This discography tells the story of the band in all of its incarnations through all of their recorded output--both official and unauthorized releases. Discographies are provided for both present and former members' solo projects and bands, along with a wealth of rare record sleeves, photos and vintage posters documenting the evolution of the band and the brand.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"The Complete Misfits Discography is filled with the compiler's understanding, good humor, and insight into the band and its unique history. It well deserves the 2020 ARSC Award for Excellence it received for Best Discography in the category of Best Research in Recorded Rock and Popular Music."--<i>Association for Recorded Sound Collections Journal</i><br><br>"This decent-sized 242-page opus is filled to the brim with information on pretty much every release relating to the Misfits and its rather huge musical family that you can possibly think of, and the best part about the book is that the wonderfully geeky yet skilled writer Mr. Cotter guides us through the history of the band from beginning to end too, thereby placing each release in a larger historical context. In other words, there is a red thread running through it all and the author's own perspectives on all things Misfits as well as his thoughts on each album and single and so on are often hilarious and make for a great read. Actually, the irony and sarcasm that sneaks in quite often is arguably the most charming part of the piece and there were so many phrases and paragraphs that had me in stitches. ... I dig Cotter's creative style of writing as his enthusiasm and passion with respect to the subject matter shines through on every page, which is certainly commendable. ...valuable... As a huge fan of the horror punk pioneers, this one came in quite handy for yours truly and it is worth checking out if you are either a serious collector or simply just looking to start collecting a few Misfits items and need a bit of guidance in that department."--<i>Eternal Terror</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>The late <b>Robert Michael "Bobb" Cotter</b> was a graphic designer. In addition to having written several books about comics and film, he wrote a monthly column for <i>Creepy Classics.</i> He lived in Pittsburgh.
