True, some of the tracks on Collection II were not technically Misfits recordings (“Cough/Cool,” “Hate Breeders,” “Nike-A-Go-Go” and a few others), as Glenn Danzig overdubbed some parts and Samhain bassist Eerie Von also lending a helping hand post the band’s breakup. But the attitude that defined the horror punk icons is alive and kicking in Collection II, which surveys early singles and the entire Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood album. Some essential materials on here, “Attitude,” “Last Caress,” “We Are 138,” and “Halloween” to name a few, but as with most Misfits recordings, the songs are short and to the point, so listen beginning to end.
