What saddens me is that I read an interview of Doyle from some years ago where he says that looking back at the Graves era, listening back those two albums, he "realized" they were shit, that the music they wrote without Danzig was shit. I was dissapointed, I love the Graves era albums, and to know that Doyle thinks those albums were absolute garbage...it just let me down, man
Doyle is capable of being a prick. I love the graves era, and I think hes a dick for saying that. Down is a great band btw I got into nola around the same time I was listening to famous monsters
i love doyle but his new music is far more "shit" than the graves era misfits ever were, it's all pinched harmonics over and over and over again, lol....
The crazy thing about Doyle making statements like this, is.... His currently music is Juvenile and quite frankly, it's unlistenable. The Misfits with Graves at the helm was Quality music. Not to mention, Graves wrote, pretty much all of it.
I agree with you guys. The interview I read (I will post a link below) is from 2013, I don't know if he still thinks this way he did think it. It makes me sad. rocknightmare.com/2013/09/30/interview-with-ex-misfits-guitarist-doyle-wolfgang-von-frankenstein/ "Dante: How about a Michael Graves era reunion? Doyle: No, not really. I would not want to revisit those songs. I was listening to those songs not to long ago. I was at a signing with Dr. Chud, and after doing what I’m doing now, I looked at Dr. Chud and said “this shit sucks man.” There were some songs I don’t remember ever hearing in my life."
I love the Graves era, his lack of ego makes him such a legend to me. Love the guy, and I love his music too. Hopefully I'll be able to meet him one day ❤️
Michale is an incredible guy. We opened for him in flagstaff, Az. We talked for a long while, I’ve seen him and we opened for him many times. He’s always been amazing. I told him I worked for special needs kids and he was impressed, so impressed he gave me his personal number and email. I never thought my hugest punk inspiration would do that
I met Michale myself. His music has had such a positive impact on my life, that I told him briefly how he affected me and how he was sort of there for me. Whether it was life, work, the gym. I didn’t ask, but he signed an album I bought and gave me a poster and signed that as well. We talked a ton but the one thing I vividly remember him saying “at the end of the day, I’m just Michale. It still amazes me that I get to meet amazing people like yourself and positively impact. What you said made my night and I get to heal knowing what I do creates change.” Edit: he also came out after the show to the merch table to meet everyone. Was not a planned meet and greet. Which is a moment I’ll remember forever.
I've always been a danzig loyalist... but I came across a video of Graves playing dig up her bones solo acoustic, it was really incredible. Gained a lot of respect for this man, his soul singing, playing guitar, and just who he is. Much respect Michale, theres a lot of fans and fiends that still care. Great interview.
If static age was never released and me being a Danzig fanboy American psycho would be my favorite misfits record. Graves is severely underrated and gets kicked down to much. Bless Graves heart and his music if it wasn’t Graves era misfits then I wouldn’t look into “real punk”. Thank you Eric for giving us these interviews and hope to see more from you and Graves.
Im an old fan of the original Misfits, but I loved the Graves albums. He brought the band back from the oblivion they were in after Glen left. It's interesting to note that the band hasn't released anything good since he left. Cornball 50's covers? They should give up on trying to deal with Glen nd get Graves back and become a functioning productive band again.
So I'm a HUGE Graves era fan. Here recently my bday (4/20) my lovely fiance saw he was selling lyric skulls signed by him. Due to covid it was a month later until I got it. But here's the crazy part. I send a message on Instagram and HE FACETIMED ME AND WISHED ME HAPPY BELATED BDAY AND HOPE I ENJOYED THE SKULL (Saturday Night's lyrics) Graves. You'll have a fan in me. And I hope one day to see you reunite with the misfits.
I meet Graves in maine , he played an acoustic version of monsters . At a little pub called the pilots cove . I got to talk to him for a few and gave him a hug told him how much his old as well as his new music means to me . GRAVES IS THE MISFITS . I have so much respect , for thus man . His new music is so powerful, his def a all around music artist in all sence of the word . He gave up everything to have his mental heath not be destroyed. I can't even quit smoking . Lol .. to me a real hero and a great person , really kind really giving. I meet the man so I know . until you meet him and only then will you understand what I mean . THANK YOU MICHAEL .
I saw him solo and it was amazing! If you have a chance don’t pass it up. He was so nice and sincere. Hung out with the crowd after signing anything taking photos and just talking.
Micheal Graves seriously creative and intelligent Thank you for sharing this with us. Understood God bless you and your Family Blair, thanks for that interview Great videos from Michael Graves here.
🤘🏼You know this is one of the best interviews I’ve ever seen from Michael Graves like seriously to just take the time and talk about 9/11 that says a lot about him more than just being a musician, and that’s a respect that I sincerely regret talking bad about this guy, back in the day thinking he was never going to be known as the second lead singer of the misfits but this man won my blessing and also taught me something from this interview really good shit 🤘🏼
I absoutely like the way Michale looks at the world and our current situation. He's definitely someone who reflects himself and his actions and trys to become better. More people should be like that!
This is an awesome interview with Michale... I haven't seen any interviews of him where he felt this comfortable to really open up on a lot of shit he spoke about and got very personal...
This was a good surprise twist to this interview. It really gives an in depth into who Graves is. I had the pleasure of interviewing him and even though he wasn't the first well known artist that i did, it was a big leg up for my blog. Thank you Michale
I've genuine respect for this man. Because he has balls and he has control over his own mind. This is what you hope to share with your family members and your real friends. It just isn't all that common sadly. You can try to help others, but at the end of the day when 'trying' is a lost cause, you have to continue to better yourself, and just hang on to the others that have been taken. But you may spend a lifetime trying to get your loved ones to snap out of the fcking madness and still fail. You have to make the best of you being able to have control your own mind and make others feel positive and comfortable. That is the conclusion I've come to. You will wreck yourself trying to force others to see how things really are. It is sad, because people literally kill themselves due to believing lies which creates unnecessary stress, which kills quicker and leaves people on deadly meds in order to live.
Great vid. I was a Danzig Misfits purist but after watching this I'm gonna go check out the Graves albums and finally listen with unbiased ears. This guy is pretty cool.
It seems more that he is mentally going through struggles. Hearing voices, and wanting to hang himself. We all hear voices and get depressed. The fact that Jerry and Doyle were driving him this nuts though is puzzling. Maybe too much pressure on him to be the singer? How can he say he was not in the band though, and was not getting paid? That's wild about the hanging visions. Never heard that story before. Famous monsters was a solid album. I know in some interviews it was either Doyle or Jerry saying g they were frustrated with Graves because he'd forget the words on stage sometimes, or got drunk. So what? Graves was the Hagar to Van Halen. I really think he was not treated with enough respect as the new singer. Or maybe he's too sensitive, who knows. Can you imagine reading he hanged himself? Ot would have put the band on the map like Pantera or Metallica probably. But then he says there was money, girls, tours? Agreed 9/11 screwed up the country. Glad Graves is able to reflect well. I can relate to people fighting when you're making some good magic. I think 9/11 was an inside job.
Was probably being paid shit. Sounds like jerry expected it to be his and doyles band and hired a kid that would just be happy singing for the misfits and gave him a lowball contract
Graves deserve the world because he understands that a band isn’t a suppose to be a band it’s suppose to be a family. I’m starting and told my band mates that we still have morals like graves. Huge graves fan for life. Famous monsters is so awesome
I listened to the misfits when i was in middle school but it wasnt until the graves albums that became a diehard misfits fan. Danzig was great but graves era had a much harder edge that i liked more
Eric_Grant_Swisher that’s because Regardless of what people think of Jerry Only, he’s a class act and always has been .doyle and Danzig have always been dicks. .
I hated the Graves era, even walked out mid show after my whole life wishing to see the Misfits play...but I have a whole new respect for this guy. He's said more truth in this video than Danzig ever could.
Love the Graves era stuff. Wasn't canon Misfits but there were two solid albums and Michael put on a fabulous show. He was awesome and I had a blast seeing his version of the band live.
The Graves era gave rejuvenated the Misfits name. It’s really hard to hear the story of a person who thinks they hit they started a dream which turned out to be a nightmare. I kind of feel the same way when I got out of college and started my career. Having people treat you like crap for no reason is heartbreaking. I can’t imagine what it felt like to be in Mikes shoes and go through that. I never understood why people have to be vindictive for no reason.
If I could choose between the original misfits or a graves era reunion id pick graves without question.. I love danzig and his solo albums but the misfits peaked as a band with graves
@@jamoandb8470 haha, i like the graves era a lot and think hes a brilliant vocalist, but the danzig era is so much more badass! danzig was the misfits, i mean he wrote all the music, lyrics, ran the fiend club himself, he was the heart and soul of the misfits. jerry only was kind of a poseur, he played in a punk rock band but sat around listening to van halen when he wasnt in his "jerry only costume"....
I love Graves era. I went to one of his shows before the pandemic and he came out after the show and met with the crowd. He didn't charge money to hang out, he took pictures and signed autographs for free. Danzig has always been a narcissist and it really makes him unlikable, he treats the fan base like we're jerks. Probably why he got knocked out after his show...lol
I love Misfits. I came into them during the Graves era and I love both Graves and Danzig. Sucks to hear that Doyle hates the Graves era as I think there is some quality stuff there.
I love his vocals. He's right. We've been separated into small groups that are all against each other. All the makings of a civil war and no more America. 😔
The thing about Michael Graves that I don't get: The Misfits don't really show their politics. I heard that MG is a "proud boy". Do I really care if he is? No. He isn't singing about being a proud boy or anything that he may be affiliated with in this word. He has such a distinct great voice. Is he Danzig? No but he is up to singing for another version of the Misfits.
he spoke very well here I have a better understanding of him as a person with this interview I was a little skeptical wen I seen him on info wars but now I kindle think he's legit when he speaks on these types of topics talked about on that platform
I first got into Graves when i was I middle school and didnt know that there was soneone before until later in my HS when ibgor more into hardcore punk rock
I love this guy. It's a damn shame he couldn't share his political views or shave his head without bein labeled a nazi. He's almost 50, his hair is prolly damaged so he shaves it. Let the man live his life
Sorry too say it but the graves era of the Misfits was the last stand they had.The band was at its new peak with Michael in the band too bad they didnt respect him.
I like what he said about people disagreeing. I think he is speaking of liberals completely. They are so intolerant. I have a feeling it was a combination of thi gs with him leaving the band. Lots of pressure on him to outdo Danzig and carry the band, yet he was either treated, or felt like it was not his band despite 2 great albums.You will hear different sides from Jerry and Doyle on it, but on stage I could see the slight hostility towards Graves, but maybe 9/11 shook him up, and he's either way too sensitive, or did not care for the rock star scene. Who knows. The man is very insightful and a deep thinker.
Man... sometimes, as fans, people can really see what would be the best move for bands, but when there are deeper problems between the members, it sucks for us and it’s bad for them. Bands ruin their careers over petty BS. Misfits when Graves was kicked out Mudvayne with whatever happened... The White Stripes when they split up Killssitch Engage when Howard left Gallows when Frank left Pantera with Phil and Dimebag’s fight As I Lay Dying when Tim went to Prison Blink 182 when Tom left It happens all the time. Good bands destroyed over stupid shit. And who suffers? The fans.
I wish Mike had been able to stick it out as I loved his era of the band and they were a lot of fun to see live!. Once Graves, Doyle and Chud left I lost all interest in anything Jerry was doing!.
I wanted to hate Devil’s Rain.. But I just can’t. It’s actually chock-full of great tunes. Jerry may have treated graves like shit, along with Doyle, but I still have a certain appreciation for him for soldiering on with that band.
Although I prefer Danzig led Misfits, anyone dissing Graves for how he votes or him being Conservative aint PUNK! All Yall calling Graves a "proud boy" should be ASHAMED!!!!
I really didn't like his albums , but i did see him play live in atlanta on tour with GWAR , it was a crazy concert. I perfer the danzig era honestly but graves seems to be a pretty good and humble dude in this interview.
Michale Graves will always be a better songwriter, and singer than Danzig and especially Jerry Only. While I'm here, Doyle is one of the worst guitar players in the business.
@@vivimos_en_una_sociedad7758 exactly especially November coming fire by Samhain Danzig’s band after the Misfits but before the band that had his name, that album was Danzig at his best song writing wise
What saddens me is that I read an interview of Doyle from some years ago where he says that looking back at the Graves era, listening back those two albums, he "realized" they were shit, that the music they wrote without Danzig was shit.

I met him at Scout Bar in Houston. An awesome and humble dude for sure.
Michale is an incredible guy. We opened for him in flagstaff, Az. We talked for a long while, I’ve seen him and we opened for him many times. He’s always been amazing. I told him I worked for special needs kids and he was impressed, so impressed he gave me his personal number and email. I never thought my hugest punk inspiration would do that
I would rather meet Mike than Glenn. I know mike will be real. Glenn "made" great music and is legendary but i like my people woth souls.
I met Michale myself. His music has had such a positive impact on my life, that I told him briefly how he affected me and how he was sort of there for me. Whether it was life, work, the gym.

That's funny because the DOYLE releases are complete garbage.
It is absolutely possible to love both eras of the Misfits, and quite frankly Famous Monsters is an incredible album.
I've always been a danzig loyalist... but I came across a video of Graves playing dig up her bones solo acoustic, it was really incredible. Gained a lot of respect for this man, his soul singing, playing guitar, and just who he is. Much respect Michale, theres a lot of fans and fiends that still care. Great interview.
Listen to him doing Saturday night acoustic....awesome.
Yeah he's a good dude and humble. Doyle kinda pissed me off.
Yup.....screw everyone calling him a proud boy how he votes
If static age was never released and me being a Danzig fanboy American psycho would be my favorite misfits record. Graves is severely underrated and gets kicked down to much. Bless Graves heart and his music if it wasn’t Graves era misfits then I wouldn’t look into “real punk”. Thank you Eric for giving us these interviews and hope to see more from you and Graves.
real punk? lol

Agreed…..it’s a joke now, and a tiring one too.
So I'm a HUGE Graves era fan.

And I hope one day to see you reunite with the misfits.
Wow...now that's a good dude. Much love and respect. Love that story. Proves Mr. Graves is a genuine humble good dude. A+++
Famous Monsters was a masterpiece.
Thank you Michael for all you did! This coming from a huge Danzig fan. You were the perfect man for the time for the job!
Famous Monsters will always be the quintessential misfits album for me. I don’t care what anyone says.
I agree!! I feel the same way!
Same for me!
Same, phenemenal record
I don't understand why it got hated on
That’s ok we are aware that stupid people are real
Yasgm 77 lol!
First interview I've ever seen of Graves. I like this Man!
I’m so glad I got to see the graves era a couple times. Great shows one the the best was GWAR opening up for the misfits.
I meet Graves in maine , he played an acoustic version of monsters . At a little pub called the pilots cove . I got to talk to him for a few and gave him a hug told him how much his old as well as his new music means to me . GRAVES IS THE MISFITS . I have so much respect , for thus man .

He's such a cool guy and his voice is unbelievable. Better than Danzig's voice in my opinion. I'd love to see him perform someday!
He does go on tour! He covers some of the famous monster songs too!
I saw him solo and it was amazing! If you have a chance don’t pass it up. He was so nice and sincere. Hung out with the crowd after signing anything taking photos and just talking.
Micheal Graves seriously creative and intelligent

How does this channel only have 10K subscribers?!?!?!? Eric interviews some of the most legendary people in music...
This is an awesome interview with Michale... I haven't seen any interviews of him where he felt this comfortable to really open up on a lot of shit he spoke about and got very personal...
Personally love both era's, even though they are very different.

He was a misfits employee after he left in 1998 or whenever
Jason newstead could relate.
Graves deserve the world because he understands that a band isn’t a suppose to be a band it’s suppose to be a family. I’m starting and told my band mates that we still have morals like graves. Huge graves fan for life. Famous monsters is so awesome
First i just though that michale just entered to misfits to replace the singer rol, then i discovered that he wrote their most iconic songs
I listened to the misfits when i was in middle school but it wasnt until the graves albums that became a diehard misfits fan.
Danzig was great but graves era had a much harder edge that i liked more
Although I’ll always prefer Danzig over Graves, the Misfits were taken to new heights with Graves then they were with Danzig
September 11, 2001...the day that the American government declared war on her own people. Thank you for acknowledging this Mr. Graves.
I like how Jerry only will admit that they put too much pressure on michale but Doyle just talks shit
Eric_Grant_Swisher that’s because Regardless of what people think of Jerry Only, he’s a class act and always has been .doyle and Danzig have always been dicks. .

Jerry's Misfits peaked with Michale, Doyle and Chud, that has nothing to do with Glenn's Misfits.
Kinda sad too say but your kinda right
I like his creepy eye......I saw his lineup once. But I dug his stuff.
He has nothing to be shameful about. He really brought it.
seems like a good dude.no ego.he did what all musicians aim to do and realized the endgame isnt for him.dont blame him for getting out of it
I love Graves era.
I went to one of his shows before the pandemic and he came out after the show and met with the crowd.
He didn't charge money to hang out, he took pictures and signed autographs for free.
Danzig has always been a narcissist and it really makes him unlikable, he treats the fan base like we're jerks.
Probably why he got knocked out after his show...lol
This guy is amazing
I love Misfits. I came into them during the Graves era and I love both Graves and Danzig. Sucks to hear that Doyle hates the Graves era as I think there is some quality stuff there.
Graves era just as good better in some ways. Graves is a badass singer
Always wanted to hear Michael sing "I know a little" from Skynyrd.
Mr.graves is still the shit!! and I miss him these years!!!
The last part was so accurate omg
He's not wrong
He forshadowing 2020
I love his vocals.
He's right. We've been separated into small groups that are all against each other. All the makings of a civil war and no more America. 😔

The best voice Misfits had.
he spoke very well here I have a better understanding of him as a person with this interview I was a little skeptical wen I seen him on info wars but now I kindle think he's legit when he speaks on these types of topics talked about on that platform
I gotta pick the Danzig era myself. HOWEVER, "Saturday night" absolutely jams. In fact, a lot of my fav songs happened under the graves era.
Graves is a cool dude
I first got into Graves when i was I middle school and didnt know that there was soneone before until later in my HS when ibgor more into hardcore punk rock
I never liked Misfits until Graves become the front man. There is only Famous Monsters and American Psycho.
For anyone whose spelling his name wrong lol
Its Michale Graves💋🖤
awesome.
Love this guy! Ghoulish sounding yet deep, compared to his band of muscle meatheads. They let go a real gem🤙
Wish Michale Graves never happened to the Misfits
I love this guy. It's a damn shame he couldn't share his political views or shave his head without bein labeled a nazi. He's almost 50, his hair is prolly damaged so he shaves it. Let the man live his life
Sorry too say it but the graves era of the Misfits was the last stand they had.The band was at its new peak with Michael in the band too bad they didnt respect him.
You have Motörhead as your profile pic. Clearly a man of culture 🙂
Is he saying misfits was forcing him to sell out? So sad, they had so much potential!!
Talented genius
I'd like to see Izzy stradlin and Michale Graves do a couple albums
I like what he said about people disagreeing. I think he is speaking of liberals completely. They are so intolerant.
I have a feeling it was a combination of thi gs with him leaving the band. Lots of pressure on him to outdo Danzig and carry the band, yet he was either treated, or felt like it was not his band despite 2 great albums.You will hear different sides from Jerry and Doyle on it, but on stage I could see the slight hostility towards Graves, but maybe 9/11 shook him up, and he's either way too sensitive, or did not care for the rock star scene. Who knows. The man is very insightful and a deep thinker.
Graves song writing was amazing. It’s a shame they took such advantage of him
I hate sayin woke , but Graves surely is .
yah he said it without saying it. I picked up on that too.
Uh...well...
Man... sometimes, as fans, people can really see what would be the best move for bands, but when there are deeper problems between the members, it sucks for us and it’s bad for them. Bands ruin their careers over petty BS.
Misfits when Graves was kicked out
Mudvayne with whatever happened...
The White Stripes when they split up
Killssitch Engage when Howard left
Gallows when Frank left
Pantera with Phil and Dimebag’s fight
As I Lay Dying when Tim went to Prison
Blink 182 when Tom left
It happens all the time. Good bands destroyed over stupid shit. And who suffers? The fans.
Graves left the band because he couldn't stand Jerry Only.
Jakub Marszałek no he didn’t. He didn’t want to go to South America for a tour so jerry only kicked him out
@@antguy-superheroextraordin7835 he and Chud walked off the stage during one of Misfits gigs
Tom Delonge has completely lost the plot these days, but yeah Blink will never be same without his writing and vocals.
@@antguy-superheroextraordin7835 Funnily enough Michale Graves did a South American tour recently, also where did u get that info?
Bruiser is an amazingly unrrated movie
best vocalist ever and a fucking awesome guy it seems like with a working brain..!
Famous Monsters ruled, I’m upset that Michale didn’t get more time on vocals
He didn’t say he only showed up one day of filming with George ramero they had a fan cut his hair an dress up like him days he wasn’t there
He did address it in another interview I don’t remember which one but basically said he regrets it and he understood now that he was young and dumb.
citing dave mustaine? believeable but a tad ironic that he didnt have any other person to cite other than Peter Steele
Michale is on that Infowars trip towards the end. I love it. Graves is the truth!
Wasn't expecting this to turn into 9/11 truther stuff, but that's pretty cool.
Jerry Only err I mean "The Misfits", seem to enjoy running off all legendary singers.
I wish Mike had been able to stick it out as I loved his era of the band and they were a lot of fun to see live!. Once Graves, Doyle and Chud left I lost all interest in anything Jerry was doing!.
I wanted to hate Devil’s Rain.. But I just can’t. It’s actually chock-full of great tunes. Jerry may have treated graves like shit, along with Doyle, but I still have a certain appreciation for him for soldiering on with that band.
Gravessays they didn't pay him then says money, houses,girls were there. ??So misfits treated him like shit or treated him well?
Dude this guy is a phenomenal vocalist! And everyone giving him shit! Total bullshit!
People can't over the fact that's he's conservative. That's the only reason most of them are talking shit.
On the cover of the video, he always make that face.
Although I prefer Danzig led Misfits, anyone dissing Graves for how he votes or him being Conservative aint PUNK! All Yall calling Graves a "proud boy" should be ASHAMED!!!!
Graves seems more approachable than Danzig without getting punched in the face
I really didn't like his albums , but i did see him play live in atlanta on tour with GWAR , it was a crazy concert. I perfer the danzig era honestly but graves seems to be a pretty good and humble dude in this interview.
Like #369 lol kinda cool
Im the 667th view,feels bad to mess up that 666 though
bro just buy a second mic
6:20
Imagine if he were talking about todays situation... He would be canceled instantaneously and ridiculed left and right. How true this is.
What are your thoughts about 9/11 *without using one huge rambling sentence.
Inside job. Fold a 20 dollar bill.and a 50 or 10
Icon seems like hyperbole
Man he lost his hair, rocking the old man hair only growing on the sides :(
lol im guessing you're like 15. welcome to the reality of growing up buddy, and don't worry, most people actually don't give a shit :)
He has conflicting ideologies, considers himself a conservative and a trump supporter. trump supporters are not "conservative."
You aren't in The Misfits, you are in Jerry Only's band. 🤷
Michale Graves will always be a better songwriter, and singer than Danzig and especially Jerry Only. While I'm here, Doyle is one of the worst guitar players in the business.
Bruh danzigs writing kicks grave's ass a million times. Also now graves sounds like ass live
@@vivimos_en_una_sociedad7758 exactly especially November coming fire by Samhain Danzig’s band after the Misfits but before the band that had his name, that album was Danzig at his best song writing wise
😆
Graves is a better human being than Danzig
" The Legend" lol
I can’t stand people who “love” our country... and don’t enlist or commission.
I thought he served in the Marines
Good for you. No one cares, and not everyone is suited to a military career.
@@davidonzahwah3777 He did.
3:15 😂
Such a fucking a class goof
