Trash/Thrash Tuesdays – Fiend Club – The Misfits

themisfits

Well it’s time for another Trash/Thrash installment which means two in a row and it also means I didn’t get drunk, fall over and forget. So far, so good. So if you didn’t think a song about undead fellatio was trashy enough for your ear holes then holy shit do I have a treat for you this week. This definitely falls under the Trash category because this song is awful and so are the Misfits. I mean yeah we all like loved the Misfits or whatever back in the day, but there’s something so passé about rocking the Crimson Ghost in any seriousness. Sometimes, it’s okay to just let things die out. Legends become legends for a reason, and are you really that legendary if you keep trotting out a shitty album or farewell tour every year? I’m looking in your meth freaked direction Al Jourgensen. You’re next, you addled ass fuck.
Anyways this song is so groan worthy that it was the only Misfits song I would skip every time, even when I was fourteen. So here we have it kids, Fiend Club. The lyrics don’t make any fucking sense. Please tell me, Jerry Only, what’s evil all of the time? It’s hilarious to me that Jerry Only and his school of whoa, and Danzig looking Guts Cassidy and the Sundance Cheeseburger claim to be “evil” and yet they have spent much of the last 25 years in a “legacy of brutality” squabbling over Misfits legal tender like little girls in a sandbox fighting over dollies. One of that pair needs to go Varg Vikernes on the other and prove who is really evil once and for all. Also, how evil can you really be when your claim to fame is slapping skulls on fake fucking ugg boots for white trash to wear. If you really want to be considered evil you need to fuck off to the woods and read fortunes in goat remains and listen to Merzbow. Pussy fucking shit.

We won’t pretend that this is the end
We’re not losers all of the time
We march and we fall
We’re one and for all
It’s just evil all of the time…
All the time…

We are the fiend club
We are the fiend club
We are the fiend club
Not you! Not you!

You dress so messed up
Your hair is too long
But I’m changing all of the time
We march and we fall
We’re one and for all
It’s just evil all of the time
All of the time
Evil all the time

We are the fiend club
We are the fiend club
We are the fiend club
Not you! Not you!

We are the fiend club

All that said however, this video below is the best danzig song I’ve ever heard.

  1. True fucking story – Jerry and Doyle were playing some demos of their “Newfits” material for Dee Dee Ramone.
    Dee Dee responded thusly, “You know, you guys have those carpenter jobs with your dad. You might want to just stick with that.”

    • Sounds about right. The Misfits should have really just been left in the past a long time ago and allowed to just have the legend status instead of being dragged through the mud all these years like they have been
