Title: The Misfits - Cough/Cool b./w. She
Year/Genre/Sub-Genre/City: 1977, Punk, Proto-Horror Punk, Lodi, New Jersey 6/26
Matrix #: No Label
Condition: New (LM) | Members: N/A
Cultural Facts:
-
Personal Struggle: “She” pulled from the Patty Hearst kidnapping story, turning a real abduction, media circus, and identity collapse into early Misfits pulp.
-
Studio Lore: “Cough/Cool” barely resembles later Misfits, built around Danzig’s electric piano before the band locked into guitar-driven horror punk.
-
Scene Ecology: The single was issued on Danzig’s Blank label in 1977, before Plan 9, before the Crimson Ghost logo, and before the mythology hardened.
