Q: Henry and Glenn is totally pee-your-pants hilarious but I get the feeling that there's a steady current of love and respect for those dudes' work in it. Tell us about your own Rollins and Danzig fandom. What do you love about their music?
I've been a huge fan of The Misfits since I first heard Last Caress in the 6th grade. Being a small town kid who was mostly listening to Mötley Crüe at the time, Glenn's lyrics were the most evil thing I'd ever heard, so I immediately had to seek out more. The Misfits were my introduction to punk rock and dark themed music. Considering now that most of my music buying is in the black metal section, it kinda set the course for my future listening pleasure. Black Flag came to me much later. I became a fan of Henry Rollins after seeing his spoken word performance at my college in '94. Not long after that I got into their music as well. I made a lot of my strips riff on some of their well known lyrics because I just love those songs so much.
