    Misfits
    are an American
    punk rock
    band often recognized as the progenitors of the
    horror punk
    subgenre, blending punk and other musical influences with
    horror film
    themes and imagery. Founded in 1977 in
    Lodi, New Jersey
    , the original lineup consisted of
    Glenn Danzig
    ,
    bassist
    Jerry Only
    , and
    drummer
    Manny Martínez. Danzig and Only were the only consistent members throughout the next six years, in which they released several
    EPs
    and
    singles
    , and with Only's brother
    Doyle
    as guitarist, the albums
    Walk Among Us
    (1982) and
    Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood
    (1983), both considered touchstones of the early-1980s
    hardcore punk
    movement.Misfits disbanded in 1983 and Danzig went on to form
    Samhain
    and then
    Danzig
    . Several albums of reissued and previously unreleased material were issued after the group's dissolution, and their music later became influential to punk rock,
    heavy metal
    , and
    alternative rock
    . After a series of legal battles with Danzig, Only and Doyle regained the rights to record and perform as the Misfits. They formed a new version of the band in 1995 with singer
    Michale Graves
    and drummer
    Dr. Chud
    . This incarnation of Misfits had a more heavy metal sound, and released the albums
    American Psycho
    (1997) and
    Famous Monsters
    (1999) before dissolving in 2000. Jerry Only then took over lead vocals and recruited former
    Black Flag
    guitarist
    Dez Cadena
    and former
    Ramones
    drummer
    Marky Ramone
    for a Misfits 25th Anniversary tour.This lineup released an album of
    cover songs
    titled
    Project 1950
    and toured for several years. In 2005, Ramone was replaced by
    Robo
    , who had played with Black Flag in the early 1980s and had also previously been Misfits' drummer from 1982 to 1983. This lineup released a single titled "
    Land of the Dead
    " in 2009. The Misfits' lineup of Only, Cadena, and drummer Eric "Chupacabra" Arce released a new album titled
    The Devil's Rain
    in October 2011. In 2015 it was announced that Cadena would be taking a break from music after receiving a cancer diagnosis, and was replaced by Only's son Jerry Caiafa II. That same year
    Soulfly
    's
    Marc Rizzo
    joined the band, also playing guitar, filling in for Cadena before Caiafa would move on to become the sole guitarist for the band. In September 2016, for the first time in 33 years, Danzig, Only and Doyle reunited for two headlining shows at the
    Riot Fest
    , along with original
    Slayer
    drummer
    Dave Lombardo
    and second guitarist Acey Slade.
