Mickey Leigh talks about Joey Ramone | Frumess
Mickey Leigh talks about his brother Joey Ramone, Johnny Ramones and the Ramones as a whole with Jeff Frumess.JOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc He wasn’t your typical frontman. Tall, gangly, shy, and plagued by obsessive-compulsive disorder, Joey Ramone was never meant to be a rock star. But his vulnerability, authenticity, and unforgettable voice became the soul of a movement. As the lead singer of The Ramones, Joey didn’t just help invent punk rock—he gave it its heart.Born Jeffrey Ross Hyman in 1951 in Queens, New York, Joey grew up immersed in 1960s rock, glam, and bubblegum pop. When he joined forces with Johnny, Dee Dee, and Tommy Ramone in 1974, the world wasn’t ready for what they were about to unleash. The Ramones played loud, fast, and short—songs stripped to the bone, driven by a beat you couldn’t ignore. But it was Joey’s distinct voice—half sneer, half croon—that gave the band a strange beauty.Joey’s look—leather jacket, dark sunglasses, ripped jeans, and long black hair—became a uniform for generations of punks. But beyond the image was an artist who channeled his anxiety, outsider status, and love for melody into songs that connected across borders and backgrounds.From iconic tracks like “Blitzkrieg Bop”, “I Wanna Be Sedated”, and “Rockaway Beach” to deeper cuts like “Danny Says” and “Poison Heart”, Joey delivered both rage and vulnerability. His lyrics often reflected the pain of alienation and the thrill of rebellion, all with a sense of humor that set The Ramones apart.Despite the band’s foundational role in punk history, they were rarely commercially successful during their time. Internal tensions, especially between Joey and Johnny, defined much of the band’s later years. But Joey stayed committed to the music, even when it didn’t make him rich or comfortable. He was punk before it was a brand—and long after it became one.After being diagnosed with lymphoma, Joey began working on a solo album. He passed away on April 15, 2001, just shy of 50. His posthumous solo album, Don’t Worry About Me, was released the following year, featuring a poignant cover of “What a Wonderful World.”Joey Ramone was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2002 with the other Ramones. A block of East 2nd Street in NYC is now named Joey Ramone Place—a tribute to the outsider who gave voice to misfits everywhere.🎸 Joey’s legacy isn’t just in the records—it’s in every garage band, every kid in a leather jacket, and every voice that dares to sing even when it shakes.

The Paul McCartney & Elvis Costello Demos | Frumess
In 1987, Paul McCartney invited Elvis Costello to write songs together. Over a series of sessions, they created a body of work from which both artists pulled selections for various albums over the years. The songs written by this partnership were used to augment their own individual work, filling in cracks when either member needed a different voice or perspective while creating the story of a complete album.JOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc What happens when one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th century partners with one of the sharpest lyricists of the punk and new wave era? Between 1987 and 1990, Paul McCartney and Elvis Costello teamed up in a brief but electrifying songwriting partnership that echoed the magic of Lennon-McCartney while carving out its own distinct legacy. Though often overshadowed by McCartney’s Beatles past, this collaboration stands as one of the most inspired pairings in modern music history.After the death of John Lennon, McCartney continued his solo career with success, but many fans felt he lacked the dynamic creative tension that once made his Beatles material so legendary. Enter Elvis Costello, a critically acclaimed singer-songwriter known for his razor-sharp lyrics, wit, and genre-blending approach to music. In 1987, McCartney invited Costello to collaborate—and the result was a creative spark that drew comparisons to Paul’s partnership with Lennon.Working together in studio sessions—just two voices, two guitars, and notebooks full of ideas—McCartney and Costello wrote nearly a dozen songs. The chemistry was instant. Costello’s biting lyricism challenged McCartney to dig deeper emotionally, while McCartney’s melodic mastery added warmth and balance to Costello’s edge. The dynamic created a fresh, modern take on traditional pop songwriting, infused with punk-era honesty and classic McCartney hooks.Songs from their sessions would appear on McCartney’s 1989 album Flowers in the Dirt, including standout tracks like “My Brave Face,” “That Day Is Done,” “Don’t Be Careless Love,” and “You Want Her Too.” Costello also recorded his own versions of the co-written songs, including the hit single “Veronica” on his 1989 album Spike. Their demo recordings—many of which were later released on the 2017 reissue of Flowers in the Dirt—offer a raw, stripped-down glimpse of their creative process.Although the partnership was brief, it was incredibly productive. However, creative tensions emerged. Costello’s confrontational style—pushing Paul to return to more minimalist production and raw emotion—clashed with McCartney’s polished studio habits. Still, both men acknowledged the power of their songwriting chemistry. McCartney called the collaboration “a return to roots,” and Costello has said that their writing sessions remain among the most fruitful of his career.While McCartney ultimately opted to work with multiple producers and co-writers for his final album, the material co-written with Costello remains a high point in his post-Beatles catalog. Critics praised the songs for their lyrical depth and melodic strength—proof that the former Beatle still had plenty to say and a perfect creative foil to bring it out.

Nick Cave talks about being mistaken for Nicolas Cage | Frumess
Nic Cage says he gets mistaken for you. Does Nick Cave get mistaken for Nic Cage?FRUMESS is POWERED by www.riotstickers.com/frumessJOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc Nick Cave & Nicolas Cage – A Deep Friendship Between Rock & Cinema’s Darkest IconsOne is a brooding gothic rock poet. The other, a boundary-breaking actor known for eccentric roles and emotional intensity. Together, Nick Cave and Nicolas Cage form one of the most unexpected and compelling friendships in modern culture. This video explores the personal and creative bond between these two icons, their shared tragedies, mutual admiration, and how their artistic worlds continue to overlap.Nick Cave, the Australian musician, novelist, and screenwriter, rose to fame with The Birthday Party before forming Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds—a band that fused post-punk, gothic rock, blues, and narrative-driven songwriting. Cave’s lyrics often explore grief, violence, faith, and redemption, earning him a cult following and recognition as one of the greatest lyricists of his generation.Nicolas Cage, an Oscar-winning actor, is known for a filmography that spans the experimental and the mainstream—from Leaving Las Vegas to Mandy to The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent. Like Cave, Cage’s work is raw, risk-taking, and often misunderstood. Beneath his surreal performances is a genuine emotional vulnerability that mirrors Cave’s music.The two met in Los Angeles in the early 2000s, developing a friendship based on mutual respect, shared artistic sensibilities, and personal tragedy. Both men suffered the loss of their sons—Cave’s son Arthur in 2015 and Cage’s son Jethro in 2022. These unimaginable losses deepened their connection and added a layer of spiritual resonance to their conversations, often centered around grief, mortality, and creation.Their friendship became public knowledge through various interviews, and in 2022, Nick Cave even hosted Nicolas Cage as a guest in his live Q&A tour, “In Conversation.” The two sat on stage for an intimate discussion, fielding questions from fans about life, art, and death. What emerged was a deeply human exchange that showed both men in vulnerable, reflective modes—revealing the powerful connection between music and film, performance and emotion.Cage has also appeared in multiple documentaries and interviews expressing his admiration for Cave’s music and writing, often referencing Bad Seeds albums like Skeleton Tree and Ghosteen as deeply meaningful. Likewise, Cave has spoken about Cage’s fearlessness and unique approach to performance, calling him “a true artist.”Their connection also reaches beyond conversation. Cave and longtime collaborator Warren Ellis composed the score for the 2021 Cage-starring western “The Proposition,” directed by Cave’s frequent creative partner John Hillcoat. Their artistic synergy is rooted in mood, intensity, and emotional truth.

Reddit: I've Been Pretending That I know how to Play Guiter for 30 years | Frumess
I’ve been “playing” guitar for over thirty years. All my friends know me as the guitar guy. I have thousands of dollars worth of gear. I know all kinds of music theory. I can’t play guitar.FRUMESS is POWERED by www.riotstickers.com/frumessJOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc This isn’t my main account so I can hide my shame from my friends. I’ve had guitars hanging on my wall since I was 15 years old. I own four acoustic and six electric guitars, plus a ton of pedals amps, etc.I give out guitar playing advice on forums, but it’s just stuff I’ve read or I google the problem and give the AI answer. I’d much rather sit and watch guitar tutorials or music theory videos than actually practice.I know what scales are but I don’t know any. I know what modes and triads are but I don’t know any. I can play maybe three chords, but not well. I like the feeling of making music on the guitar but I also hate practicing.At this point, it’s part of my identity and everyone assumes I’m accomplished when they find out how long I’ve been “playing”. I always come up with some excuse on the rare occasion that someone asks me to play something. I’m terrified for anyone to hear me play because my secret will be revealed, instantly.I’m in my late forties, and I’m fully aware that the fantasy of being famous and playing on the stage for thousands of people is far behind me. If I ever did become proficient, it would just be for my own gratification.I do this with all my hobbies. I spend a bunch of money, get lots of gear and never do anything with it. I own four sets of juggling balls and can’t juggle. I own a weaving set and have never completed a project. I’ve been trying to learn Spanish but don’t remember any of the vocab. I don’t know what’s broken in my brain; I’m fairly intelligent and have a tech savvy job. I should be able to learn these things.I know the obvious advice is to try another instrument or give it up. However, I really do like the idea of playing guitar and I’m not willing to give the hobby up. Removing this part of my identity would feel like killing part of who I am. Maybe today will be the day I start practicing, but I doubt it.Anyway, I’m a fake and a liar and I just wanted to get that off my chest.Edit: I’ll summarize the most commented responses since I have read everything.You have ADHD.Give up and sell your gear.Just practice.Don’t be a little bitch.Everything is AI, including this post.Take physical lessons for accountability.Lying is bad, mmmkay?It’s ok to be a collector.

What is Horror Punk? Opening (the other) Vaults within the Frumess Archive
It's time. What is Horror Punk? It is time to open (the other) vaults within the Frumess archive.FRUMESS is POWERED by www.riotstickers.com/frumessJOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc Horror punk is a music genre that mixes punk rock and 1950s-influenced doo-wop and rockabilly sounds with morbid and violent imagery and lyrics which are often influenced by horror films and science fiction B-movies. The genre was pioneered by the Misfits in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Subsequent bands formed in the Misfits' wake like Mourning Noise, the Undead and Samhain, solidifying horror punk's first wave. In the late 1990s and early 2000s the genre gained attention through the reunion of the Misfits and success of groups like AFI, Son of Sam and the Murderdolls. This popularity continued to the modern day with Blitzkid, Calabrese and Creeper.Horror punk is defined by its fusion of punk rock music with the imagery and lyrical topics common in the horror film genre. Typically it references B movies, doing so in a way that emphasises cheesiness. However, some artists and songs in the genre also discuss events of real life horror. Due to this, horror punk generally eschews the political lyrics found in conventional punk rock. The genre also asserts the influence of 1950s–inspired doo-wop and rockabilly sounds.Horror punk is a subgenre of punk rock that blends the raw energy of early punk music with macabre, horror-inspired themes and imagery. Born in the late 1970s, horror punk took punk’s anti-establishment spirit and fused it with a love for B-movies, classic monster flicks, the occult, and gothic style — creating a sound and aesthetic that’s remained both underground and iconic for decades.💀 The Birth of Horror Punk: The Misfits and the 1970sHorror punk was pioneered by The Misfits, formed in 1977 by Glenn Danzig in Lodi, New Jersey. Blending 1950s rock 'n' roll melodies with fast, raw punk aggression, the Misfits introduced the genre with songs like "Last Caress," "Where Eagles Dare," "Skulls," and "Halloween." Their use of skull motifs, crimson ghost imagery, and horror movie themes gave birth to a subculture that blurred the line between music and monster fandom.🦇 The 1980s & Samhain: Danzig’s Dark EvolutionAfter The Misfits broke up in 1983, Glenn Danzig went on to form Samhain, a band that took horror punk to even darker places. Samhain slowed down the tempo, deepened the atmosphere, and introduced occult and gothic influences into the horror punk framework. Albums like Initium and November-Coming-Fire became cult classics, influencing gothic metal, doom, and even black metal’s later visual style.🧟♂️ The 1990s: A New Wave of Horror PunkThe 1990s saw a Misfits reunion without Danzig — featuring Michale Graves on vocals — helping to push horror punk back into mainstream punk awareness with albums like American Psycho and Famous Monsters. New bands also emerged like The Undead (founded by ex-Misfits guitarist Bobby Steele), 45 Grave, and Screaming Dead in the UK.

Best known for his time in The Misfits (1978-1980) and later as the founder of The Undead, Steele’s career has been defined by his raw, aggressive playing style, horror-infused songwriting, and dedication to DIY punk ethics. Over four decades, Steele has remained a cult figure in punk rock, influencing countless bands with his dark, fast, and hard-hitting sound.🎸 Bobby Steele & The Misfits (1978-1980) – Defining Horror PunkIn 1978, Bobby Steele joined The Misfits, bringing his sharp, biting guitar style to the band just as they were developing their signature horror aesthetic. This era saw The Misfits transition from a raw garage punk sound into the early foundations of horror punk, with Steele’s fast, power-chord-driven approach helping to solidify the band’s aggressive edge.During his time with The Misfits, Steele played on some of the band’s most iconic early recordings, including:"Horror Business" (1979)"Night of the Living Dead" (1979)"Halloween" (1980)"Where Eagles Dare" (1980)Sessions for the unreleased 12 Hits from HellSteele’s guitar work was essential in giving these tracks their raw, menacing sound, blending classic rock ‘n’ roll influences with faster, darker punk energy.However, tensions within the band led to Steele being fired in 1980, reportedly due to conflicts with Glenn Danzig and Jerry Only. His replacement, Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein, was brought in to re-record many of Steele’s parts, which later led to controversy over credits on 12 Hits from Hell, an album that was ultimately shelved.🔥 The Undead (1980-Present) – Bobby Steele’s Own Horror Punk LegacyFollowing his departure from The Misfits, Steele formed The Undead in 1980, bringing a more melodic but still aggressive approach to horror punk. Unlike The Misfits’ B-movie camp aesthetic, The Undead mixed horror themes with a darker, grittier street punk energy.The Undead’s debut EP, 9 Toes Later (1982), became an instant underground classic, featuring fan-favorite tracks like:"When the Evening Comes""A Life of Our Own""I Want You Dead"Steele’s ability to blend catchy hooks with sinister, horror-tinged punk helped The Undead stand out in the early ‘80s New York punk scene, alongside bands like The Cramps, The Ramones, and The Damned.Over the years, The Undead has released numerous albums, including:Act Your Rage (1989)Dawn of the Undead (1991)Still Undead After All These Years (2007)The Morgue… The Merrier (2011)Act Your Rage… Again (2024)Despite countless lineup changes, Steele has remained the driving force behind The Undead, keeping the band active and continuing to tour.

What's up with Glenn Danzig and the Black Sun? | Frumess
What's up with this Glenn Danzig Black Sun controversy? Here is my subjective perspective.FRUMESS is POWERED by www.riotstickers.com/frumessJOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc Glenn Danzig is one of the most iconic and influential figures in punk, metal, and horror-themed music history. From his early days as the founder of the Misfits to his genre-blending work in Samhain and ultimately his solo career with the band Danzig, his dark vision and distinctive baritone voice have left an indelible mark on underground and mainstream music alike.Glenn Anzalone, better known by his stage name Glenn Danzig, was born on June 23, 1955, in Lodi, New Jersey. In 1977, he founded The Misfits, a band that merged punk energy with horror movie themes, effectively giving birth to the genre now known as horror punk. With his Elvis-meets-Jim-Morrison vocal style and the Misfits’ shocking lyrics and visual aesthetic, Danzig created a subcultural movement. Songs like “Last Caress,” “Die, Die My Darling,” and “Where Eagles Dare” became underground classics. The skull logo and Crimson Ghost imagery are instantly recognizable symbols in punk culture to this day.After leaving the Misfits in 1983 due to creative differences and internal tension, Danzig formed Samhain, a darker, more gothic band that blurred the lines between punk, deathrock, and heavy metal. Samhain explored more occult and mythological themes, foreshadowing the direction Danzig would take as an artist. Albums like Initium (1984) and November-Coming-Fire (1986) remain cult classics for their innovation and eerie tone.In 1987, Samhain evolved into Danzig, Glenn’s eponymous band that truly launched him into mainstream metal success. Working with producer Rick Rubin, Danzig released his breakthrough album Danzig in 1988, which included the hit “Mother”—a rebellious anthem that helped push the band into MTV rotation and earned radio success years after its initial release. The Danzig band leaned fully into heavy metal and blues influences while maintaining the dark lyrical themes Glenn had long been known for.Beyond music, Glenn Danzig has also been active in other creative outlets. He founded Verotik, an adult-oriented comic book publishing company, and directed the cult horror film Verotika in 2019, followed by Death Rider in the House of Vampires in 2021. His passion for horror and the occult has remained consistent across all mediums.Though Glenn Danzig has been known for his abrasive persona and strong opinions, his legacy is undeniable. He helped shape three major underground music movements—punk, deathrock/goth, and doom-laden heavy metal—while cultivating one of the most fiercely loyal fanbases in rock history.

Emerging in the 1970s, punk was a raw, fast, and rebellious response to the excess of mainstream rock. With its DIY ethos, anti-establishment lyrics, and stripped-down sound, punk became the voice of misfits, outcasts, and revolutionaries.The Birth of Punk RockThe origins of punk rock can be traced back to garage rock bands of the ‘60s, like The Stooges, MC5, and The Sonics, who laid the foundation for the genre's aggressive sound. However, the punk explosion happened in the mid-1970s with bands like:The Ramones (USA) – Their 1976 self-titled album, featuring "Blitzkrieg Bop" and "Judy Is a Punk," introduced the world to fast, loud, and simple punk rock.Sex Pistols (UK) – Songs like "Anarchy in the U.K." and "God Save the Queen" defined the UK punk movement with a raw and provocative edge.The Clash (UK) – Mixing punk with reggae and rock influences, their songs like "London Calling" and "White Riot" brought a more politically charged message to punk.The Damned (UK) – Released New Rose in 1976, often considered the first UK punk single.Iconic Punk Rock Songs That Defined a GenerationPunk rock is packed with legendary anthems that still resonate today. Here are some of the most influential tracks:✅ "Blitzkrieg Bop" – The Ramones (1976) 🎸 The ultimate punk anthem with its catchy “Hey! Ho! Let’s go!” chant.✅ "Anarchy in the U.K." – Sex Pistols (1976) 🔥 A bold, defiant declaration against the system.✅ "London Calling" – The Clash (1979) 🌍 A revolutionary punk classic blending politics and urgency.✅ "California Über Alles" – Dead Kennedys (1979) ⚡ Satirical, sharp, and politically charged.✅ "Search and Destroy" – The Stooges (1973) 🚀 Proto-punk at its finest, with Iggy Pop’s raw energy.✅ "Rise Above" – Black Flag (1981) 💥 A hardcore punk anthem about resisting oppression.✅ "Where Eagles Dare" – Misfits (1979) 🦇 Horror punk meets raw aggression.✅ "Holiday in Cambodia" – Dead Kennedys (1980) 🏴 A brutal critique of Western privilege.✅ "Sonic Reducer" – Dead Boys (1977) ⚡ Pure teenage angst and rebellion.✅ "Complete Control" – The Clash (1977) 🎤 A classic middle finger to the music industry.The Evolution of Punk RockBy the early 1980s, punk had evolved into different subgenres:Hardcore punk – Bands like Black Flag, Minor Threat, and Bad Brains pushed punk to more aggressive levels.Post-punk – Groups like Joy Division, Siouxsie and the Banshees, and Gang of Four experimented with darker sounds.Pop punk – Bands like Green Day and The Offspring brought punk energy into the mainstream in the ‘90s.

Jello Biafra vs. Dead Kennedys - There is no band reunion amidst this Feud | Frumess
There was a phony article going around that Jello Biafra was going to reunite with East Bay Ray and Klaus Flouride to once again be The Dead Kennedys. It's not true, but why do the DKS have such beef? Let's examine some of the feud with this Jello Biafra interview about the legal case involving a lawsuit between band members.FRUMESS is POWERED by www.riotstickers.com/frumessJOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc The Dead Kennedys were one of the most influential punk bands of all time, blending politically charged lyrics with aggressive, fast-paced music that defined the hardcore punk scene of the late 1970s and 1980s. Formed in San Francisco in 1978, the band consisted of Jello Biafra (vocals), East Bay Ray (guitar), Klaus Flouride (bass), and Ted (Bruce Slesinger) on drums, later replaced by D.H. Peligro. Their music was a direct attack on corruption, hypocrisy, and the establishment, making them both loved and controversial.The Dead Kennedys released iconic albums such as Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables (1980), Plastic Surgery Disasters (1982), and Frankenchrist (1985). Songs like "Holiday in Cambodia," "California Über Alles," and "Kill the Poor" became anthems of rebellion. However, their radical messages often led to backlash, including the infamous obscenity trial over the Frankenchrist album, due to the inclusion of artist H.R. Giger’s controversial poster "Penis Landscape."Despite their success, internal conflicts began to emerge, particularly between Jello Biafra and the rest of the band. In 1986, Dead Kennedys disbanded, but their legacy endured. However, the band’s legal battles began in the late 1990s when East Bay Ray, Klaus Flouride, and D.H. Peligro sued Jello Biafra, accusing him of withholding royalties from their Alternative Tentacles label. The lawsuit ended in 2000 with Biafra losing the case, and the remaining members won rights to the Dead Kennedys’ name and music.Since then, Dead Kennedys have continued without Jello Biafra, touring with various singers, including Ron "Skip" Greer. Meanwhile, Biafra has remained a strong political voice, performing with his band Jello Biafra and the Guantanamo School of Medicine and speaking out on activism, censorship, and government corruption.The Jello Biafra vs. Dead Kennedys legal battle remains a sore point in punk history, raising questions about artistic integrity, band ownership, and the commercialization of punk rock. While some fans view the Dead Kennedys' continued performances as a cash grab, others appreciate hearing the classic songs live. What do you think? Was the lawsuit justified, or did it tarnish the band’s legacy?

Long Live David Johansen and The New York Dolls | Frumess
David Johansen has died, the last standing of the New York Dolls. It is a profound milestone in New York punk rock history.

Their mix of raw rock ‘n’ roll, gender-bending fashion, and reckless energy made them cult legends, influencing countless bands from The Ramones, Sex Pistols, and Guns N’ Roses to The Smiths and Hanoi Rocks. Though they never achieved mainstream commercial success, their impact on rock history remains undeniable.The Dolls took classic rock and roll influences like The Rolling Stones, The Stooges, The Shangri-Las, and Chuck Berry, but played louder, faster, and with an attitude that was decades ahead of its time. Their look—high heels, teased hair, lipstick, and tight leather pants—blurred the lines between gender, fashion, and rebellion, inspiring future glam and punk artists alike.In 1973, they released their debut album, New York Dolls, produced by Todd Rundgren. It featured:"Personality Crisis""Trash""Jet Boy""Looking for a Kiss"🔥 Too Much Too Soon (1974) – The Dolls Burn Brighter but Fall FasterTheir second album, Too Much Too Soon (1974), was produced by Shadow Morton, known for his work with The Shangri-Las. It featured:"Babylon""Stranded in the Jungle""Chatterbox"🔥 The Breakup & Aftermath (1975-1977) – The Birth of Punk RockIn 1975, Malcolm McLaren (later the manager of The Sex Pistols) briefly tried to reinvent the Dolls, dressing them in communist red outfits and promoting them with an extreme political edge. The experiment failed spectacularly, and the Dolls collapsed soon after.Johnny Thunders and Jerry Nolan left to form The Heartbreakers, while David Johansen pursued a solo career. Sylvain Sylvain also went solo, and Arthur Kane struggled with alcohol addiction, eventually leaving music behind.While the band faded into obscurity, their influence exploded. The punk movement of 1976-77 adopted the Dolls’ blueprint—raw, aggressive music, DIY attitude, and in-your-face style. Bands like The Sex Pistols, The Ramones, and The Damned all owed a huge debt to the Dolls.This led to a full-fledged comeback, with a new lineup featuring:David Johansen (vocals)Sylvain Sylvain (guitar)Steve Conte (guitar)Sami Yaffa (bass)Brian Delaney (drums)The reunion resulted in three new albums:One Day It Will Please Us to Remember Even This (2006)'Cause I Sez So (2009)Dancing Backward in High Heels (2011)🔥 The Undeniable Influence of the New York DollsThough their original run was short, the New York Dolls changed the course of rock history. Their sleazy, loud, high-energy rock ‘n’ roll directly inspired:Punk rock (The Ramones, Sex Pistols, The Clash, Dead Boys, The Damned)Glam rock (KISS, Hanoi Rocks, Guns N’ Roses, Poison, Mötley Crüe)Alternative rock (The Smiths, Manic Street Preachers, The Replacements)

As the frontman during the band’s controversial 1990s resurrection, Graves helped bring a new era of mainstream success to The Misfits, contributing to iconic albums like American Psycho and Famous Monsters. After The Misfits disbanded in 1983, bassist Jerry Only and guitarist Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein spent years attempting to regain control of the band’s name and legacy. After winning legal battles against Glenn Danzig, Only reformed The Misfits in 1995 with a new lineup, auditioning for a new lead singer. Enter Michale Graves, a young punk musician from New Jersey who impressed Only and Doyle with his powerful, theatrical vocals.In 1997, the new lineup released American Psycho, the first Misfits album in nearly 15 years. Featuring songs like "Dig Up Her Bones," "Resurrection," and "Shining," the album introduced a more polished, anthemic version of horror punk, blending punk with heavy metal-style riffs and a cartoonish horror aesthetic.The follow-up album, Famous Monsters (1999), became even more commercially successful, with tracks like "Scream!," "Helena," and "Saturday Night" showcasing Graves’ ability to deliver softer, more melodic horror ballads alongside high-energy punk anthems. During this time, The Misfits gained a new, younger fanbase, appearing on major tours, wrestling events (WCW), and even collaborating with horror director George A. Romero for the Bruiser soundtrack.Despite the success of Famous Monsters, tensions within the band grew between Graves and Jerry Only. In 2000, Graves quit the band mid-tour, citing internal conflicts and creative frustrations. Though he briefly returned in 2001, he soon left for good, leading to a tumultuous period for The Misfits, who eventually transformed into a new project with Only as the lead singer.Graves wasted no time launching his solo career, initially forming Gotham Road, a heavier, metal-leaning band. By 2005, he shifted to a solo acoustic and punk style, releasing albums like:Punk Rock Is Dead (2005)Return to Earth (2006)Illusions (2007) (featuring Damien Echols of the West Memphis Three)Vagabond (2013)🔥 Controversies and Political ViewsIn the 2010s, Michale Graves became a controversial figure due to his outspoken political beliefs and activism. His association with far-right and nationalist politics led to backlash from the punk community, with some promoters and venues canceling his shows. While he continued to perform and record, his reputation within horror punk became increasingly divisive, with many fans distancing themselves from his later work.

What is Glenn Danzig Singing About in Samhain? | The Misfits who Walked Among Us Episode 100 | Frumess
Frumess attempts to discuss, dissect, and extrapolate more of Glenn Danzig's Samhain lyrics.FRUMESS is POWERED bywww.riotstickers.com/frumessJOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!!https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc Glenn Danzig, the legendary frontman of The Misfits, carved his own path in music history by founding Samhain, a band that bridged the gap between horror punk and dark, gothic metal. After leaving The Misfits in 1983, Danzig sought to explore a heavier, more atmospheric sound that incorporated elements of punk, deathrock, and early doom metal. Samhain was born from this vision, and the band's music became a cult favorite, influencing later artists in both punk and metal genres.The Origins of SamhainNamed after the ancient Celtic festival of the dead, Samhain embodied a darker and more experimental tone than The Misfits. The band debuted with Initium (1984), an album that introduced eerie atmospheres, heavy guitars, and Danzig’s signature sinister vocals. Tracks like "Black Dream", "Horror Biz" (a reworked Misfits song), and "Macabre" showcased the band’s ability to blend punk energy with ominous, brooding melodies. The occult themes in Samhain’s lyrics set them apart, diving deeper into the supernatural and gothic than Danzig’s previous work.The Evolution of Samhain's SoundBy 1985, Samhain had solidified their cult following with "November-Coming-Fire", an album that leaned even further into dark punk and proto-metal territory. Songs like "Mother of Mercy", "To Walk the Night", and "Diabolos '88" featured heavier riffs, tribal drumming, and sinister lyricism that foreshadowed the emergence of Danzig’s future metal career. The lyrics often explored death, mythology, and personal darkness, adding to the band’s mystique.Samhain’s influence grew, but by 1986, the band was transitioning into something even greater. Their final release, "Samhain III: Final Descent" (1990), which was largely recorded before their dissolution, showed the full transformation from horror punk to dark heavy metal. Songs like "Unholy Passion" and "Death... In Its Arms" highlighted the band’s evolution into what would become Danzig’s self-titled band.The Lyrics and Themes of Samhain SongsSamhain’s lyrics carried occult symbolism, existential dread, and violent, poetic imagery. Songs like "Human Pony Girl" blurred the lines between surreal horror and obsession, while "Archangel" infused religious and mythological undertones with gothic storytelling. Many of these lyrical themes became foundational to Danzig’s later work, influencing his transition into a dark blues-metal hybrid.Samhain's Legacy and InfluenceThough Samhain only lasted a few years, their impact on gothic rock, horror punk, and metal remains undeniable. Their ominous atmosphere, shadowy aesthetic, and Danzig’s brooding vocals helped shape bands across multiple genres. While many fans still debate whether Samhain was an extension of The Misfits or a precursor to Danzig, the band stands as an important bridge in Glenn Danzig’s evolution as an artist.Despite disbanding, Samhain’s cult following only grew stronger over time.

Their self-titled debut album, released in 1976, introduced the world to their fast, stripped-down tracks like "Blitzkrieg Bop" and "Beat on the Brat," influencing countless bands and launching the punk rock movement. Despite critical acclaim, mainstream success often eluded them during their career, with their albums gaining a cult following rather than chart-topping status. Tracks like "Sheena Is a Punk Rocker," "I Wanna Be Sedated," and "Rock 'n' Roll High School" have since become anthems of punk culture. The band endured numerous lineup changes over their 22-year career. Marky Ramone replaced Tommy in 1978, with Richie and later C.J. Ramone joining in subsequent years. Despite internal conflicts, particularly between Joey and Johnny, the band continued to tour relentlessly, earning a reputation as one of the hardest-working bands in rock.

Inspired by his love for Halloween and Christmas, Burton wrote a poem about Jack Skellington, a character caught between two holidays. Directed by Henry Selick, with a screenplay by Caroline Thompson and music by Danny Elfman, the film was brought to life using stop-motion animation, a painstaking process requiring months to create just seconds of footage. Disney initially shelved the project, considering it too dark for a family audience, but later released it under its Touchstone Pictures banner. Synopsis The film follows Jack Skellington, the Pumpkin King of Halloween Town, who grows tired of the same annual routine. One day, he stumbles upon Christmas Town, a magical place filled with joy and warmth, and becomes obsessed with bringing Christmas to his spooky world. Jack enlists the residents of Halloween Town to help him take over the holiday, but their creepy interpretations—like kidnapping Santa Claus and replacing gifts with ghoulish items—lead to chaos. In the end, Jack learns to embrace his true identity, restoring Christmas and rekindling his love for Halloween. Legacy Although it was a moderate success at the box office, the film’s legacy has grown tremendously since its release. It is now considered a holiday classic, beloved by fans of all ages. The film's gothic aesthetic, memorable characters like Sally and Oogie Boogie, and Elfman’s hauntingly beautiful score have cemented its place in pop culture. Disney embraced the film’s popularity, incorporating it into theme parks and merchandise. Reception Critics initially praised the film’s innovative visuals and bold storytelling, though some found its tone unsettling for children. Over the years, it has garnered widespread acclaim, boasting a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Fans and critics alike admire its blend of macabre humor, heartfelt themes, and groundbreaking stop-motion animation. Today, The Nightmare Before Christmas continues to spark debate about whether it’s a Halloween or Christmas movie, which only adds to its timeless appeal.

Hailing from Cleveland, Ohio, and later based in New York City, the band was formed in 1976 by Stiv Bators (vocals), Cheetah Chrome (guitar), Jimmy Zero (guitar), Jeff Magnum (bass), and Johnny Blitz (drums). They were originally part of the Cleveland proto-punk scene, playing in a group called Rocket From The Tombs before evolving into The Dead Boys. Known for their raw energy, rebellious attitude, and boundary-pushing performances, The Dead Boys quickly gained attention in New York’s burgeoning punk scene, performing at iconic venues like CBGB. Their explosive live shows, led by Stiv Bators' outrageous stage antics, were a hallmark of their early years, cementing their reputation as one of the most dangerous and exciting punk acts of the era. In 1977, The Dead Boys released their debut album, “Young, Loud and Snotty,” which is considered a punk rock classic. Featuring aggressive, high-octane tracks like “Sonic Reducer” and “All This and More,” the album showcased their nihilistic ethos and raw musical talent. Produced by Genya Ravan, it became a defining record of the punk genre and remains influential to this day. The band followed up in 1978 with “We Have Come for Your Children,” which featured a slightly more polished sound but failed to replicate the impact of their debut. Internal tensions, management issues, and lack of commercial success led to the band’s breakup in 1979. Despite their brief initial run, The Dead Boys’ legacy endured. Stiv Bators went on to a successful solo career and later formed The Lords of the New Church. Tragically, Bators passed away in 1990, but his work with The Dead Boys continues to inspire punk musicians worldwide.

The film tells the story of how a warehouse owner, accompanied by his two employees, mortician friend and a group of teenage punks, deal with the accidental release of a horde of unkillable, brain-hungry zombies onto an unsuspecting town.[1][3][4] The film, described as a "mordant punk comedy,"[1] is known for introducing multiple popular concepts to the zombie genre: zombies eating specifically brains, as opposed to eating any form of human flesh; and zombies being invulnerable to a gunshot to the head.[5] Additionally, the film's soundtrack was noteworthy, as it featured several Los Angeles-based deathrock and punk rock bands of the era. The Return of the Living Dead released in the United States on August 16, 1985, by Orion Pictures. The film received critical acclaim and performed moderately well at the box office. It spawned four sequels.

The pop sound influenced acts such as Nirvana, Radiohead, the Smashing Pumpkins and Weezer. The Pixies are associated with the 1990s alternative rock boom, and draw on elements including punk rock and surf rock. Their music is known for dynamic "loud-quiet-loud" shifts and song structures. Francis is the primary songwriter; his often surreal lyrics cover offbeat subjects such as extraterrestrials, incest, and biblical violence.

In a statement to Rolling Stone, Lenchantin said that the choice was not hers and that her "departure [was] a bit of a surprise to [her] as it is to many". In a December 2020 interview, Ariel Pink intimated that he may never release another album due to contemporary social and political affairs, and wrote that he was "not thinking about making art at the moment."

Is Patrick Bateman imagining American Psycho? | Frumess
American Psycho is a 2000 satirical horror film directed by Mary Harron, who co-wrote the screenplay with Guinevere Turner. Based on the 1991 novel by Bret Easton Ellis, it stars Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman, a New York City investment banker who apparently leads a double life as a serial killer. Willem Dafoe, Jared Leto, Josh Lucas, Chloë Sevigny, Samantha Mathis, Cara Seymour, Justin Theroux, and Reese Witherspoon appear in supporting roles. The film blends horror and black comedy to satirize 1980s yuppie culture and consumerism, exemplified by Bateman. FRUMESS is POWERED by www.riotstickers.com/frumess JOIN THE PATREON FOR LESS THAN A $2 CUP OF COFFEE!! https://www.patreon.com/Frumess 📹 OR SUPPORT THIS CHANNEL, BUY A CUP OF COFFEE ☕ https://ko-fi.com/frumessfilmsllc Ellis considered his controversial novel unfilmable, but producer Edward R. Pressman was determined to adapt it and bought the film rights in 1992. Stuart Gordon, David Cronenberg, and Rob Weiss considered directing the film before Harron and Turner began writing the screenplay in 1996. They sought to make a 1980s period film that emphasized the novel's satire. The pre-production period was tumultuous; Harron chose Bale to play Bateman, but because distributor Lions Gate Films sought Leonardo DiCaprio in the role, Harron was fired and replaced with Oliver Stone. After Stone and DiCaprio left due to creative differences, Harron was rehired and allowed to cast Bale. Principal photography began in February 1999 in Toronto and New York City. American Psycho premiered at the Sundance Film Festival on January 21, 2000, and was theatrically released in the United States on April 14. The film received mostly positive reviews, with praise for Bale's performance and the screenplay, and grossed over $34 million on a $7 million budget. It has since developed a cult following and a strong presence in meme culture since the 2010s.[5] A direct-to-video sequel, American Psycho 2, was released in 2002, although it was critically panned and has little relation to the original. A new adaptation of the novel, directed by Luca Guadagnino, is currently in the works. American Psycho is a horror novel by American writer Bret Easton Ellis, published in 1991. The story is told in the first-person by Patrick Bateman, a wealthy, narcissistic, vain Manhattan investment banker who lives a double life as a serial killer. Alison Kelly of The Observer notes that while "some countries [deem it] so potentially disturbing that it can only be sold shrink-wrapped", "critics rave about it" and "academics revel in its transgressive and postmodern qualities".[3] A film adaptation starring Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman was released in 2000 to generally favorable reviews.[4] Producers David Johnson and Jesse Singer developed a musical adaptation[5] for Broadway. The musical premiered at the Almeida Theatre, London in December 2013.

It was also a box office success, and the film's post-apocalyptic and punk aesthetics helped popularise the genre in film and fiction writing. At the 10th Saturn Awards, the film won Best International Film and was nominated for five more awards: Best Director, Best Actor for Gibson, Best Supporting Actor for Bruce Spence, Best Writing, and Best Costumes for Norma Moriceau. Mad Max 2 is widely hailed as both one of the greatest action movies of all time and one of the greatest sequels ever made,[6] and fan clubs for the film and "road warrior"-themed activities continue into the 21st century. Preceded by Mad Max in 1979, the film was followed by Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome in 1985, Mad Max: Fury Road in 2015 and Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga in 2024.

The Decline: The Last Quarter-Century of NOFX in Their Own Words | SPIN | Frumess
The punk rock legends put a bow on their 40-plus-year career last weekend, but not before some interpersonal drama. Punk legends NOFX called it quits this weekend in front of 15,000 fans in San Pedro, Ca, with “Fat Mike” Burkett, Eric Melvin, Aaron “El Hefe” Abeyta, and Erik “Smelly” Sandin playing their final show. The story of their retirement isn’t a short explosive one, but a long, drawn-out saga spanning multiple decades and complicated relationships.

Bassist/lead vocalist Fat Mike, rhythm guitarist Eric Melvin and drummer Erik Sandin are original founding and longest-serving members of the band, who have appeared on every release by the band, although Sandin departed briefly in 1985, only to rejoin the following year.[1] El Hefe joined the band in 1991 to play lead guitar and trumpet, rounding out the best-known iteration of the lineup. NOFX's mainstream success coincided with increased interest in punk rock during the 1990s; unlike many of their contemporaries, however, they had never been signed to a major label. NOFX released fifteen studio albums, sixteen extended plays[2] and a number of 7" singles over a career spanning more than four decades. The band rose to popularity with their fifth studio album Punk in Drublic (1994), which is their only release to receive a gold certification by the RIAA.[3] Their fifteenth and final studio album, Double Album, was released on December 2, 2022. The group has sold over eight million records worldwide,[4] making them one of the most successful independent bands ever. In 2008, NOFX broadcast their own show on Fuse entitled NOFX: Backstage Passport.[5] The band retired after a 2024 tour.

The fest takes place in Sleepy Hollow, NY on October 10-13, 2024, and is now accepting film and script submissions! Be a part of this wondrous exploration of creative cinema, right in the heart of the historic Hudson Valley region, during its celebrated Halloween season! SHIFF debuted in October 2019 and was an official partner in the Bicentennial celebration of Washington Irving’s immortal story “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.” SHIFF ’19 unveiled four days of memorable programming at the historic Tarrytown Music Hall and Warner Library, thrilling attendees with feature film premieres, live stage events, special guest panels and film and screenplay competitions. Entertainment giants Disney and Universal Pictures participated in the launch, presenting special events and screenings. “Certain it is, the place still continues under the sway of some witching power that holds a spell over the minds of the good people, causing them to walk in continual reverie.” —WASHINGTON IRVING, “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” And the reverie continues: This special place, this remarkable hollow of the indescribable, bewitched not only Irving, but also artists of every creative pursuit for the next two centuries—including masters of the cinematic arts. Sleepy Hollow International Film Festival celebrates this legacy of artistic inspiration and achievement. The festival’s 2024 advisory board, selection committees and jury includes film and literary professionals with industry experience who will program and award new films of quality, in all genres that touch upon, relate to or simply explore the otherworldly or unknown. SHIFF 2019’s offerings included U.S. and regional premieres of THE WRETCHED, PHANTOM OF WINNIPEG and MAKING APES as well as a special advance screening of Peter Strickland’s IN FABRIC and more! Our program also included stunning live events, such as Jeffrey Combs as Edgar Allan Poe in NEVERMORE, or Dana Gould and an all-star comedy cast in a live stage reading of PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE!

The Substance (2024) Movie Review | Frumess
Bryan Dressel joins me in conversation to discuss The Substance (2024) The Substance is a 2024 satirical body horror monster film co-produced, written and directed by Coralie Fargeat. The film stars Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley and Dennis Quaid. An international co-production between the United Kingdom and France, its plot follows a fading celebrity (Moore) who decides to use a black market drug, a cell-replicating substance that temporarily creates a younger, better version of herself (Qualley), unknowingly giving her horrifying side effects.

Inspired by revenge movies like Kill Bill, Rambo, and Mad Max, Fargeat was interested in exploring a character who would seem "weak" to others or the audience, but during the film would undergo a transformation into a "kind of superhero" that would set out to get her revenge.[13] The film had its world premiere at the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival in the festival's Midnight Madness section,[14] and was selected to be screened at 23 additional film festivals.
