Plan 9: PL9/02 (December 12, 1983)
10,000 black vinyl copies. The earliest copies have mis-colored (dark grey instead of black) hair on the center ghoul's head due to a bad printing job. The vinyl is thick and opaque. Matrix etching is PL-902-A (or PL-902-B for side B) MASTERDISK EDP S9, S10, or S11 and front background is light purple. At least 3 of these copies have Earth A.D. center labels on both sides (one owned by Mike Holland, two by Jerry Pardue). The rest of the black vinyl copies are available in three combinations. There is a light purple front cover background version with PL-902-A (or PL-902-B) MASTERDISK EDP etchings on very thin, but opaque vinyl. The dark purple front cover background version on medium thickness, opaque vinyl has the same etching (PL-902-A MASTERDISK EDP). There are also light purple front cover background copies on thin, translucent vinyl with PL-902-A MASTERDISK EDP SM3 in the side A matrix, and PL-902-B MASTERDISK EDP M2 on side B. ~ from Misfitscentral.com
Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood (usually just called Earth A.D.) was the last album the American hardcore punk band The Misfits recorded with Glenn Danzig. Danzig released it on his Plan 9 label in December 1983, two months after he played his last concert with the band. It was noticeably harder and faster than their previous releases. The themes were also quite darker than the previous releases, featuring often gory and demonic lyrics.
Originally released as a 9 song LP, it was later issued with the three tracks of the Die, Die My Darling EP incorporated into the track listing.
In several print and radio interviews, Glenn Danzig has said that the tracks "Bloodfeast" and "Death Comes Ripping" were originally intended for Samhain's first release, but were added to what would be the Misfits' final record in a last-ditch effort to save the band. ~ from Wiki
