Misfits - Project 1950

Well, here we have the expanded edition of the first album featuring Only's vocals. According to the liner notes, Marky's drums were redone but, I don't think so. The original album is pretty good as Only and company tackle classic songs that one would find hard to hate...it's a good tight album that originally doesn't overstay its welcome. However, you move into the bonus tracks and the wheels come off. The only good song is the cover of the Elvis classic "(You're the) Devil in Disguise". I mean, who arranged these!? Only get this if you don't have the original album or if you're a completest who must own everything from the band because, if you are curious of how the new songs stack up, you'll be disappointed. Why doesn't Only record another original album? Devil's Rain was better then I expected and would love to see what he does next instead of rehashing or re-releasing what's already been done before.
