The peak of Glenn Danzig!
This album has a great variety of styles from blues to metal to rock. This album is a monster! When this first came out back in 1990 I was surprised with how different it was from the first album. The album kicks off with one of my favorite Danzig songs ever, "Long Way Back From Hell" which is moody and fast. Glenn's vocals are at a peak on this album. He really hits some killer high screams like in "Girl" and can sing softly like in "Devil's Plaything" which are both amazing songs. Glenn's first all out blues song "Killer Wolf" reminds me of Howlin' Wolf meets classic Elvis. They lyrics continue in the satanic vein which I think ads to the "danger" of Danzig's music. The production is much different on this album than the self titled. While the album is clear, it is not as "dry" sounding as the first album. If you are new to Danzig, this is a great place to start with a great variety. You will never get bored here. I highly recommend this one!!.


Danzig II .Bad A** Music.
. Of course I don't like the cover(I am Catholic)but the riffs is heavy, And I am not a Fan of Dark Music except Danzig's work(not all of it) Songs Like Long way back, Im the One, Im the wolf, Pretty good stuff.


Danzig Metal II
Awesome album yet again for awesome kick butt metal artist Danzig!

Danzig kicks A$$.


Danzig on the Bayou

It sounds as if it were recorded on a humid Summer night somewhere in the country. There's something extra dark and extra special on this one.
There's a dirty and deep feel that goes beyond the dry AC/DC sounds of Danzig I. Something about it also rings fresher than the studio sound of Danzig III.
Slide guitar, stripped down blues meanderings. . .
A moderate amount of experimentation can be heard as well. . .
"Blood and Tears" marks Glenn's first true attempt at a ballad, and the refrain of "Tired of being alive" initiates an ethos unseen to this point; almost the antithesis of the invincible swagger of "Mother. " Pain, alienation and warning are the themes.

This may well be the quintessential Danzig release.
A dark and melancholy preview of things to come.

Danzig 2:Electric Boogaloo (Sorry, force of habit)
This is made much more apparent on his third album "How the Gods Kill". Danzig 2 stands out as being the first album where Gleen started to drift toward blues influences in his music. This is a very good album, while not as good as the first Danzig album, is in my opinion better than the third. With tracks like Killer Wolf, 777, and the melodic Devil's Plaything, one can not go wrong with purchasing this album, esspecially if one is a fan of Danzig.
