My Top Five '95 Misfits Songs

This will a bit of a sister post to my In Defense of the '95 Misfits post.  Hopefully if you haven't checked this era of the band out before this will give ya a good taste of what the band was about.  I won't list Dig Up Her Bones or Saturday Night because even though they are unquestionably two of my favorites, they are probably the most well known songs of this era and I'd rather give a little love to some of the ones you don't hear as much about.  Also, this won't be in any particular order, just the five songs I am always game to listen to.  Click through to check 'em out.

In Defense of the '95 Misfits

Seeing as how the reformation of The Misfits in 1995 was probably more for financial reasons than anything else, I can understand why some people look at it with skepticism.  It's not exactly a secret that Danzig had far more success after the dissolution of the band than Jerry and Doyle, so it was bound to seem like a cash grab when after so many years it was announced that the band was coming back without Danzig at the helm.  You can't really defend the motives behind the band coming back, but that doesn't necessarily mean that the music they made wasn't worthwhile. It seems to have become hip to not like that era of the band but I can unabashedly say that I love it.
