Danzig II: Lucifuge Explicit Lyrics

A classic album!

I knew one Danzig song before I bought this album, and it was "Mother". I listened to a few samples off this album, and being in the mood for something bluesy, I bought this album. Wow. I did not expect this to become one of my all time favorite albums. The day it arrived, I played it start to finish four times in my stereo. Now what makes the album so good? Simple. Danzig keeps it simple. This is hard rock with an awesome blues overtone, apparent on several songs. The fifth track, "I'm the One" is a completely acoustic blues track. All of the songs are so damn catchy! Every song has a memorable chorus, and I've had "Tired of Being Alive" on loop in my head ever since I got the album. Seriously, if you enjoy hard rock, pick up this album! Glenn really made a winner here. What an underrated album. Standout tracks: Snakes of Christ (Danzig swears up and down that my all time favorite band, Stone Temple Pilots, ripped off the riff for their song Sex Type Thing. While the riffs are similar, I don't think STP ripped Danzig off.), Killer Wolf, Tired of Being Alive, Her Black Wings, and Devil's Plaything. Enjoy this criminally underrated masterpiece of hard rock with a healthy dose of blues thrown in to boot!

I really like this album. It kind of loses steam after the first four songs, but that's not to say the rest of them are bad, just that the first four are really good.My favorite is "Tired of Being Alive." I really relate to it.Before now, I was only familiar with the first Danzig album, which of course is great. And the Misfits, which is one of my favorite bands.I actually saw him play this in its entirety at a festival in Las Vegas. He was spinning yarns in between songs like a punk rock grandpa, and he can still sing like, IDK . . . something that sings really well. He's still got it. He sounds like Kermit the Frog when he talks.If you want searing distortion and crunch, buy something else. The instrumentation on this has more in common with AC/DC or Led Zeppelin, lots of clear, open chords and whatnot. It's kind of like a 90s update of the 50s rock and roll sound, which is fun.I've been driving around with it since it came, I really can't get enough Danzig these days.

Packaged in perfect condition. Arrived Best quality.

As a teenager, this album stirred visions of voodoo, witchcraft and sexual debauchery. Today...about the same. Except, I now get the innuendos and double entendres. The subtle tongue-in-cheek humor tinged with dirty Blues swagger. I enjoy every track today, if for a few new reasons, as much as I did back when it was new.Enjoy.

I had to put a review down for this album! I first bought this album in 1994 and by accident left it in a friends car out in Arizona. I called and told him to keep it and I bought another! now he's a fan of Danzig. Anyway still to this day I listen to it weekly. I would be safe to say almost daily (In the car, MP3 working out, Playing Bass to it, ETC).It is by far one of Glenn Danzig's best albums IMO. I have been a Danzig fan since I first bought this album and over time bought all his others. But unlike this one, The other albums had to "grow" on me overtime. Not Lucifuge II! EVERY song is great and was rated in the top 50 albums of the 90's I read last year. Even Metallica said it should have gotten album of the year over their Black album of the same year! I can not say enough about this album. I tell people if I had only one album to choose from out of all of Glenn's works to listen to the rest of my life it would be Lucifuge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Great album!

Have you ever wondered what it would sound like if Dr Frankenstein made his monster using parts of Marvel Comic's Wolverine and, the King: Elvis Presley? What if the monster sung lead in a dark and moody metal band? Wonder no longer! That's what you get with Danzig's second LP release.It's more than the length of his side burns, short muscular build, the hairy-chest photo on the cover, or even his Southern blues-vocal stylings!?! (He was born in New Jersey, wasn't he? Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain!) The first Danzig album was good, perhaps very good; it was more of a straight-forward metal/rock sound, perhaps a bit rockabilly at times, very clean and tight. However, this second album takes Danzig's concept of a bluesy-metal band to its ultimate depth: Soulful dark sounds emanating from the deepest swamps of the bayou, delivering tales of those cursed, or damned, or soon to be wailing and gnashing their teeth, all in a heaping bowl of jambalaya goodness. The second Danzig album, while following through on his stylized moody black metal (that harkens back to his Samhain days), delivers the goods as a one-of-a-kind album and epitomizes Glenn Danzig's sound and artistry.

This one is very good with his original first line up of musicians being his second full length album,The first three and his EP have the same line up then he began to change things his fourth album has a different drummer and there is also a live album which I will say is my favorite especially disc 1 the sound and band are fantastic and you get a good look at his early releases on one disc it’s called Live on the Black Hand Side.
