@@E.C.2 They wanted Peter Steele to be the new singer and only had Graves for practicing at the time. Then when Peter came in they had Graves show him how to sing the songs and Peter said ''that kid is your singer not me'' meaning ''he should be your singer'' . And they took his advice.
title should be Jerry Only's OTHER brother... funny how Kenny seems to split the difference. Jerry keeps talking and hyping, and Doyle's a guy of few words. Kenny seems... regular.
You didn’t need a passport to get into Canada back then .......I love when people comment and say things so matter-of-fact like they were there and know how it all went down first hand......there’s two sides to every story and the truth is usually somewhere in the middle
It's a 2 way street, there's mistakes on both ends. Michael had nothing but good things to say about the band, Michael was more important than he was credited for
I very much like Michales vocals. He can write as well and is hilarious when he stomps all over the stage. Love Glenn but since that was over Michale was a fabulous new member imo. Even his look was spot on.🤘
Michael was the key songwriter in the 95'-00' Misfits and imho did a pretty good job fronting the band!. I saw many shows during that era and never left unsatisfied!.. Those shows were always a lotta fun!
@@stimpy2695 Lol, number one, you've not mentioned any of that, and secondly, you apparently don't know who wrote what, because Doyle only wrote a couple of tunes and Jerry and Daniel Ray wrote most of them... So wtf have you been reading? 🤔😂
@@GilbertSyndrome OHHHHHHHHHH?!?!?!?!?!?! YESSSS?!?!?!?! I AMAZON REDD YESSS Mr. JELLY ONRY IN MY OPINION?!?!?!??!?!?!!’ YESSSSSSSSSSSS NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!?!?!?!
What it sounds like without going overly deep is that Jerry wanted the new singer to essentially be a Misfits mark who was just happy to be there. When Michale wanted more..or to be a full member who had an opinion that mattered, the relationship soured....and quickly.
What do you mean by “mark”? You’re talking like a wrestling fan with wrestling terminology. But yeah, Michale is a member of the group and he is expected to be a teammate and to be present when his team had work. He was young with minimal experience- clearly the veterans of the group were the ones to make the shots and understandably. Had Michale stuck around and proved to be dependable and mature, perhaps into the 00’s he would’ve been granted equal power within the Misfits.
@@albinobat7484No, he wrote some and the most popular ones like Saturday Night, and Dig up Her Bones completely by himself and then I believe he helped write a lot of the others in a more collaborative fashion. I read somewhere that Crawling Eye was written by Graves and Doyle, I wouldn't be surprised if those two were the main writers in that era as Jerry isn't exactly well known for his songwriting abilities. You can tell that Graves didn't write any of the uber aggressive riffs either because his solo debut album tutles Grave has a much more laid back punk riff style than the 90s Misfits had where Doyle was beating the power chords to death and doing string slides and pinch harmonics constantly 😂.
Phillip Pirowkowski Jerry began using the name ONLY after his name was misspelled on their first single Cough Cool.. He wanted to be called Jerry, only Jerry and the name stuck.
I don´t believe anything from this guy, I watched Michael´s interview with Eric Blair and he explained everything that happened in the Misfits era, simple Jerry did not like that Michael was having all the attention, Jerry sucks as lead vocals, they played Michael replaced him with Myke Hideous for the South America Tour in ´98 and the ask Michael to come back to the band, and then he left again for some troubles with Jerry and this guy again. Well I´m happy for the reunion any way and now the have Dave on drums so that´s really cool!!!
@@OnTheEdgex23 how was he delusional? For wanted to be treated as one more of the band? The best songs of the graves era where written by him. They wouldn't have had the success they had if it wasn't for Graves during the 90's (other than having Danzig). They treated him like an employee and that's f'd up
here in Brazil/South America, Graves got the fame of xenofobic (this because Jerry said he does not wanna come to perform the shows. Graves denied it years later)
Shortly after Graves got the boot I was at my second Misfits show, I met Jerry and while signing my fiend club card I asked where Mike was. "He was abducted by aliens"
bro same kind of fuck shit. i was like eleven and graves had just left like maybe a few months before but being a kid (as well as the internet not being as informative as it is. holy fuck i’m old) i hadn’t known and they were playing at the sanctuary. i was so fucking stoked! then jerry walked out. i was like wtf? i asked him about graves and he said vaporized by martian’s or something. seeing me sad i guess he felt kinda bad so he was like “hey, kid, want a danzig original legacy of brutality patch” it was the skeleton one, you know, i was like “fuck yeah!” he was like “20 bucks and it’s yours.” i bought it he signed it i was outside waiting for the bus, looked at the date “1998” i was like fuuuuuckk. sorry for the novel btw.
It helps to show up when your ride is actually where it’s supposed to be. Idk, any time I hear any of the Only clan speaking, Forget about just Mike and Glen… I seem to understand more and more why there was always a revolving lineup in the misfits.
I heard that they were supposed to pick him up or they were supposed to get him a ride and they didnt. He said that they proceeded to do everything without him. By that time they were already talking to Mike Hideous about taking Michales spot. They really treated Graves like shit. That's why Michale Graves walked off stage and quit during a tour. If you look up interviews, Hideous basically states the same thing that Graves did. He said they treated him like absolute trash after he did a last minute fill in for them on the same tour Graves left. The Graves era was amazing and they really had something going. Jerry and Kenny are assholes. They sold out majorly. I think that's why Doyle does his own thing in a smaller band. His band still has integrity.
Michael Graves came off as a little bit delusional about how much he brought to the band but I think he ended up getting screwed out of the band just like Bobby Steele, who wrote a good portion of their early songs. The Misfits are just like any other band who can't keep it together. I've met Jerry Only before he was very down to earth, but I'm finding out that he appears to have an ego problem. His brother Doyle ,I've never met but I get the impression that he and Jerry don't really get along. I kind of see why Glenn Danzig didn't want to do a reunion with the Misfits for so long.
@@PunkZombie1300 Likewise I would say imo Bobby Steele's band, The Undead, sound better than anything the Graves era put out ( IF you are more of a fan of the original Misfits stuff. But you're probably not). Point being I guess is that maybe Jerry thrives better in an actual band, than it being HIS band
Delusional? That's how I'd describe the rest of the band for doing what they did to graves. Famous monsters is arguably one of the greatest albums of all time and I give most of the credit to graves.
Graves wrote all of the best song from that era though, how is that delusional? He just knows what he contributed, and without him I doubt they would've come back in any meaningful way. Just look at Jerry and Doyles activity prior to ramping up AP, they were hosting late night b horror movie shows and shit like that, not exactly thriving.
There needs to be a correction to why Graves didn’t show up to the first day of shooting the Scream video shoot. It had nothing to do with the Canadian border or missing paperwork. In the Eric Blair Part 3 interview, Graves gave a very vague response, the band was fractured, fighting, disorganized information of when the music shoot would be, how they would get to Canada, Doyle not being committed to showing up but eventually did, Graves eventually hearing that everyone is already on set, driving up a day later to join the rest of the band, etc. If I were Graves I would have just shown up and then discussed the issues post music shoot. The main issue is Jerry Only controlled the band too much and didn’t see other members as equal partner, also legally on contract. Understandably since he’s a founding member but so was Doyle and Graves was a huge asset as a singer.
Doyle wasn’t a founding member. He was the 3rd or 4th guitarist (don’t remember which) If were talking about founding fathers for the beginning of the band, Doyle would’ve been 11 when the band first started.
You do realise that Eric Blair is full of sh*t? He’s literally regarded as a joke in the music industry. Multiple female guests have stated they didn’t feel comfortable around Eric as well.
Doyle was not a founding member.. he was the 3rd guitarist. Bobby Steele should be playing guitar with the band during these “reunion” shows - Misfits without Glenn is not the Misfits - it’s a parody of a hardcore horror band in the likes of KISS ughhh
Sorry, but this dude has one job being the brother and manager of the misfits. You would think he would know in advance that we need to make sure Michale has the right documents to get into 1:02 Canada. This might be an assumption, but correct me if I’m wrong.
Michael graves revived the misfits in the 90’s. Michael knew nothing about the misfits which is why he was hired because they didn’t want someone trying to imitate Danzig.
In a 2019 Brazillian tour, he book a flight and go back to US in the middle of the night, lefting 6 gigs in open. Apparently has some arguments with the contractor but short after he said that his daughter was depressed and stuff like that. I know some people that travelled next day to the city and get the big surprise and the fans were never refunded. Soo i always buyied Graves history, not anymore...
@@Parmycrypta what are talking about, he and the band was inside the country already and already have done some gigs. I see his show two days before he flee to US
I forget where it was but the misfits were supposed to do a signing at a record store back in the day and only Jerry (wocka wocka) showed up. After a show at Birch Hill, again, only Jerry stayed after the set to sign stuff. Seems like pretty much none of them got along at that time.
Jerry only’s project 1950s cannot compare to anything Micheal did with the misfits. I think Micheal was bigger than he realized but everyone around had noticed how great he was and they wanted someone regular to take the si Hera place while Jerry and Doyle took the spotlight cause they were original members. Micheal Wrote music and took them to a different place than Danzig did with the misfits. Micheal was the Misfits from 1995-2001.
That's what Misfits do! Only Jerry's other brother Just picturing Doyle kickn his And Jerry's ass when they were young. Doyle's the coolest out of All of them.
Heather Thomson I’m sure Doyle is the youngest out of both of them. Not hating or anything but I’m sure they all got into the usual sibling fights because they worked at their dads machine shop and we’re pretty shredded at a young age.
pretty sure they were signed to roadrunner at the time. also, wasn’t it a “project for project” thing? like, you didn’t have to ask if he could stop working on the movie for that day because, like, they were in the movie? sucks to suck
Dude!!! Yous guys screwed HIM OVER!!! the while Mike Hideous thing!.... F that. I saw the band implode live in Orlando FL. It took a long time for them to come out cause of the drama back stage. He came out and laid the law! Then Doyle's guitar starts to cut out for a second and he gets fused and storms off! Then Graves said F this! Leaves and then Chud throws out his sticks. Jerry stayed and did a 138 with the audience and him singing. I kno a personal source, I've heard A LOT!!!! the "he was doing this! .... and not foing what he should've!".... I kno yous guys REALLY wanted to be Wrastlers!!! But that's what kinda trash talk this is. They screwed him over and instead of a REAL MEMBER! he was put under contract like a hired gun. Sorry! Yous guys shot urself in the foot! A gawddamn shame also! The FAMOUS MONSTERS era was the best when they were at their biggest! Beyond a cult band like with Glenn. Just sad and disappointing seeing stuff like this and it's not the truth! It's a 1 way mirror instead of laying out all the facts
En mi opinion, a rocky (o kenny como quieran llamarle) solo le interesaba en dinero que gasto por George Romero, porque en la entrevista trata de Michale y el solo gasta el tiempo en hablar de el video de bruiser y scream envés de hablar de Michale :/
Jerry onlys greed and the sheer arrogance of Doyle (ie just watch ANY interview) just kills me. I’ve been a fan of the misfits since I was literally a child in 87. So much so I have commission art, expensive ass painting of the crimson ghost and the misfits. I have BOUGHT every album including nearly all lps rare singles etc. my 8 year old son, which I let him pick his first lp (told him anything in the store) and he’s buys his own plan number 9, so I’m raising the next generation of fiends and it kills me that they seem so unappreciative. This week watching Doyle’s interviews with rock journalist (whom obviously are huge fans) and him treat them like they were ignorant peasants has just made me sick. I love the Danzig era , and the graves era in its own right but the Friday 13th is trash. They are more a brand now than the same music giants that they were and I can’t tell you how this just breaks my heart that the generation of fiends that are coming up, just kids have to see this shitty side. This nasty ass better than thou Jersey attitude. Just my two broken hearted cents
I would say this: they were always like this. We just know our heroes, stars, icons, and anyone else we've ever put on a pedestal before better now because of the internet. I got into the Misfits in 1988 at the age of 12. Same thing; I was I obsessed. Part of that came from the fact we as fans didn't really know anything at all about them. It was just the music, album art, a bootleg video of that Why Be Something You are Not show, and a story about them here and there. The lack of information about them made them magical to each of us individually as our own assumptions and perceptions of who they might be filled the voids. I realize that now with e every celebrity, person, crush etc. We do it with all people we don't know very well ,or at all. It's because of this realization I can now look past who the people themselves are, and still like the music. Or whatever it is. I've got a favorite football team. Would I actually want to know any of those guys? No, they're probably all meat head idiots. But it doesn't stop me enjoying what the do. Meeting Jerry Only was the first experience to teach me this. I still had this mythic, larger than life , horror- punk ideal about the guy. Met him at a signing. Seemed uninterested ( I don't blame him doing the same thing to a few hundred people). I went to shake his hand , and Jerry turned I to the Jerry business man immediately. It wasn't negative, but I left realizing my hero was just some dude that wasn't as cool as I thought he was. But I still love the Misfits.
Moyle is the luckiest guy in the music industry. they even hired a real guitar player to play for him on stage for the renunion shows. he should be literally performing oral sex on every fan in the place for not chasing him out of the place with torches.
In Miami , Michael Midnight from Boy Prostitute always end his show doing misfits covers and I swear hes better than Graves. Hes from NYC so hes got that thing. He did a misfits tribute for Halloween and sang 32 fits song and two Ramones songs no problem. Hes got that voice. Midnight should have replaced Graves and would have done a better job. Misfits Forever!! Julie B
No one would know the Misfits without him….they were finished. And Jerry singing alone was just embarrassing to everyone. It’s just for the money at this point, but go fiend club, I guess.
To Jerry's credit... he at least TRIED to get the original Misfits singer, Glenn Danzig, on board but Glenn basically said "eff you, Jerry!!". Jerry then tried to get Dave Vanian (from "The Damned") as the singer, and for whatever reason, that fell through and didn't work. Besides Glenn Danzig... Dave Vanian would probably have been the only other singer I could see fronting the Misfits with any degree of credibility (Note: the Misfits traveled all the way to the UK to open for The Damned back in the early 1980's and Glenn had even offered to write a song for Vanian to sing. So, that does say something as far as the apparent relationship that the Misfits had with Dave Vanian. Besides (or other than) Glenn Danzig or Dave Vanian... the only other person that might have been a reasonable choice would've been someone like Peter Murphy from Bauhaus. With all that being said... what in the hell Jerry ever saw in that walking cat-turd Michael Graves, I will never know. To say nothing of the fact that Jerry had practically handed over what was surely a golden opportunity on a silver platter for that douchebag graves to sing in one of the most legendary and iconic American punk-rock bands... only for him to shit all over them. Jerry should've hired that fat slob Danny (from Northside Kings) to haul off and slap the 🐈💩 outta that poser Michael Graves.
Graves was a crap fit to begin with, didn't even know who the Misfits were when he auditioned. How many of us that actually grew up with the Misfits and have items no one can have in there collection unless you were there? Any of us could have done better.
Him not knowing who they were is why they picked him. They didn't want a Danzig impersonator. The only people who hate graves are people who know famous monsters is their greatest album ever.
Lol funny thing is that someone commented on a early 95/96 concert where graves looks like he got styled like danzig and the commenter said he knew all the lyrics to most of their songs when he auditioned @@Hcaz1113
People really try to blame jerry for Micheals awfulness. Isn't graves a full on pagan proudboy???? Even doyle hates Micheal for not being the singer of abominator after he said he would help doyle out with his side project.
While I’m not disputing that Danzig was the better front man for the misfits in terms of the attitude and the image “punk vibe” he brought, Graves musically was unquestionably the better singer. He was like Corey Taylor, he could do all the harsh stuff but was able to have this beautifully melodic personality to his singing. Danzig has definitely improved in terms of the overall musicality of his voice and I’m not detracting at all from him, because he’s awesome, but I still back Graves over him purely from a music standpoint
Graves was like a coat rack standing in Glenn's spot. Graves songs were cheesy imitations of Glenn's. Graves struggled to sound like Glenn and still does.
Peter Steele vouched for Graves, that's all i care about...
How so?

I think Micheal was bigger than he realized but everyone around had noticed how great he was and they wanted someone regular to take the si Hera place while Jerry and Doyle took the spotlight cause they were original members.
Micheal Wrote music and took them to a different place than Danzig did with the misfits. Micheal was the Misfits from 1995-2001.
Earth vs Spider alone puts half of Misfits' stuff after Famous Monsters to shame.
That's a damn good song along with the song "Beware." Had he stayed in the Misfits then they probably would have wound on one their albums.
That's what Misfits do!
Only Jerry's other brother
Just picturing Doyle kickn his And Jerry's ass when they were young.
Doyle's the coolest out of All of them.

I’m sure Doyle is the youngest out of both of them. Not hating or anything but I’m sure they all got into the usual sibling fights because they worked at their dads machine shop and we’re pretty shredded at a young age.
Jerry is the toughest brother then and now..
@TallicLizzy No he doesn't he's just super shy
Graves is a unique badass singer in his own rite. I’d say one of the best modern rock singers alive
The Misfits is a crappy band that is amazing only when fronted by the 2 different people that Jerry Only seems to always run off.
Michael Graves is the best Misfits’ vocalist.period
Was the "Famous Monsters" album cover really Graves.... I noticed he seems bigger .. and other photos he looks different physically
Um. . .yo, that's a painting lol
@@glitterbrains69 😂
pretty sure they were signed to roadrunner at the time. also, wasn’t it a “project for project” thing? like, you didn’t have to ask if he could stop working on the movie for that day because, like, they were in the movie? sucks to suck
Dude!!! Yous guys screwed HIM OVER!!!
the while Mike Hideous thing!....
F that. I saw the band implode live in Orlando FL. It took a long time for them to come out cause of the drama back stage. He came out and laid the law!
Then Doyle's guitar starts to cut out for a second and he gets fused and storms off! Then Graves said F this! Leaves and then Chud throws out his sticks.
Jerry stayed and did a 138 with the audience and him singing.
I kno a personal source, I've heard A LOT!!!!
the "he was doing this! .... and not foing what he should've!"....
I kno yous guys REALLY wanted to be Wrastlers!!! But that's what kinda trash talk this is.
They screwed him over and instead of a REAL MEMBER! he was put under contract like a hired gun.
Sorry! Yous guys shot urself in the foot!
A gawddamn shame also!
The FAMOUS MONSTERS era was the best when they were at their biggest!
Beyond a cult band like with Glenn.
Just sad and disappointing seeing stuff like this and it's not the truth! It's a 1 way mirror instead of laying out all the facts
En mi opinion, a rocky (o kenny como quieran llamarle) solo le interesaba en dinero que gasto por George Romero, porque en la entrevista trata de Michale y el solo gasta el tiempo en hablar de el video de bruiser y scream envés de hablar de Michale :/
He must be too young at the time so no wonder he was immature
Jerry onlys greed and the sheer arrogance of Doyle (ie just watch ANY interview) just kills me. I’ve been a fan of the misfits since I was literally a child in 87. So much so I have commission art, expensive ass painting of the crimson ghost and the misfits. I have BOUGHT every album including nearly all lps rare singles etc. my 8 year old son, which I let him pick his first lp (told him anything in the store) and he’s buys his own plan number 9, so I’m raising the next generation of fiends and it kills me that they seem so unappreciative. This week watching Doyle’s interviews with rock journalist (whom obviously are huge fans) and him treat them like they were ignorant peasants has just made me sick. I love the Danzig era , and the graves era in its own right but the Friday 13th is trash. They are more a brand now than the same music giants that they were and I can’t tell you how this just breaks my heart that the generation of fiends that are coming up, just kids have to see this shitty side. This nasty ass better than thou Jersey attitude. Just my two broken hearted cents
djfreake Yes Doyle turns me off in interviews. I don’t understand his personality and why he is so bitter. He has everything going for him.
@Bread& Butter He plays what he plays, doesn't feel the need to learn anything else which is fine. But yeah he is a bit arrogant.
Держись, чувак!
I would say this: they were always like this. We just know our heroes, stars, icons, and anyone else we've ever put on a pedestal before better now because of the internet. I got into the Misfits in 1988 at the age of 12. Same thing; I was I obsessed. Part of that came from the fact we as fans didn't really know anything at all about them. It was just the music, album art, a bootleg video of that Why Be Something You are Not show, and a story about them here and there. The lack of information about them made them magical to each of us individually as our own assumptions and perceptions of who they might be filled the voids. I realize that now with e every celebrity, person, crush etc. We do it with all people we don't know very well ,or at all. It's because of this realization I can now look past who the people themselves are, and still like the music. Or whatever it is. I've got a favorite football team. Would I actually want to know any of those guys? No, they're probably all meat head idiots. But it doesn't stop me enjoying what the do. Meeting Jerry Only was the first experience to teach me this. I still had this mythic, larger than life , horror- punk ideal about the guy. Met him at a signing. Seemed uninterested ( I don't blame him doing the same thing to a few hundred people). I went to shake his hand , and Jerry turned I to the Jerry business man immediately. It wasn't negative, but I left realizing my hero was just some dude that wasn't as cool as I thought he was. But I still love the Misfits.
Moyle is the luckiest guy in the music industry. they even hired a real guitar player to play for him on stage for the renunion shows. he should be literally performing oral sex on every fan in the place for not chasing him out of the place with torches.
It sounds like they are making excuses for firing a superstar. Karma never allowed them to have another descent singer after that.
"A Superstar" 😂😂😂😂
Yeah he's done big things since getting canned
I think the bottom fell out of that music. If it all worked out with Graves I think they could have rode it out
This guy is gravely mistaking what really happened.
Michale Graves is the GOAT!
Mis-titled all the way. Plus there are two Michael's and it is confusing.
Still shittin on Michale huh? Just admit you guys fumbled the resurrected misfits
They set him up. Graves was not the problem
Typical Jersey guy bullshit.
In Miami , Michael Midnight from Boy Prostitute always end his show doing misfits covers and I swear hes better than Graves. Hes from NYC so hes got that thing. He did a misfits tribute for Halloween and sang 32 fits song and two Ramones songs no problem. Hes got that voice. Midnight should have replaced Graves and would have done a better job. Misfits Forever!!

No one would know the Misfits without him….they were finished. And Jerry singing alone was just embarrassing to everyone. It’s just for the money at this point, but go fiend club, I guess.
Should be relabeled to Jerry and Doyle’s brother.
Onko tämä veli vai itse jerry
Disliked that I met him high at Joey Ramone and the Blitzkrieg's
Yea I don’t believe this
This looks like a tim and eric skit 🤣
Who is this guy, i though Jerry only had only one brother
Hes "rock" (ken caiafa) he Is the Misfits manager, and jerrys brother
To Jerry's credit...
he at least TRIED to get the
original Misfits singer, Glenn Danzig,
on board but Glenn basically said
"eff you, Jerry!!".
Jerry then tried to get Dave Vanian
(from "The Damned") as the singer,
and for whatever reason,
that fell through and didn't work.
Besides Glenn Danzig...
Dave Vanian would probably have been
the only other singer I could see fronting
the Misfits with any degree of credibility
(Note: the Misfits traveled all the way
to the UK to open for The Damned
back in the early 1980's and Glenn
had even offered to write
a song for Vanian to sing.
So, that does say something as far as
the apparent relationship that
the Misfits had with Dave Vanian.
Besides (or other than)
Glenn Danzig or Dave Vanian...
the only other person that might
have been a reasonable choice
would've been someone like
Peter Murphy from Bauhaus.
With all that being said...
what in the hell Jerry ever saw
in that walking cat-turd Michael Graves,
I will never know.
To say nothing of the fact
that Jerry had practically
handed over what was surely
a golden opportunity on a silver platter
for that douchebag graves to sing in
one of the most legendary and iconic
American punk-rock bands...
only for him to shit all over them.
Jerry should've hired that fat slob
Danny (from Northside Kings)
to haul off and slap the 🐈💩
outta that poser Michael Graves.
Seems like you're mad that Graves is the most technically gifted singer they've ever had
Priceless irony: Graves was such a shitty understudy that he needed an understudy to fill in for him.
I think this guy is lying.
What video was it
Ecr Tv pretty sure it was scream
Scream
Wait, is that Jerry? Or jerry’s brother? I’m so confused
It's Doyle's brother
@@itsgoff So this isn't Jerry only?
@@TheRemulosEpsolonProgramme It's Jerry's brother
Graves was a crap fit to begin with, didn't even know who the Misfits were when he auditioned. How many of us that actually grew up with the Misfits and have items no one can have in there collection unless you were there? Any of us could have done better.
Him not knowing who they were is why they picked him. They didn't want a Danzig impersonator. The only people who hate graves are people who know famous monsters is their greatest album ever.
Lol funny thing is that someone commented on a early 95/96 concert where graves looks like he got styled like danzig and the commenter said he knew all the lyrics to most of their songs when he auditioned @@Hcaz1113
People really try to blame jerry for Micheals awfulness. Isn't graves a full on pagan proudboy???? Even doyle hates Micheal for not being the singer of abominator after he said he would help doyle out with his side project.
NOONE CARES ABOUT MICHALE GRAVES. NOONE. DANZIG!
Graves is awesome lol Danzig wishes he could hit the notes that Graves can with his monotone Elvis impersonator voice haha smh closed minded toads
While I’m not disputing that Danzig was the better front man for the misfits in terms of the attitude and the image “punk vibe” he brought, Graves musically was unquestionably the better singer. He was like Corey Taylor, he could do all the harsh stuff but was able to have this beautifully melodic personality to his singing. Danzig has definitely improved in terms of the overall musicality of his voice and I’m not detracting at all from him, because he’s awesome, but I still back Graves over him purely from a music standpoint
Wrong.
Graves was like a coat rack standing in Glenn's spot.
Graves songs were cheesy imitations of Glenn's.
Graves struggled to sound like Glenn and still does.
Christopher Carnes thats because he wasnt trying to be man. Their lyrics, image and position as a frontman are too different to compare
Jerry Only’s brother.who are you in the actual BAND!?!
Mike Graves was awesome! Much better than Glenn
George Romero should be honored to do a Misfits video.… Not the other way around
🪬
"he doesn't show up" he was left at the border without a passport thats why he didn't show up
