DANZIGwill release a greatest-hits compilation,"The Essential Danzig", on October 25 viaSony Legacy. The exact track listing for the collection has not yet been revealed.

As previously reported,Glenn Danzigwill play several shows in October where he will perform a career-spanning set featuring songs fromDANZIG,SAMHAINandMISFITSwith none other than ex-MISFITSaxemanDoyle Von FrankensteinjoiningGlennon guitar for theMISFITSportion of the set.

When asked about the reports that he is recording an album of covers,Glennsaid in a recent interview, "It's [got] lots of different stuff [on it]. Of course there's anElvis[Presley] song on there, there's aBLACK SABBATHcover! Then I took some old biker-movie theme songs and made them all old punk-sounding or whatever! Just fucking around, really - just having a good time taking songs and giving them a different life or a different dimension. I just do what I feel like doing, as long as I don't just cover it, because that's boring to me. I wanna take it and change it and give it some other kind of thing. Otherwise just leave it alone."

A"Danzig Legacy"TV special is being filmed in Los Angeles this summer and is being directed byMark Brooks(Adult Swim's"Metalocalypse"). More information will be released soon.
