we have 11 tracks of metal mayhem. This CD seems to groove more than some of Danzig's later releases - the songs are a bit more up tempo and overall it seems to have a brighter tone.

One thing about Danzig albums, they bring out the haters. Just take a look around the net and it won't take you long to find folks slamming Glenn. Granted, his solo stuff is a sharp departure from the great Misfits material, and even the Samhain stuff, too. But I think Glenn is being true to himself as an artist, and I can't fault the guy for that.

Listen - this ain't the Misfits. If you're looking for that then Deth Red Sabaoth isn't for you. If, instead, you're open to hearing the best Danzig album in years, then give Deth Red a listen. I think you'll be quite pleasantly surprised.
