Misfits to release 'The Devil's Rain'
by The Misfits

On October 4, 2011, Misfits will release their first album of original material in ten years. Their last studio album was a collection of covers titled Project 1950 and released in 2003. Before that, they released the original album Famous Monsters in 1999 on Roadrunner Records. It reunites the band with Famous Monsters producer Ed Stasium who also recorded The Ramones' Road to Ruin and Too Tough to Die.

The band's current lineup – consisting of founding member Jerry Only on vocals/bass, Black Flag alum Dez Cadena, and drummer Eric "Chupacabra" Arce – will kick off an extensive US tour in September. Other members of the original Misifts will also be performing this fall. Founding frontman/songwriter Glenn Danzig will be performing at Riot Fest as well as three other American cities later in the year. The shows will feature a Misfits-centric set from Danzig and ex-Misfits guitarist Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein.
