Danzig is an American heavy metal band formed in 1987 by singer and songwriter Glenn Danzig, who was previously the frontman of the punk rock band Misfits. The band's self-titled debut album was released in 1988, marking their entry into the music scene.

The debut album received critical acclaim and achieved commercial success. It showcased the band's unique blend of heavy metal, blues, and gothic rock, with Glenn's powerful vocals at the forefront. The album featured the hit singles Mother and Twist of Cain, which became fan favorites and are still widely recognized today.

Despite not receiving mainstream radio airplay, Mother became a cult hit and garnered significant attention, solidifying the band's popularity among metal fans. The song's music video received regular rotation on MTV's Headbangers Ball, further boosting the band's exposure.

The band's raw, dark sound and Glenn's charismatic presence contributed to their recognition within the heavy metal and hard rock communities. Although the band's mainstream success may not match that of other iconic metal acts, their influence and impact on the genre cannot be denied.

Some of their notable subsequent albums include Lucifuge (1990), How the Gods Kill (1992), and Black Laden Crown (2017). These albums further solidified the band's reputation and expanded their musical exploration within the metal genre. Glenn's distinct voice and songwriting style, as well as the band's dark and brooding aesthetic, have left a lasting mark on the heavy metal and hard rock scene.
