American Psycho (reissue) vinyl

Kings of horror punk Misfits first put out American Psycho in 1997. Their fourth studio album was originally going to be entitled Dead Kings Rise, playing (or should that be riffing?) on their original disbandment between 1983 and 1995, and reunification. This was their second LP after getting the old team back together, and launched from the starting blocks without a hint of apology. "Their goofy formula of lyrics inspired by bad horror movies, poppy vocals, and blasting hardcore is still excellent mosh pit fodder" wrote Entertainment Weekly at the time. Hard, if not impossible, to disagree, American Psycho encapsulated all that made the band so engaging to begin with. Breakneck tempos, tongues in cheek, blood on the dancefloor kind of stuff. Now, ask yourself: what more do you want?
