The Misfits Announce New Album, Sparking Hope for Horror Punk Revival
In a stunning turn of events, horror punk legends The Misfits have officially announced they are working on a brand-new studio album—marking their first full-length release with the classic lineup in over four decades. The announcement came via a surprise post on the band’s official social media, featuring the iconic Crimson Ghost logo and the words: “The Misfits Are Coming Back… New Album 2025.”
The news has sent shockwaves through the punk rock world. Fans who have followed the band through years of lineup changes, legal disputes, and reunion shows are now witnessing a historic moment—the return of Glenn Danzig, Jerry Only, and Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein to the studio.
According to the announcement, the upcoming album will blend the band’s signature horror-infused themes with fresh creative energy. Early reports suggest that the record will feature new original tracks inspired by cult horror films, modern-day apocalyptic fears, and the raw aggression that defined their early sound.
“The timing just felt right,” Danzig said in a brief statement. “We’ve got the chemistry back, and we want to deliver something true to our roots—and terrifying in all the right ways.”
This new project is expected to reignite interest in the horror punk genre, which The Misfits helped pioneer in the late ’70s and early ’80s. With a loyal multigenerational fanbase and a resurging appetite for gritty, rebellious music, many believe this album could spark a full-blown horror punk revival.
No release date has been confirmed, but the band hinted at a fall 2025 drop—just in time for Halloween. Vinyl pre-orders and limited edition merch are expected to launch soon.
For Misfits fans, the nightmare is far from over—and that’s exactly how
they like it.
