Misfits

In November 1997, when the Misfits performed "Halloween" live at the First Avenue Club in Minneapolis, they were coming off the release of their album "American Psycho," which had debuted earlier that year. This album marked a significant moment in the band's history, representing their return after a decade-long hiatus and introducing a new lineup that included frontman Michale Graves. The performance captured in the recording reflects the band's evolution, demonstrating their ability to blend punk rock with a horror-infused aesthetic, a signature element of their identity. Notably, "Halloween" has become one of the Misfits' most iconic songs, often associated with their live shows and the Halloween season, further solidifying their legacy in the punk and horror punk genres. The energy of the performance showcases the band's enduring appeal and strong fan base during this period of their career.
