Rock Reviews by Gregory Sandow
Danzig: I wouldn't quite call them evil, but at the Country Club on
Friday night this band gave off spooky, even disturbing vibes. When ex-punk
Glenn Danzig worked the crowd, you'd think of what he sings in "Possession:"
"I want to crawl inside your soul, nestle in your brain." Except that
democratically, he seemed to be inviting them to join him in doing that
to others.
And the band can play. Drummer Chuck Biscuits laid down a beat like
the living dead on a rock-hard trampoline, while guitarist John Christ
fired what could have been the opening salvos of an invasion by fanatics
from beneath the Earth.
Don't believe the respectful music you'll hear on Danzig's Def
American album. If the four guys in this band - let's not forget bassist
Eerie Von - don't become hard rock anti-heroes in 1989, Nite Flash will
flee in dismay to the day shift.
