Son of Sam – Songs from the Earth
January 16, 2010
If you're a Misfits, Danzig, Samhain, Tiger Army or AFI fan, then this album belongs in your possession. A (initially apparent) one-off album by a group of horror rock/Punk pioneers featuring Davey Havok (AFI), Todd Youth (Danzig), Steve Zing (Samhain) and London May (Tiger Army/Samhain) on the drums. If the Misfits never decided to make a comeback with Michael Graves in the mid to late nineties, Son of Sam could have taken off like a rocket. I'm particularly akin to the tracks “Michael”, “Of Power”, and “Satiate”. Though this band may never play a show or release another album in its original form (the group came back together with a new singer and drummer in 2007), it is most definitely a core album to my collection. I strongly suggest you begin the hunt for it, as not many albums were released and I doubt it will be re-released.
