Danzig Lyrics Compiled... and Illustrated

Posted in Off Topic

Dark rock icon Glenn Danzig – of the original Misfits, Samhain and his own legendary solo project – just issued an update at his official site advertising the release of Hidden Lyrics of the Left Hand, a new book which compiles the words to many of his classic songs, complete with sexually sinister illustrations by celebrated comic artist Simon Bisley. Find out more about this creepy collection on the other side!

Many of the lyrics contained in Left Hand have never seen official publication before now, much less with beautiful artwork accompanying each song, created by noted UK artist Bisley – who worked on DC Comics series like Lobo and the Batman/Judge Dredd crossover Judgment on Gotham, and also painted the covers to several of Glenn's albums including 6:66 Satan's Child and the 2007 compilation The Lost Tracks of Danzig. Bisley completed his visual contributions in summer of '09, and the book was originally slated for release last December, but publication was temporarily delayed.

The book now sells for $24.95 through Danzig's official site, and is also available at comic shops and independent record stores. Check it out!
