Danzig Announce 2023 US Tour Celebrating 35th Anniversary of Debut Album

  • Oops! Something went wrong. Please try again later. More content below

The post Danzig Announce 2023 US Tour Celebrating 35th Anniversary of Debut Album appeared first on Consequence .

Tell your children not to walk Danzig ’s way… unless they want to hear him sing “Mother.” In honor of the 35th anniversary of the band’s 1988 self-titled debut album, Danzig are hitting the road to perform the LP in its entirety, with stacked support from Behemoth , Twin Temple , and Midnight .

Beginning August 25th in Las Vegas, the tour takes the band down the West Coast before a three date romp in Texas. From there, they head east, playing in Atlanta, Atlantic City, and Boston before wrapping up September 17th in Chicago. According to a Facebook post from the band, the outing will be “the Only DANZIG Shows for the foreseeable future.”

Pre-sale tickets open up Wednesday, May 31st, at 10:00 a.m. local time (use code ICONIC ) via Ticketmaster , while the general sale begins Friday, June 2nd. Fans can also check for deals or tickets to sold-out show via StubHub , where orders are 100% guaranteed via StubHub’s FanProtect Program.

Last year, Glenn Danzig said he didn’t expect to tour  much anymore, so the anniversary celebration of Danzig  may be your last chance to experience the band’s brand of heavy metal.

Earlier this month, the legendary vocalist played a standalone Las Vegas gig in which he sang the music of Elvis Presley. He also has three US dates scheduled with the Original Misfits in June and July. Tickets for those shows are available here .

Danzig Announces 2023 Tour Celebrating 35th Anniversary of Debut Album

by Tiffany Goldstein May 26, 2023, 9:55 am

It’s been 35 years since the heavy metal band Danzig released their self-titled album in 1988. Danzig plans to hit the road this summer, to celebrate the record that changed the trajectory of their career.   

Videos by American Songwriter

The musicians turned to social media Thursday evening (May 25) to announce the news. 

“DANZIG announces a string of 35th Anniversary Live Dates performing the 1st Classic Album in it’s entirety,” read the statement on Facebook . “These will be the Only DANZIG Shows for the foreseeable future so do not miss this opportunity to see these rare DANZIG Performances.” 

Polish band Behemoth and Twin Temple & Midnight will serve as direct support on the run. The trek will begin in Las Vegas, Nevada, on August 25 and wrap in late September in Chicago, Illinois, at the Byline Bank Aragon Ballroom.

The band, composed of Glenn Danzig, Johnny Kelly, Steve Zing, and Tommy Victor, is expected to hit massive markets including Houston, Texas; Atlanta, Georgia; Boston, Massachusetts; and Cleveland, Ohio. Pre-sale tickets will be available starting Wednesday, May 31, at 10 a.m. local time via Ticketmaster. The general sale will be open on Friday, June 2. 

Danzig formed the band in 1987. After exploring the East Coast rock scene, the group became prominent musicians for their electrifying sound and grunge-like lyrics. Their 1988 track “Mother” propelled the group to stardom. The ensemble has released 12 studio albums. 

Their debut album includes a handful of their biggest hits, such as “Am I Demon,” “Twist of Cain,” “Not of The World,” and “Soul On Fire.” Following the release, Danzig embarked on a world tour supporting the collection from 1988 to 1989. After their headlining run, they opened for Metallica on their And Justice for All Tour and Slayer. To date,  Danzig  is the band’s best-selling album.

"Danzig" was released in August 1988 via producer Rick Rubin 's then-new label Def American Recordings . It remains the band's best-selling album, having been certified platinum in the U.S. for sales in excess of a million copies.

When DANZIG , the band, grew out of the MISFITS / SAMHAIN lineage in 1987, leader Glenn Danzig went into the new project with even grander ambitions and a long-term design. Between 1977 and 1987, the MISFITS ' horror-punk morphed into the darker, occult-steeped SAMHAIN . When producer and record mogul Rick Rubin showed interest in signing SAMHAIN to his Def Jam label and producing their first record, the band yet again evolved, and DANZIG was born.

1988's "Danzig" debut stripped away the creepy dissonance of SAMHAIN and replaced it with a focused sensibility. It rocked hard and aimed for the gut; it was primal and memorable, a straightforward howl of sinister rock and roll played by a band of four who locked tight in their vision and looked unified in their presentation.
