DANZIG's 2010 album “Deth Red Sabaoth” is being reissued on August 21, 2026 via Cleopatra Records, arriving in seven separate physical formats as Glenn Danzig's catalog reissue campaign continues.
“Deth Red Sabaoth” was DANZIG's ninth studio album and its first in six years, following 2004's “Circle Of Snakes”. It became the band's biggest commercial success since “Danzig 4” sixteen years earlier, charting at No. 3 on the U.S. independent and hard rock album charts and No. 35 on the Billboard 200.
The record was independently produced and built deliberately around old equipment and analog technique — in particular a set of 1970s Kustom bass amplifiers Glenn had recently acquired. “You'll hear real reverb, real tremolo on this album,” he said at the time, and reviewers largely agreed, singling out the album's return to the bluesy, doom-inflected songwriting of DANZIG's earliest records after the more industrial detours of the preceding decade.
The album's recording lineup drew on longtime associates: TYPE O NEGATIVE drummer Johnny Kelly and PRONG's Tommy Victor both contributed. Its ten tracks include “Hammer Of The Gods”, “Rebel Spirits”, “Left Hand Rise Above” and the two-part “Pyre Of Souls”.
Part of the reissue's justification is scarcity. Original pressings have become collector items with prices to match — roughly $50 for the CD, $150 for the picture disc and as much as $250 for the fan box — putting the album out of reach for anyone who came to DANZIG after 2010.
The new edition addresses that with a spread of options: standard CD, cassette, black vinyl, black/red haze vinyl, a blood splatter horror swirl vinyl variant, plus box sets built around both the black and the black/red haze pressings, all with upgraded packaging.
The reissue continues a steady stream of Cleopatra-issued DANZIG catalog work in recent years, and lands with Glenn Danzig's profile as high as it has been in some time, between his ongoing film work and continued selective live appearances. For a record that was widely treated on release as a genuine late-career return to form, a proper wide-availability reissue is overdue.
