Glenn Danzig on The Headbangers Ball (1989)

[@jnever9768]

its funny how thoughtful and soft spoken he is. any mother would be proud. 👻

[@jamesgilliam5278]

He's actually very Professional. I was kind of shocked when I first started listening to his interviews. Deep as well.

[@magneteye]

Danzig in his prime was fucking epic. Nothing like him.

[@danieledentico4564]

Cant’believe people, 1989 ...After 33 years today still i Listen to Danzig!

[@dersturmerofjewery6038]

I'm 23 I listen to danzing far as I can remember when I was 5 brother came back from Afghanistan jammed to danzing in his car when he pulled up

[@captaindaddy8645]

danzig's first album is so raw...its a classic.

[@randomguy80]

@AlisaRed111Misfits Best Danzig song🤘

[@junkbox_]

The first Danzig album is the only one that was recorded in the East Coast in New York and not the West Coast in Los Angeles. In short Danzig 1 from 1988 was the final record GD recorded in NY or NJ. Licifuge as well ad everything that followed Danzig II in 1990 was done in LA forever after.

[@justinbarnett9476]

His answer about parenting and kids learning from experience is spot on. They need guidance but they have to learn by experiences. He said it perfectly

[@jimmyvonesh3188]

I remember seeing this when it originally aired. I was 14 ! (47 now) Thanks for posting.

[@KyOte13]

Glenn has always been super articulate. The guy knows what he’s talking about, and I don’t think they were quite ready for him in an interview situation when he started to gain prominence. He was a lot more well spoken, and intelligent than people assumed

[@specialk3357]

Everytime I look at Danzig I think of how great he would have been as Wolverine in X-Men (also how legendary he was!). The studio begged, no way he would have ever done it though, fun to imagine.

[@MABADBledsoe]

@@TheOnlyRealAlf Here's your attention. Done w you Uh yeah, a 5'3 kickass wolverine! Hugh who?

[@runnersdialzero1244]

Both parties were considering it, but in the end, Glenn backed out because he wouldn't be able to tour for a year or more. Really a shame, it could've been great.

[@jakeryzo899]

He was great anyway

[@scherryvalentine9673]

Best comment of all time. Ever.

[@cmdc778]

@@MABADBledsoe Yeah. Wolverine, I do believe, is supposed to be exactly 5ft 3in in the comics. I mean, that’s why he is called Wolverine, (pound for pound the most vicious animal, etc.) and I thought they kind of ruined the character casting a taller guy as they took away some of Wolverine’s charm.

[@indiglo1971]

Cliff Burton called Glenn late at night for the lyrics to Green Hell. Cliff also got Rick Rubin to go see Samhain at the New Music Seminar. Rick talked with Glenn after the show, and Glenn had no idea who he was!!!😅😅😅😊

This is excellent. If you have any other Danzig interviews please post them.

[@wvmonster]

If I run across any more I'll definitely post them. I'm going through old VHS tapes one by one and I know I recorded anything Danzig related back in the day. It's just a matter of time before I find some more clips.

[@cabalofdemons]

@@wvmonster That's the best news of the day. Thank you.

[@specialk3357]

Gotta love the old vhs classics! I’m subbing so I can watch them. Can’t wait for more funny recording’s!

[@wvmonster]

Thanks!

[@oxrjbizzle1984y]

theres a cool one from danzig with the misfits in 1983, where it's like a live performance intermixed with a couple interview questions, look for that one, i think it was filmed in michigan. anyways danzig comes off as really cool and funny, many people claim danzig to be a jerk and a hard ass, but he's really cool and down to earth when he is in his good moods i guess, haha....

[@anthonydidomenico3541]

Glenn seems pissed at Adam Curry for his big hair. He's like "ahhh, you're killing the ozone you fucking hipster"

[@junkbox_]

The red pilled Glenn had good chemistry with the red pilled Adam who is able to separate layers with ability to understand deeper meanings. Adam Curry is no slouch and Glenn knows this. Neither of these guys were regular dudes and both are well-researched people. Adam Curry co-founded the podcast format and that is just scratching at the surface. These two were outside of the box and were intentionally going beyond a typical interview. Both are really deeply read into secret societies, esotericism, technocracy and draconianism. Both are very outspoken on all of the above topics. In 1989 the masses could not wrap their head around such subjects sandwiched in between hair metal and lipstick rock. Perspective and projection is subject to change without notice. In the Karate Kid from 1984, Daniel is seen as a victim being bullied by Johnny. A whole generation misinterpreted the fact that Johnny was actually not the bully - Daniel was. Use the same formula and you will find what MTV Headbanger's Ball VJ was alpha and what one was beta this whole time. I recommend the Adam Curry episode of Joe Rogan to see who he is and always has been. It's not what you think.

[@RickordProductions]

Adam Curry was more intelligent with questions than Riki Rachtman. Plus Adam wouldn’t cut off guests in the middle of their answers like Riki did and Glenn gave Riki a harder time on HBB even though he was actually good friends with him but Glenn was never too shy to call out someone’s stupidity and corny questions. In this segment it looked like Glenn was more comfortable with talking to Adam Curry compared to his interviews with Riki.

[@ApriliaRacer14]

Absolutely sense the same.

[@Endo-uu8mo]

Lol Glenn and everybodys haircut was the same at that time ,just no Big Hair rest is all the same 😅

[@TheLordGoat]

Well, Adam was a poser who hated true metal and HC. He was clowned since he started on Headbangers Ball, He admitted he was out of place, you can see how silly he's dressed.

[@fabiovigolo7288]

[@Hupomone]

[@Skoora]

I vaguely remember this guy but good interviewer. Just asks Glenn to elaborate rather than elaborate for him.

[@wvmonster]

Adam Curry. He was a bit of a dork but he did seem to prepare for interviews. Then his replacement comes along (Riki Rachtman) and winds up asking questions like "did Anthrax invent the word mosh?" Yikes.

[@Skoora]

@@wvmonster Ricki was the worst. Just a terrible host.

[@monkeygod7503]

Back then then they would promote albums for years. That album was out in 89 but didn't get huge until about 93.

[@Th3_Colony]

Not exactly. It was 2 albums after when they released the Thrall demon sweat live that "Mother" caught on because of MTV.

From my town Lodi, NJ with also the Misfits

[@dchristopher7]

Man vs Self is the ultimate battle. Until you learn to how to tame/control the beast within [which we ALL harbor to some degree], every personal battle you find yourself in, is fought at a disadvantage.

[@RickordProductions]

Considering Riki Rachtman didn't do a bad job with HBB, Adam Curry was a fully seasoned VJ. Unlike Riki, he knew how to do interviews and speak to a camera. If Riki approached his position like that he would've been a way better VJ for MTV. The reason why they kept Riki so long on Headbanger's Ball instead of Adam Curry is because, one, Riki was hired under Axl Rose's recommendation and two, Riki was already friends with a lot of hard rock/ metal bands inlcuding Glenn Danzig, plus he was especially good friends with the bands in the LA scene before they got famous. He had the clout and could easily bring them on as guests on the show.

Adam Curry is no dum-dum. Notice when he picks up on esoteric meanings that Glenn perks up. Loved Adam's Joe Rogan episode, it is on KZbin, I highly recommend it. He is red pilled.

[@RavnerRavner]

glenn at least respected that the guy asked some good questions

[@wvmonster]

Adam Curry was a bit annoying but I'll give him credit, he did do his research before each interview and he did listen to the albums that were being discussed.

[@marshallkrich]

You could tell Glenn wanted to get pissed at first mentioning the Misfits but he started to get into the interview

[@thatrandomchannel8589]

[@wvmonster]

I think Glenn definitely was. I remember thinking that when this first aired. It was the first time I'd ever seen Glenn Danzig in an interview and I was kinda surprised at how nervous he seemed. I think that fed into Adam Curry's somewhat nervous reaction.

[@oxrjbizzle1984y]

@@wvmonster well you have to remember that glenn didn't have much experience doing tv interviews at this point, lol, he had been part of some popular punk and underground bands, but the misfits and samhain never made much money or got much exposure, certainly no national exposure. so this was glenn's i guess original period of getting used to fame probably....
