The Misfits are an American punk rock band, often recognized as pioneers of the horror punk subgenre, blending punk and other musical influences with horror film themes and imagery. The group was formed in 1977 in Lodi, New Jersey, by vocalist, songwriter, and keyboardist Glenn Danzig. Shortly after, bassist Jerry Only joined, and the pair remained the core members through numerous personnel changes over the next six years. During this period, they released several EPs and singles, and with Only's brother Doyle on guitar, the albums Walk Among Us (1982) and Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood (1983) were released—both considered touchstones of the early-1980s hardcore punk movement. Over the years, the band has undergone many lineup changes, with Jerry Only serving as the group’s only constant member.
