.History
Danzig traces its beginnings back to July 14, 1986, when
In 1987, the band evolved into a solid hard rock act, with the addition of
By 1992, Rubin's involvement with the band had waned and Danzig himself took credit for co-producing the third album, Danzig III: How the Gods Kill. In May 1993, the band released the Thrall-Demonsweatlive EP, which contained several live tracks from the band's 1992 Halloween show, as well as three new studio tracks. The EP provided a hit for the band when the live version of "Mother" (a song from the first Danzig album) became popular on hard rock radio stations. A new version of the "Mother" music video was created using live footage, and the video became a hit on MTV as well, pushing Danzig into the mainstream. After an October 4, 1994 show in the Whisky a Go Go in Los Angeles, the band received two gold awards for an excess of 500,000 units sold both for their debut album and Thrall-Demonsweatlive.
In the fall of 1994, Danzig issued their fourth album, which was also successful and spawned the singles "Until You Call on the Dark" and "Cantspeak". However, shortly before the release of that album, Biscuits left the band and was replaced by future Queens of the Stone Age drummer Joey Castillo.
In 1995, Danzig began to fall apart when Christ and Eerie Von decided to quit the group, leaving Glenn the only remaining original member. Many lineup changes happened since and Danzig released six more albums: Blackacidevil (1996), Satan's Child (1999), I Luciferi (2002), Circle of Snakes (2004) and Deth Red Sabaoth (2010). As of February 2014, Danzig is working on a new album.[1]
Danzig also recorded the song "Black Hell" for the soundtrack to the 2011 film The Hangover Part II.
Danzig's commented on record singles and the band's approach to releasing singles in America: "Singles? We don't do that in America. Maybe there will be for the European market. In America only people like Madonna and N'Sync record singles."[2]
