A death rock band from Lodi, New Jersey, formed in 1983 by vocalist Glenn Danzig and bassist Eerie Von following the breakup of The Misfits. In 1987 line-up changes led to the group dissolving and evolving into a completely new band named Danzig. Samhain's last album Final Descent was released after the split-up in 1990. Danzig took the name of the band from the Irish month of November and pre-Christian, Celtic festival Samhain, the origin of the modern Halloween. Despite the festival being pronounced "sau-win", the band's name is often pronounced as "sam-hane". Glenn Danzig has said that both pronunciations are correct. In 1999 Glenn Danzig organized a brief reunion tour in U.S.
