Performance Anxiety

Today’s guest is truly multi-talented. Welcome modern renaissance man Eerie Von to the podcast. Eerie talks about his varied creative talents. Whether it’s drums, bass, singing, photography, painting, or whatever he sets his mind to, Eerie is a force to be reckoned with. He’s also one of the most down-to-earth people I’ve ever had on the show. He’s an open book about his time in Samhain and Danzig. He talks about how those bands formed and why he ended up leaving Danzig after the fourth album.He talks about Rick Rubin and the influence he had on Danzig’s image as well as their sound. But we go all the way back to the beginning, when he was photographing The Misfits and playing in Rosemary’s Babies. His images with The Misfits have become iconic. They even became part of his book, Misery Obscura. Eerie also talks openly about the music he’s made after leaving Danzig. There’s an album that’s a horror soundtrack without the movie. There’s his more punk influenced album. Then there’s his country album. He also talks about the album that bridged the gap there that was unfortunately lost when his hard drive crashed! His latest album, Not 4 Nuthin’ is out. But don’t try to stream it. It’s only available from Eerie and only as a CD. So reach out to him at eerievon777@gmail.com to get your copy.
