Used to love them, haven't listened to them in a while though. They're kind of silly though, and make me think of those skateboards in the 80s you could buy at Toys R Us, with the pictures of the skull and bloody, slimy eyeball, or the excessively grotesque wild animal.

In my humble opinion, the Misfits are one of the worst bands I have ever had the displeasure of listening to. Their lead singer has a horrible voice, their guitar riffs are unimaginitve, and their beats/bass lines are repetitive and boring. You could get any four people to get up on stage and dress like them and they could do the same job as them.

The only thing the Misfits have going for them are their name and looks.

In my humble opinion...

and a lot of them sound the same. Like if a teenage boy who is obsessed with monsters and role playing wrote them.

Misfits turned into Sam Hain then into something else, the last incarnation got popular, but I can't remember the name.

I agree with Madd. Repetition is a fast way to get to my trash bin. That's why I mentioned how they use simple bass and guitar riffs, cuz they are repititious and I find them boring. But this band does look cool. They remind me of GWAR in some weird way.

It had to be the hair. Did you really have the drowned flock-of-seagulls meets reverse-rat-tail hair style? It was the inverse of a mullet; party up front, business up the ass.

I have razorblade Romance and Heartache every moment single, good shit.
They're still called Him in the U.k. though, I bought the Her one because it was much cheaper than the import that said him
