Deth Red Sabaoth

Released in 2010, Deth Red Sabaoth is Danzig's ninth studio album and is widely considered a 'return to form.' After years of exploring industrial metal and more experimental textures, Glenn Danzig returned to the stripped-down, blues-based heavy metal that defined the band's first four albums. The recording process was notably focused on analog equipment, with Glenn Danzig handling much of the bass and even some drum duties himself to ensure the specific 'old-school' feel he desired. The album features Tommy Victor on guitar and Johnny Kelly on drums, providing a tight, professional backbone to the record's occult-inflected hard rock. It reached number 35 on the Billboard 200, marking the band's highest chart position in sixteen years. Sonically, it is defined by its lack of modern production tropes; there are no triggered drums or digital pitch correction, resulting in a raw, authentic sound that emphasizes the band's unique intersection of Black Sabbath-style doom and Elvis-inspired vocal delivery.
