2nd album from 1990 by this influential American band led by Glenn Danzig, firmly consolidating the musical direction established after the end of SAMHAIN and moving even further away from his Punk roots in favour of a darker, heavier and more distinctive sound. Widely regarded as one of the finest releases of his entire career, it represented a major step forward in songwriting, atmosphere and identity.
Its sound blends Heavy Metal, Hard Rock and Blues Rock with a dark and occult atmosphere that became the band's trademark. Heavy riffs, moody textures, memorable melodies and Glenn Danzig's charismatic vocal performance drive a record packed with classics such as "Her Black Wings", "I'm the One" and "Long Way Back From Hell". An essential album that helped define the DANZIG sound and stands as one of the highlights of American Heavy Metal in the 1990s.
Recommended for fans of: THE CULT, TYPE O NEGATIVE, ALICE IN CHAINS and SAMHAIN.
