SAMHAIN-INITIUM


Even though its hot and Summery outside, I've been listening to one of my favorite albums which is usually enjoyed best in the Fall. Initium is the first album from SAMHAIN, which was Glenn Danzig's band after the Misfits. It was released in 1984 and I guess people call it "death-rock," but I consider it a classic "hard to classify" punk album. Amazing cover, great songs, creepy production. Most effective for October/November listening, when the leaves are swirling outside, and it gets dark early. Their second full length album, November-Coming Fire is also a classic, now that I think about it. I guess it's too early to think about Fall.
