Blackacidevil

Danzig 5: Blackacidevil is the fifth studio album by American heavy metal band Danzig. It was released in 1996 on Hollywood Records, and was reissued through E-Magine Records in 2000 with three extra tracks. The album sees the band shift to a largely industrial-based sound.

==Background== The album is the first recorded by Danzig after its departure from producer Rick Rubin's record label, American Recordings. It is also the first album recorded after the demise of the "classic" lineup featuring John Christ, Eerie Von, and Chuck Biscuits. Only the band's leader Glenn Danzig remained, backed by drummer Joey Castillo, who had joined the band in 1994 immediately after the departure of Chuck Biscuits, after having started as his drum tech, and session bassist Josh Lazie, who had previously toured with Danzig as Eerie Von's bass tech. Guitarist Tommy Victor joined the band shortly after ''Blackacidevil's completion.
