On July 10, evilive will release The Lost Tracks of Danzig, a two-CD set comprised of 26 previously unreleased tracks that span Danzig's entire career. All of the tracks were recorded during the band's seven-album "arc" that began with 1988's Danzig. "Whenever I've made a new album, I've recorded more songs than were needed for the final CD," said Glenn Danzig. "The songs that make it onto the final album 'fit' or 'flow' together as a whole. Consequently, some tremendous Danzig songs have never been released, not because they weren't great, but because they didn't fit the overall vibe of the particular album, or for other reasons." When Glenn began the Lost Tracks project, the songs were in various stages of completion - some were still in demo form, some had no vocals,some needed a different mix, a new bass or guitar track, or some other type of tweaking. So, after spending months tracking down and reviewing the original tapes, Glenn entered the studio and completed the tracks, handling the vocals and finishing all instrumental recording himself. The 26 songs on The Lost Tracks of Danzig are presented in chronological order; the first two cuts are "Pain Like an Animal" and "When Death Had No Name," both songs that have their roots in late Samhain but evolved into two of the very first Danzig tracks and intended for the band's self-titled debut. Fans will also find a song entitled "Angels of the Seventh Dawn," originally recorded for the 1990 album Danzig II: Lucifuge, "Crawl Across Your Killing Floor," considered for Danzig 6: Satan's Child, and the controversial "White Devil Rise," which was recorded for 1994's Danzig 4p and is Glenn's conjecture as to what would happen if Louis Farrakhan incited the passive white race to rise up against and start a race war with the Black Islamic movement. Danzig also liked to include cover songs on his albums so The Lost Tracks of Danzig, will feature T-Rex's "Buick McKane" (1992's Danzig III:How The Gods Kill), David Bowie's "Cat People" (Danzig 7), and "Caught In My Eye" by The Germs (Danzig 6). One of the CD's true treasures is a sparse acoustic version of "Come to Silver," a song that Glenn originally wrote for Johnny Cash (who reportedly loved it), then recorded it (with Jerry Cantrell on guitar) for 1996's Danzig 5: Blackacidevil.
