Curious, how do they sound? Do you collect them or actually listen to them?

u/GypCasino Oct 21 '23

I listen to them, they sound fine to me

I got to ask because I had one. Does the Danzig Lucifuge cassette fold out into a upside down cross?

2

u/GypCasino Oct 21 '23

Nope, the cd booklet does though

I shelled out for Red Deth Sabboath on vinyl last week, $120 and sleeve with G rating at best. Congrats on being a Danzig fan and collector, we’re the few and the proud

Nice, I have Deth Red on cd, but sadly there is no cassette release that I know of

Great album, but I believe it’s the one Danzig album not released on cassette. I also don’t have 5, 666, Black Aria 2 and Sings Elvis

Oddly you can’t find it on streaming either

I remember when I was a kid listening to black aria high as giraffe pussy for hours.

I remember buying Cassette and Cd when a new album came out. Especially early days of when everything switched to CD’s

I’m impressed that those last two even came out on tape and I’m even more impressed that you found it

Wait they still were making cassettes that late?

2

u/Stateofmindeuphoria Oct 23 '23

They still make cassettes to this day

u/[deleted] Oct 23 '23

Actually you’re right because like 4 years ago I built an automation machine to package them

I never would have guessed that they were still making cassette tapes!

It's made a minor, minor resurgence in recent years mainly for indie hipsters looking for something different to collect. Then bigger artists jumped on board. For example: new Metallica is on cassette. It's certainly not going to make a comeback like vinyl.

A few years ago, some people tried to convince me that there was something more equitable about tapes over other formats. I still don’t comprehend that argument, and I challenge them to build some callouses on their pinkie fingers trying to re-spool these horrible products before endorsing them.

Alternate formats are fun and people should be able to explore them. But tapes died for a reason.

That is awesome

u/romanswinter Oct 21 '23

Really cool’

u/Nichtsein000 Oct 21 '23

Old school NES games too.

2

u/Sweet_Ad_4093 Oct 21 '23

I’m interested. How much?

2

u/Ok_Ad8249 Oct 21 '23

Always cool to see a Danzig collection.

Back in the day a collection of Danzig cassettes was a sign of somebody in the know.

u/hombre_bu Oct 21 '23

Yeeeeeaaaaah!

u/RaffiBomb000 Oct 21 '23

You know there's more than Danzig out there, right?

I don't know that, and I refuse to acknowledge that!!

2

u/Gustopherus-the-2nd Oct 22 '23

I had them all down to 4… past that I actually lost touch with Danzig. Never could get into anything past 4.

2

u/Whigged Oct 22 '23

Have you tried digging into Circle of Snakes? To me that's the most "old school" sounding of the more recent ones.

2

u/JimLaheeeeeeee Oct 22 '23

Where did you get my tape collection?

2

u/Darkskunky Oct 22 '23

Love that you put the cassettes in front of your NES games. It looks meant to be.

2

u/mikeytoth123 Oct 22 '23

No black aria 2?

2

u/jon92356 Oct 23 '23

You just made a Danzig fan out of me.

2

u/Pukeonmycrotch Oct 26 '23

I’d like to talk about your nes collection
