丹泽是美国重金属乐队，1987年在新泽西州洛迪成立。 乐队是歌手兼词曲作者Glenn Danzig的音乐出路，之前是恐怖朋克乐队Misfits和Samhain。 他们以受黑人安息日早期音乐影响的蓝调恐怖重金属风格演奏。Danzigis an Americanheavy metalband, formed in 1987 inLodi, New Jersey. The band is the musical outlet forsinger-songwriterGlenn Danzig, preceded by thehorror punkbands theMisfitsandSamhain. They play in abluesydoom-driven heavy metal style influenced by the early sound ofBlack Sabbath.

Beginnings (1986–1987)[On July 14, 1986,Samhainperformed atThe RitzinNew Yorkin what was to be their final show. In attendance wasRick Rubin, who was scouting for potential bands to sign to his record label,Def Jam Recordings. Rubin at first wished only to sign Danzig himself, with the intent of making him the vocalist for a hard rocksupergroupthat Rubin envisioned. However, Danzig refused to sign to Rubins label without Samhains bassistEerie Von. In 1987, he addedJohn Christon guitar andChuck Biscuits(ex-Black Flag) on drums.To reflect the change in musical direction and avoid having to start anew after future lineup changes, Glenn, on Rubins advice, changed the name of Samhain to his surname, Danzig.The first release from the band, minus Eerie Von, was the song You And Me (Less Than Zero) from theLess Than Zerosoundtrack and credited as Glenn DanzigThe Power and Fury Orchestra.
Classic original lineup-era (1988–1994)[In 1988, the band released itsfirst albumon Def American (later renamed toAmerican Recordings).
In 1990, Danzig released its second album,. By 1992, Rubins involvement with the band had waned. Danzig himself took credit for co-producing the third album,. In the following year, the band released theEP, which contained several live tracks from the bands 1992 Halloween show as well as three new studio tracks. The live version of Mother, a song from the first album, became popular on hard rock radio stations. A new version of the Mother music video was created using live footage, and the video became a hit onMTVas well.
On October 4, 1994,was released. The album sold well, but did not contain a hit on par with the Mother single. The albums second single, Cantspeak, was also a staple in MTVs rotation, but unlike Mother failed to appear on theHot 100. Cantspeak is the bands only single other than Mother to chart on Billboard. Amid accusations of unpaid royalties and broken promises, Danzigs relationship with Rubin deteriorated, and the band left the record label.
Around this time, the bands lineup began to dissolve as well. First, Chuck Biscuits left the band in the summer of 1994 due to royalty disagreements. According to a special issue of, formerNirvanadrummerDave Grohlturned down an approach by the band. Biscuits was replaced byJoey Castillo, who made his first public appearance as a member of Danzig at an in-store signing the day of the fourth albums release. Coincidentally, Castillo would later replace Grohl inQueens of the Stone Age. Although the band had toured successfully with its new drummer during the fall and winter of 1994-95, by the spring of 1995 Danzig was actively seeking a new guitarist, withPepper KeenanandDez Cadenaconsidered possible replacements.John Christ and Eerie Von resigned on July 5, 1995.
Post-original lineup-era (1995–1999)[In October 1996,was released. The album was mostly a solo effort by Danzig, althoughJerry CantrellofAlice in Chainsplayed lead guitar on three of the albums tracks.Joey Castilloplayed drums, the sole member still in the band from the 4p Tour. Castillo would record on two more Danzig albums, making him the longest-standing member outside of the original lineup.
For the next few years, Danzig was tied up in a legal battle with Rubin over the rights to unreleased material the band recorded for American Recordings. In November 1999, Danzigwas released. A long-planned Samhain box set was also released, followed by a Samhain reunion tour. Samhain opened for Danzig for six weeks during the tour and consisted of Steve Zing and London May switching between bass and drums.
Later years (2000–2005)[By 2000, Danzigs line up had stabilized with the addition of guitaristTodd Youthand bassistHowie Pyro, both veterans of the New York City punk scene. In 2002, this line up released the album. In 2004, Danzig released their eighth studio album,, with the line up featuringTommy VictorofProngon guitar, who had toured as a member of Danzig years earlier.
Soon after the albums release, Danzig undertook the Blackest of the Black tour across the United States, replacingdrummer Bevan Davies withJohnny Kelly(ofType O Negative).
起点（1986-1987）
1986年7月14日，Samhain在纽约丽兹酒店进行了最后一场演出。出席的是里克鲁宾，他正在寻找潜在乐队与他的唱片公司Def Jam Recordings签约。 Rubin起初只想签署Danzig本人，目的是让他成为Rubin设想的硬摇滚超级组的主唱。但是，如果没有Samhain的贝司手Eerie Von，Danzig拒绝签署Rubin的标签。 1987年，他在吉他上添加了约翰基督，在鼓上添加了Chuck Biscuits（前黑旗）。[2]为了反映音乐方向的变化，并避免在未来阵容发生变化之后重新开始，Glenn根据Rubin的建议，将Samhain的名字改为他的姓氏Danzig。[3]乐队的第一个发行版，减去Eerie Von，是来自Less Than Zero原声带的歌曲“You And Me（Less Than Zero）”，并被称为Glenn Danzig＆The Power and Fury Orchestra [4]。
“经典”原始阵容时代（1988-1994）
1988年，乐队发行了Def American的第一张专辑（后来改名为American Recordings）。[2]
在1990年，但泽发布了第二张专辑“Danzig II：Lucifuge”。到1992年，鲁宾对这支乐队的介入已经减退。 Danzig自己因为合作制作第三张专辑“Danzig III：神如何杀人”而获奖。在第二年，乐队发行了Thrall：Demonsweatlive EP，其中包含乐队1992年万圣节表演中的几首现场曲目以及三首新的录音室曲目。第一张专辑中的歌曲“母亲”现场版在硬摇滚电台中流行起来。新版本的“母亲”音乐视频是使用实时录像制作的，而且该视频也成为MTV的热门。[2]
1994年10月4日，丹泽4被释放。这张专辑卖得不错，但没有与“Mother”单曲相媲美。这张专辑的第二张单曲“Cantspeak”也是MTV旋转中的主角，但不像“Mother”未能出现在Billboard Hot 100上。“Cantspeak”是乐队唯一一张单曲，除了“母亲”在Billboard上作图。在指责未付版税和违反承诺的情况下，丹泽与鲁宾的关系恶化，乐队离开唱片公司。
在这段时间，乐队的阵容也开始消失。首先，Chuck Biscuits在1994年夏天由于皇室分歧而离开乐队。根据Kerrang！的一个特殊问题，前涅v鼓手Dave Grohl拒绝了乐队的做法。饼干取而代之的是乔伊卡斯蒂略，他在第四张专辑发行当天签署了第一次公开露面的Danzig成员。巧合的是，卡斯蒂略后来将取代石器时代皇后的格罗尔。虽然乐队曾在1994年至1995年秋冬季期间与新鼓手一起成功巡演，但到了1995年春，Danzig正在积极寻找新的吉他手，Pepper Keenan和Dez Cadena考虑过可能的替代品。 1995年7月5日，约翰基督和Eerie Von辞职。
后原始阵容时代（1995-1999）
1996年10月，Danzig 5：Blackacidevil被释放。这张专辑大部分是由Danzig独奏的，尽管Alice的Champion Cantrell在专辑的三首曲目中演奏了主音吉他。 Joey Castillo饰演鼓手，仍然是4p Tour乐队的唯一成员。卡斯蒂略将在另外两张但泽的专辑中录制，使他成为原始阵容之外最长的成员。
在接下来的几年里，Danzig与Rubin进行了一场合法争夺，争夺了为美国唱片录制的未发行材料的权利。 1999年11月，丹泽格6:66撒旦的孩子被释放。计划已久的Samhain套装也已发行，随后进行了Samhain团聚之旅。 Samhain在巡演期间为Danzig开放了六周，由Steve Zing和London May在低音和鼓之间切换。
晚年（2000-2005）
到2000年，Danzig的阵容已经稳定下来，纽约市朋克场景的退伍军人吉他手托德青年和贝司手霍伊派罗也加入了阵容。 2002年，这个阵容发布了专辑Danzig 777：I Luciferi。 2004年，Danzig发行了他们的第八张录音室专辑“Circle of Snakes”，其中包括吉他手Prong的汤米维克多饰演的阵容，他曾在多年前参加过但泽的巡回演出。
在专辑发行后不久，Danzig承接了全美最黑的黑色巡演，用Johnny Kelly（Type O Negative）取代了Circle of Snakes鼓手Bevan Davies。
