Title track is one last glimpse at the bands’ better days, great rough & melodic music. The flipside is more like the Wolfsblood LP - short and fast hardcore blasts, still these are probably their catchiest tracks of their hardcore phase. In retrospect, Glenn Danzig was absolutely right to end the Misfits at this point - they had nowhere to go from here, and the Samhain concept was radically different, so it would have been a shame to release Initium under the Misfits' name.

3 tracks aus der Wolfsblood-Periode, also mehr HC als die früheren, melodischen Sachen. Der Titeltrack ist trotz seiner Rauhheit ein absoluter Hit und geht sofort ins Ohr; die anderen Songs sind auch ganz ordentlich. Leider nur 6 Minuten lang.

Tracks: die, die my darling // we bite / mommy, can i go out and kill tonight?
