4.0 out of 5 stars Boxset/Video details/query and misc facts, Jun 29 2004

This review is from: Box Set (Audio CD)

I won't bother repeating what others said. Some details:
1) Unholy Passion: re-recorded version is included here, from what I hear. NOT the orig lp/CD version incl on Initium
2) Video: 42min, 2 shows, amateur, dates: unlisted, show 1 (bad sound): all blood guts fun/???/unholy passion/???/???/horror biz/moribund. show 2 (not as bad sound): all hell/london dungeon/archangel/mother of mercy/to walk the night/???/moribund/black dream.
3) Initial versions: incl Scarecrow pin, I hear. Later units do not.
4) Comic: pretty cheap, collectors only
5) Booklet: 4.25 x 10", color, missing discog & lyrics to UP & FD, sparse on insight and notes. Good quality booklet otherwise.
6) Live CD: not a double CD but 2 shows on 1 CD, not bad quality & tracklist. This should be the exact same as was later available seperately. Dates: 1985, Danceteria, NYC/1986, Metro, Chicago. Exact dates of shows: unlisted, my 7" bootleg claims the 1986 show was in April sometime. These 2 live shows are NOT the same as on the VHS.
7) NCF: tracks 4 & 5 are reversed on jacket (to walk the night <-->birthright) on both the boxset & CD version still!

Corrections welcome! Please include full video tracklist. I'm not a big enough fan to know it all (VHS tracklist is unincluded on jacket). Like it or not, it don't matter cuz this boxset is OOP now, as are all the individual CDs since Danzig had a rumored split with eMagine. You'll have better luck finding the boxset than the seperate CDs now. If u wanna hear Samhain cover some Misfits songs, buy this boxset.

This review is from: Box Set (Audio CD)

All together this is a great box set the video is great and so is the booklet also it comes with a cool comic. the only complaint i have is the lack of unreleased tracks such as the archangle with chimes an alternate versions of novembers fire, halloween 2 and some other later tracks. also the liner notes are great but i would like to see some notes from eerie von since he was there from start to finish.

4.0 out of 5 stars better then the original lp's and cd's, Jan 15 2004

BigLibertarian "hello" (usa) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Box Set (Audio CD)

firstly i did not buy this to get the stuff it was a neat read looked cute but the video was a perk..
i wanted to replace the sets (many were bootlegs and copies of bootlegs) i lost (or got stolen) long ago, finally i can hear and understand the music.
this set is simply great just for listening !!
people can say what they want about danzig the man or his choices in life but still in the 80's it was a unique move.

when i really i got in to the misfits and samhain it was a holiday for me to sit in my dank poster laden room filled with boring cable on a 20 inch tv with nothing to do or watch just destroy my hearing with my huge ear phones letting the cruel high school world die for a while. so many hours spent that the local fiends heard me sing "mother" from kariokee disk that at first they thought it was glenn till i stoped singing and they all turned around to gripe " who was the a*** that shut off danzig", and were shocked to see me at the mike and the soundman saying that was "T" singing.

long ago back when earth A.D. came out i was very young i was born in late 72 but i was drawn to the cover and had to listen to it , it foraged a need for speed in me. it forever changed the way i listened , wrote and picked music.

as a fiend (cheezy crimson ghost tattoo and all) i still must hear my samhain or danzig tune so often.

I have been a Danzig and Misfits fan for years, but never owned a Samhain cd. Now I own them all and I can't believe I waited so long. Read more
