10 Most Outrageous Lead Singers In Punk Rock Music

10. Glen Danzig

Although founding member of the Misfits, Glen Danzig, only performed with the group for six years, the image of him as the skull-wearing, muscle-toting frontman, has become iconic of punk.

The Misfits have come to symbolise the visual spectacle of the American scene during '70s. If you combined the theoretical costumes of Kiss with the fast paced energy of the Ramones you'd get Misfits. Formed in 1977 by frontman Glen Danzig, it took a while for the hype around these guys to take off. Danzig was a huge of fan of Elvis and rockabilly music, but it took a certain amount of fine tuning before he could incorporate these influences into the popular rock trends of the '70s.

Eventually Danzig and co. were inspired by the other punk groups of the era, to adopt a fast paced style, becoming forerunners of the hardcore scene. They distinguished themselves with their horror-inspired costumes and make-up, but it was Danzig's Elvis-like croon that stood him apart from other frontmen on the scene.
