Misfits, teenage angstThere will always be a time for the Misfits in our country. All they did was take punk rock out of New York City and place it firmly in Middle America. They sang songs for uncool kids living in places where nothing ever happens. When you listened to the Misfits, you realized you could be pissed off anywhere for any reason, especially if you had nice parents, three hot meals a day and no reason whatsoever to really despise your classmates.
They were the first band to make rebelling against a cushy adolescence both totally necessary and totally laughable.
