DANZIG Talks Unreleased Material – “There’s Cover Songs That Didn’t Make It Onto The Cover Record”
Glenn Danzig was the latest guest on Full Metal Jackie’s weekend radio program. Among the topics discussed was Danzig’s plethora of unreleased material gathered up over the years.
Danzig reveals, “There’s a lot of stuff left over from lost tracks that didn’t make it. There’s a lot of unfinished stuff. Then, of course, since that time, there’s tracks that didn’t make it to Deth Red Sabaoth. There’s cover songs that didn’t’ make it onto the cover record. I did a cover of Iggy Pop’s ‘Fun Time’. Me and Tommy (Victor, guitar) did a really good job. The guitars are very heavy. And stuff like that. I think I did another track with Cherie (Currie) because they wouldn’t let us use the track with Cherie, the publishers, which is a drag. It came out really good too. She did it onstage with us, though, at Universal.”
This year marks the first Blackest Of The Black Destination Festival. The brainchild of Glenn Danzig, the event not only serves as a music festival, but as a cultural experience: an escape. A video trailer for the event can be seen below:
Coming to Oak Canyon Park in Silverado, CA in Orange County on Memorial Day Weekend, Friday, May 26th and Saturday, May 27th, Blackest Of The Black will host two music stages, curated by Danzig, with performances by some of the heaviest acts around including Danzig, Ministry, Suicidal Tendencies, Atreyu, Vamps, and many more. The festival will be hosted by Full Metal Jackie and will feature camping, along with a number of sinister attractions including Castle Danzig - a fully immersive walkthrough experience of agony, ecstasy and more, all based on the music and graphic novels of Glenn Danzig.
Glenn Danzig says, “I first started Blackest in the early 2000s and finally my full vision is being realized. Get ready for sensory overload, from films to comics to Castle Danzig. This is going to be the real Blackest Of The Black."
The music lineup for Blackest Of The Black is as follows:
Friday, May 26th: Suicidal Tendencies, Corrosion of Conformity, Suicide Silence, Discharge, Belphegor, Butcher Babies, 3 Teeth, and more to be announced.

The main attraction, Castle Danzig, is an interactive walk through with a number of activations. Within the vicinity of the eerie castle and courtyard, attendees will find a sacrifice altar, bondage stage, suspension stage, electro stage, blood bath, a padded cell, stocks, cage dancers, and more.
