Yeah it’s really upbeat and happy and easy to tap your toe to, but he’s singing about extermination of the human race, and falling into piles of flesh. The contrast is fun.
+Robert Adams I agree. This is the only true form of punk, no doubt. It started as a revival to 50s rock n roll & The Misfits captured it perfectly. And no other was able to since.
if you think this is the only true form of punk and that no one has captured the punk/horror punk band vibe since them you need to start listening to more bands
This song really shows off Danzig’s genius, he could sing the darkest lyrics about horror movies from the 50’s and make it sound like a upbeat pop song. If you didn’t pay attention you might miss this song is about the end of the human race.
Me and my friend Ellie ride around (her on a skateboard , me on a bike) listening to music like this all day, and we call ourselves the misfitz gang lol. Fun times.
Oh, all I want to know All I want With just a touch of my burning hand I send my astro zombies to rape the land Prime directive, exterminate The whole human race And your face drops in a pile of flesh And then your heart, heart pounds Till it pumps in death Prime directive, exterminate Whatever stands left All I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you And all I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you Oh, all I want to know All I want With just a touch of my burning hand I'm gonna live my life to to destroy your world Prime directive, exterminate The whole fuckin' race Then your face drops in a pile of flesh And then your heart, heart pounds And it pumps in death Prime directive, exterminate The whole fuckin' place well All I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you And all I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you Oh, all I want to know All I want to know All I want to know All I want oh Go
I can't even begin to estimate how much I listened to this tape in my teens. I had three copies for the car, my room, and 1 for the basement stereo. My favorite track from my favorite punk band. Sounds like a time machine to me
im in my early 30's now and i started listening to the misfits when i was 14 years old. Many years after danzig had already left the group and they went through multiple line up changes. These songs sound better to me now than they ever did. I loved them back then and i love them even more now. NEVER gets old.
37 here and I grew up with punk as well, but drifted away from it for a couple decades. Rediscovered it in the last few years and love it now more than ever!
I’m 31 and feel the same fuckin way. I drifted away from it for about a decade and then once I dove back into the misfits… unreal is all I can say. It’s no joke like a fuckin drug!
I saw their reunion tour a few years back when they played the forum in Inglewood and literally the entire Fuckin venue sang every word of every song, and this one for some reason really stuck with me, always reminds me of hearings so many voices singing this chorus at the top of their lungs
I'm 24. Just got into Misfits, even tho all my friends from middle to high school were the goth/stoner type who wore their shirts. I wasted 24 years of my life goddamnit.
It's okay! I'm in my 50s and found this at a record store in the 80s. I loved 50s and 60s cheesy horror movies, (and punk rock). You find cool shit when you find it.
Saw Misfits for the first time Saturday night in Tampa with Megadeth and sadly I’ve never listened to the Misfits and they were awesome! I’m a new fan at 44 years old🤘🏼They put on a badass show.
Dude, I’ve been trying to see them live so much recently and I’ve been a diehard fan for a while. So happy your first misfits experience could be live! Horror punk is great.
cant get the day underway without atleast 10 misfits songs,. I didn't grow up through the micheal graves era , was all danzig for me but I don't mind his songs, still misfits … didnt listen to them for 20 years and I don't know why I ever stopped . I phukn love their songs and im 43 so I guess im regressing or reminiscing about my younger years.
for music homework I got told to listen to different types of music that will explain why I've gone from oasis to cradle of filth to David bowie and now to misfits
It's my last day at work tomorrow. I'm gonna fully skate through the store with a portable speaker on my side blasting this the moment I clock in. Wish me luck.
Will be 50 years old this year. Been a fan since mid to late 80's. Saw the Jerry fronted version a few years ago, was a decent show and he hung out forever signing shit after. Finally getting to see The Original Misfits tonight in Tampa... Hoping to hear 3 songs and I'll be happy. Astro Zombies, Where Eagles Dare, and London Dungeon. Of course Bullet would be a bonus for sure!!! Keep punk alive my Friends, Fellows, and Fiends.
i heard a Danzig song today... once the second guitar solo started i put this on. remembering sitting in a lawn chair, beer in hand, my backyard neighbor works on his car. listening to Cousin Brucie . doo wop playing in a Lodi barber shop. "whadya mean shave one side"?
I remember when this shit was so underground, i had to get a taped copy of everything I could from a kid named Greg Young. He was bootlegging crimson ghost skull t shirts in his garage because in 1985, we couldn't find any.
My dad fucking skipped over this in the car and claimed "it was ass" this shit slaps idc what anyone says edit: He doesn't even hate misfits he just won't listen to any misfits song that isn't glen danzig singing smh
Bascially perfection. However by saying that, I can't even describe by words what and how much Tommy, Dee Dee, Joey and Johnny contributed to the world of music. Rest in Rock
Astro Zombies The Misfits Oh, all I want to know All I want With just a touch of my burning hand I send my astro zombies to rape the land Prime directive, exterminate The whole human race And your face drops in a pile of flesh And then your heart, heart pounds Till it pumps in death Prime directive, exterminate Whatever stands left All I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you And all I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you Oh, all I want to know All I want With just a touch of my burning hand I'm gonna live my life to to destroy your world Prime directive, exterminate The whole fuckin' race Then your face drops in a pile of flesh And then your heart, heart pounds And it pumps in death Prime directive, exterminate The whole fuckin' place well All I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you And all I wanted to say And all I gotta do Who'd I do this for Hey, me or you Oh, all I want to know All I want to know All I want to know All I want oh Go
You know he doesn't say prime directive. He actually say " I'd do anything to exterminate..." I saw an interview were he said nah all I said was " I'd do anything- but I rekon prime directive is better so if everyone wants to think that then fine." Listen closely and especially on 12 hits from hell version you can really hear it.
The Misfits are recognized as the progenitors of horror punk, releasing a series of singles and EPs beginning in 1977 before releasing their first full-length album Walk Among Us in 1982. And also T.S.O.L., who released Dance With Me in 1981.
I've head the mcr cover version first and for some reason never listened to this one. but i'm listening to a misfits playlist and it came on AND I'M JUST REALY HAPPY RIGHT NOW
Glenn and Jerry only reunited for a once in a lifetime (last time) chance for the young generation to witness the real 80s punk horror!! June 24th in Tampa Florida.. let's goooooo
Видеоклипы
Horror punk with that 50s doo-wop sensibility. Magic.
I wouldn't say doo-wop. More like that classic teenage, Chevy, going to make out lane 1950s rockabilly sound.
Probably the most underrated song of them. Its creepy and full of hate, but still there is a small glimmering of melancholy
Yeah it’s really upbeat and happy and easy to tap your toe to, but he’s singing about extermination of the human race, and falling into piles of flesh. The contrast is fun.
Couldn’t hve said it better
sarcasm??
This is why I love Danzig era so so much!
Underrated?
this is one of the greatest punk songs ever written
Just the best
Without question
Horror Business is my favorite Misfits song but this is a better punk song. I'll have to agree.
The harmony is hilarious
I love the fast little up strums at the end of the Oooooooohhs in the chorus. hot
I'm 48 and just realized I've spent over 3 decades singing my heart out along to this song. Greatest punk song ever written!
46 here and I feel the same way.
44 and it's my go to jam
Not the greatest, but ya, great
I wanna write a book about you!
@@ModernConversations when
this is what all punk bands want to be.
+Robert Adams or at least horrorpunk bands yeah

i am pretty sure, gbh, subhuman and discharge wont to be like this
catchiest fucking band ever.
I've had this stuck in my head ever since I woke up. Made me smile and run around the house singing it at the top of my lungs.
Oh, you too? I thought it was just me...
thats the spirit!!!
@@snakekeeper2073 you and me both
Thats the ONLY way to do it!!!! Loud and proud!!!

skatin' and listening to this was basically my childhood
we can say that you had a great childhood
Me and my friend Ellie ride around (her on a skateboard , me on a bike) listening to music like this all day, and we call ourselves the misfitz gang lol. Fun times.
I am living that childhood right now
Same here!!!!

Yeah bro! Me too
I saw Misfits in Chicago last night. I was a fan who never dreamed of seeing Danzig and Only together. My life is completely changed after last night.
i was also there right behind the VIP fence the show was OUT OF THIS WORLD
Claudia Barnes you to
i went to both chicago and nj show
Ethan Dombrowski don’t forget Doyle
New Jersey, great show!!!!
Not enough good things can be said about this song. Doesn't matter how bad of a mood, it works everytime
I'm a complete Misfits noob. Somehow made it into my 30s and never heard any of their music...holy crap I missed out, this is amazing.
Same. Except I’m 41
24 but I still feel like I missed out on some development here
Was about fifteen when I learned about them. Thank God for Cliff burton

The most joyous song ever written about raining down extraterrestrial destruction on Earth.
Sophomore year talent show! Don't know how we were able to enter with this song but we rocked It!
1st place!
I can't even begin to estimate how much I listened to this tape in my teens. I had three copies for the car, my room, and 1 for the basement stereo. My favorite track from my favorite punk band. Sounds like a time machine to me
Bro who else loves the GOOO at the end. I think that’s what makes the Misfits. That yell is legendary.
the hallmark of punk rock music i think, is that you have the other members doing back up vocals too. its like that for many punk bands i like
to me...the best song of Misfits, ever!
hell yeah! 👊
@@admiralmouse yep
It is. I fell in love with this song 30 years ago. Now, this is my (estranged) kid's favorite Misfits song.. That's something special
This entire album is a Horror Punk masterpiece. I'm surprised more bands haven't covered this and a lot of the rest of this album.
I've been listening to this for over 33 years. Goose bumps still
how were you able to sit still for so long?
@@pieterwillembotha6719 good one
I can't believe his fucking voice, dude. Such an awesome, sort of rockabilly vibe from it.
+CERVIX Crusher Dude, harsh. I'm gonna need some kool-aid for these salty snacks you're dispatching.
hahaha his screen name is CERVIX CRUSHER
+CERVIX CRUSHER You do know that Elvis is one of Danzig's idols, right? It's the rockabilly influence that makes Misfits so fucking good.
elvis is rocknroll. no rockabilly influence on danzig before rockabilly was a thing. danzigs style of singing originated in italy anyways.
Justin Smoot Elvis pretty much popularized rockabilly...
Best Misfits song!
Fuck Yeah!
***** massa man tua foto slayer curto mt se tu tiver face me add laa man e claudinha moura minha foto e uma cabessa de um mininazinha
Marcin Polaszyk my favorite!!!
One of the the best thats for sure.
Last Caress is their Magnus Opus
Glen danzig you absolute legend!
Glen crushed this song, so great
Years ago jammed with a guy who couldn't speak good English well but he could sing the shit out of this song rock on man
Whooiooooooah DRUNK ELVIS
lol DRUNK and DEAD too
Underrated track, in my opinion.
I am having this song played at my funeral.
My condolences
Yasss!!
I'm having this song played at the entire human race's funeral.
Be my guest!
@@Joseph-cp6du And..i'd be proud!!!
Top 3 Misfits songs. Classic, absolute masterpiece!
What’s the other 2?
This my favorite MIsfits song. Also love Hybrid Moments and Night of the Living Dead. Those probably round out my top 3.
This song is absolute genius.
@@mackeydirk8643 yeah hybrid moments is wicked Last caress is pretty twisted too.
it's so catchy once you get it in your head, you can't get it out
Hybrid Moments and Astro Zombies are my favorite songs from The Misfits.
Same. Hybrid moments is my fave. Astrozombies 2nd
with the touch of my burning hand..
I send astro zombies to rape this land

Like wise that's punk
Started listening to them in '98 when I was 14. Saw them play in Atlanta in 2001, and got a chance to kiss Jerry Only after the show 🥹
Here after it got removed from spotify
Any reason why they did?
@@Dr.Unlucky probably over money since this has Danzig
It's back on, dw.
I saw their reunion tour a few years back when they played the forum in Inglewood and literally the entire Fuckin venue sang every word of every song, and this one for some reason really stuck with me, always reminds me of hearings so many voices singing this chorus at the top of their lungs
Fiend club for life
If that's a fortnite reference I get it
Thee fiend club is a misfits reference. Fans are called fiends
You gotta love the backing vocals. They super on point!
I'm waiting for the day this song gets played in a future zombie movie or Walking Dead episode. I can only hope.
I could listen to the misfits all day everyday, for the rest of my life! Their music is just to bloody amazing! =P
I'm listening to this, AND watching Astro Zombies.
Beat that folks.
Among us.
I'm 24. Just got into Misfits, even tho all my friends from middle to high school were the goth/stoner type who wore their shirts.
I wasted 24 years of my life goddamnit.
It's okay! I'm in my 50s and found this at a record store in the 80s. I loved 50s and 60s cheesy horror movies, (and punk rock). You find cool shit when you find it.
I didn't get into The Misfits until my 30s. I also felt like I wasted my youth. But now I blast them whenever possible
I wish this album catapulted them into the mainstream. It deserved to.
💀🤘 Misfits' best song IMO.
The lyrics! The godamn lyrics!
Saw Misfits for the first time Saturday night in Tampa with Megadeth and sadly I’ve never listened to the Misfits and they were awesome! I’m a new fan at 44 years old🤘🏼They put on a badass show.
Awesome to hear, brother. Horror punk is a good time & it’s interesting hearing Danzig croon like Elvis about dark subject matter
Dude, I’ve been trying to see them live so much recently and I’ve been a diehard fan for a while. So happy your first misfits experience could be live! Horror punk is great.
Right on and welcome!
oh you are lucky i have been listening to them since legacy of brutality cassette in 85 or 86 and never never seen them and danzig together
This is one of the greatest songs of all time.
I can listen to this album a thousand times and it doesn’t get old.
cant get the day underway without atleast 10 misfits songs,.

Greatest song ever. When i heard it it was like hearing elvis the first time
for music homework I got told to listen to different types of music that will explain why I've gone from oasis to cradle of filth to David bowie and now to misfits
It's nice to be able to like anything and a little bit of everything. I'll never get people who limit themselves to specific genres.
^
i went from early gg allin to the temptations one time lol even i had to laugh at myself.
Lewis Moore not that broad
I went from louis armstrong to the stooges to nada surf and now misfits
I used to listen this song for hours on Tony Hawks American Wasteland. Memories :')
that was the mcr cover i love both versions though and im an actual skater and im saying that was an amazing game man memories of 2005
My favorite game when i was a younger.
SynT Hellven favorite game now

Yessss! Also California Uber Alas by Dead Kennedys
It's my last day at work tomorrow. I'm gonna fully skate through the store with a portable speaker on my side blasting this the moment I clock in.
Wish me luck.
good luck with what happened 4 days ago!
20 years this year since I first listened to The Misfits. Still the greatest band on earth (AD).
Good ol' skateboarding music!
sure was now skater kids are into rap
+Fothcrah Not even good rap, haha!
***** nnnyess
fuck yeah!
Shredded to this on my Powell+Peralta Caballero in the 80's!
Been listening to this song for years, never gets old 🤘
Will be 50 years old this year. Been a fan since mid to late 80's. Saw the Jerry fronted version a few years ago, was a decent show and he hung out forever signing shit after. Finally getting to see The Original Misfits tonight in Tampa... Hoping to hear 3 songs and I'll be happy. Astro Zombies, Where Eagles Dare, and London Dungeon. Of course Bullet would be a bonus for sure!!! Keep punk alive my Friends, Fellows, and Fiends.
All of the more new horror punks wish they were these guys and anybody who tells you otherwise just can't find there ass with both hands.
What a hidden gem
One of the best misfit albums!
i heard a Danzig song today... once the second guitar solo started i put this on.
remembering
sitting in a lawn chair, beer in hand, my backyard neighbor works on his car.
listening to Cousin Brucie .
doo wop playing in a Lodi barber shop.
"whadya mean shave one side"?
This song played over and over in my head while i was dreaming one night. I never wanted to wake up.
Still f ing rocks in 2020 !
This movie bored the hell out of me. How did it inspire this masterpiece?
glenn got a soft spot for b flicks
Very Nice, Verrrry Evil!
Best song on earth!
Can we all agree that Glen wanted to be the punk Elvis.
MISFITS e RAMONES as melhores bandas punk de todos os tempos.,

Punk will never be the same.
Punk is dead.
The best horror punk song of all.
among us? sus 😳
Who the fuck would thumbs this down!?!? Suck a great fuckin song
Good song to start 2024 off to.
I remember when this shit was so underground, i had to get a taped copy of everything I could from a kid named Greg Young. He was bootlegging crimson ghost skull t shirts in his garage because in 1985, we couldn't find any.
On my screen, I have an ad for a movie called Where Eagles Dare, what a win
My dad fucking skipped over this in the car and claimed "it was ass" this shit slaps idc what anyone says
edit: He doesn't even hate misfits he just won't listen to any misfits song that isn't glen danzig singing smh
Your dad has poor taste. This song is a banger.
@@psyche5893 Exactly omg
I bet he listens to rap huh

You should have told him to go back to it
Discovered this song 5 years ago, been listening it intensly since.

Thanks for posting the lyrics
You know he doesn't say prime directive. He actually say " I'd do anything to exterminate..." I saw an interview were he said nah all I said was " I'd do anything- but I rekon prime directive is better so if everyone wants to think that then fine." Listen closely and especially on 12 hits from hell version you can really hear it.
One of the greatest albums ever recorded.
Always was a great track.
Always will be a great track.
I played this song at my Wedding reception ❤️
Walk AMONG US
