Samhain returned to the studio and cut the "Unholy Passion" EP which was soon followed by the full-length release, "Samhain III- November Coming Fire".
Suitable for either the casual Misfits fan or the die-hard Danzig fanatic, the Samhain box set is an indispensable compendium of Samhain recordings.
Samhain, the Irish precursor of our Halloween, a night when the boundary between this world and all others dissolves- provided both the inspiration and the name for Glenn Danzig's least- famous and least- rewarding band.

Although Samhain was basically a solo vehicle for Danzig (he was the group's singer and songwriter, and also played an assortment of instruments on subsequent recordings -- guitar, bass, piano, drums, etc.), he was joined by a variety of musicians during their existence.
The new lineup was supposed to issue a recording in 1988 (under the title of Samhain Grim), but the recording was ultimately shelved, as Danzig opted to change the name of the band to Danzig (Samhain Grim was eventually released two years later, retitled Final Descent).
Samhain collected all four of their releases as well as a live disc that combined tracks from a 1985 show in New York City and a 1986 show in Chicago.

 Glenn Danzig - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Samhain was a darker, more occult and "real life horror" themed band that strayed from the tongue in cheek imagery of The Misfits.
Samhain released two full length albums and an E.P. of unique, gritty sounding death rock music.
In 1987, Samhain was signed to a major label and the name of the band was changed to Danzig.

 Rites of passage: Danzig's Samhain years   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
It's hard to argue that Samhain were more than a way station on the road from the hardscrabble goth punk of Danzig's Misfits to the slicker heavy metal of the solo Danzig.
Samhain rose from the ashes of the Misfits when, in 1983, Danzig went to Washington, DC, to form a supergroup with former Minor Threat guitarists Brian Baker and Lyle Preslar.
This was nothing new: Danzig often reworked songs on Samhain albums even after their release, so that different pressings might have different versions of certain tracks.

This four-CD box set (or a limited edition of eight vinyl albums) collects a bevy of unreleased live tracks, alternate studio cuts and even a handful of unreleased studio tracks.
Of course, the purpose of the box set, and the Ken Burns documentary, is to show the genre's evolution.
This set includes each of the comedy albums he released on Warner Bros. Records, from 1968's "Richard Pryor" to the renowned 1982 disc, "Richard Pryor Live On The Sunset Strip." It also includes a handful of odds and ends that have never been released.

 Rough Edge: Samhain CD Reviews
Unfortunately, all told, it's just a little of not much and can easily be skipped over by those who don't have to have every Samhain CD in their collection.
Be warned, however; like the Ramones, Samhain manage to put ten songs on a CD with a running time of only 29 minutes.
SAMHAIN is: Glenn Danzig - vocals; guitars; Eerie Von - bass; Steve Zing - drums.

 NEWCITYCHICAGO.COM: Street Smart Chicago
Not only does the set include Samhain's four recordings on four separate discs--"Initium," "Unholy Passion" (which has, incidentally, been out-of-print since the late eighties), "November-Coming Fire" and "Final Descent"--but also a previously unreleased, live double-CD which features two performances, one from NYC in 1985, and another from Chicago's Metro in 1986.
Every record has been, like the tracks from the Misfits' box set, digitally remastered and recording flaws erased; for those out there who, like myself, clung to the cassette of "Initium/Unholy Passion" until the sound was worn off the tape, the collective of CDs sounds like they were recorded yesterday.
And as if the unreleased live CDs weren't enough, the box set includes a video version of both shows, with the New York set reminiscent of a show at any old, tiny, punk-rock venue, and with the band besmeared in crimson at the Metro show.

 Samhain
In the beginning, Samhain included Lyle Preslar (formerly of Minor Threat) on guitar; Eerie Von (who was working with I'm Afraid at the time) was called in to play bass; long time friend Steve Zing was asked to play drums and do backing vocals.
It was while Steve Zing was in Samhain that he first interacted with Joseph Jay and asked him to sing for Mourning Noise and later join Chyna on keyboards.
During the month of November in 1999, members of Samhain reunited for a month long tour and and to celebrate the release of the Samhain Box Set.

 BLABBERMOUTH.NET - SAMHAIN: 'Live 1984 – Stardust Ballroom' DVD Due In September
SAMHAIN was a transition for Glenn Danzig between the fierce cult punk phenom of the MISFITS and the dark metal blues swagger of his self-titled current band DANZIG.
Samhain is another interpretation of the Pagan celebration of Sow-en, which means Summer's End (Lyric from November Coming Fire: 'Night calls on Summer's end....') Might wanna look into that, thevalbomb.

 Martin Popoff's Reviews Page 2
Very cool set of fifteen tracks here recorded way back in '81, on the band's first tour with John Deverill, everybody sick as a dog, in fact (save for future guitar god John Sykes), a NWOBHM whisker away from canceling the show on doctor's orders to do so forthrightly.
As the construction and assemblage of box sets go, this one, six or seven years in the bloody pudding, is only average.
Likely the last word on Samhain, the final resplendent spot you should stop at (whenever you are ready) to check off the acquisition and ingestion of this particularly tragically cool corner of rock history, one that defies categories, something Danzig has always figured out how to do.

 Splendid E-zine reviews: Samhain
Following the success of the Samhain box set, E-Magine has re-released each of Samhain's four classic CDs individually, with each disc remastered and including additional artwork.
Whether you've been frothing at the mouth for your Samhain tapes to be replaced on a digital format, or are quizzically reading along, wondering who Samhain is, this rash of reissues has been a long time coming.
As the last track on Initium, "Archangel", finishes cycling in your CD player, it becomes quite apparent that Glenn Danzig has fully recognized the power of his voice, bellowing out line after line of the borderline heretical lyrics that pioneered a new level of offensive imagery for the moral majority.

 A Perfect Fit
When he hits the Electric Factory this Friday, he’ll also be playing with Samhain, the band he formed in between The Misfits and his solo career.
When asked why he’s reassembled Samhain after such a long hiatus (the band broke up in 1988), Glenn Danzig is quick to point out that this tour isn’t a full-fledged reunion.
"We’re just getting together as part of the Danzig set and doing about 45 minutes." As part of the deal with his new label, a Samhain box set will be released next year, and Glenn looked to Ozzy Osbourne — who toured simultaneously as a solo artist and with Black Sabbath — for inspiration.

The live disc that heretofore was only available as part of the ubiquitously monikered Box Set finally appeared as a single seedy CD a year after the set and several months after the previously released titles were reissued as solo items.
While it is nice to be able to get this item without having to shell out the cash for a five-disc set, it suffers from the same relatively cheap makeup as the box, with sparse packaging that looks like a bootleg as opposed to an officially sanctioned release.
This cd is included in the Samhain box set along with the entire discography of the band.
