Editing Danzig (band) (section)

=== "Industrial" era (1994–1999) ===
On October 4, 1994, ''[[Danzig 4]]'' was released. The album sold well, but did not contain a hit on par with the "Mother" single. The album's second single, "Cantspeak", was also a staple in MTV's rotation, but unlike "Mother" failed to appear on the [[Billboard Hot 100|''Billboard'' Hot 100]]. "Cantspeak" is the band's only single other than "Mother" to chart on Billboard. Amid accusations of unpaid royalties and broken promises, Danzig's relationship with Rubin deteriorated and the band left the record label.{{citation needed|date=August 2020}}

Around this time, the band's lineup began to dissolve as well. First, Chuck Biscuits left the band in the summer of 1994 due to royalty disagreements. According to a special issue of ''[[Kerrang!]]'', former [[Nirvana (band)|Nirvana]] drummer [[Dave Grohl]] turned down an approach by the band. Biscuits was replaced by [[Joey Castillo]], who made his first public appearance as a member of Danzig at an in-store signing the day of the fourth album's release. Coincidentally, Castillo would later replace Grohl in [[Queens of the Stone Age]]. Although the band had toured successfully with its new drummer during the fall and winter of 1994–95, by the spring of 1995 Danzig was actively seeking a new guitarist, with [[Pepper Keenan]] and [[Dez Cadena]] considered possible replacements.<ref name="Seconds">{{cite web|url=http://misfitscentral.com/display.php?t=marticle&f=seconds.97|title=Glenn Danzig|first1=Steven |last1=Blush |author-link1=Steven Blush|date=October 1997|publisher=[[Seconds (magazine)|Seconds]]|access-date=October 3, 2009}}</ref> John Christ and Eerie Von resigned on July 5, 1995.

In October 1996, ''Danzig 5: [[Blackacidevil]]'' was released. The album was mostly a solo effort by Danzig, although [[Jerry Cantrell]] of [[Alice in Chains]] played lead guitar on three of the album's tracks. [[Joey Castillo]] played drums, the sole member still in the band from the 4p Tour. Castillo would record on two more Danzig albums, making him the longest-standing member outside of the original lineup.

For the next few years, Danzig was tied up in a legal battle with Rubin over the rights to unreleased material the band recorded for American Recordings. In November 1999, Danzig ''[[6:66 Satan's Child]]'' was released. A long-planned Samhain box set was also released, followed by a Samhain reunion tour. Samhain opened for Danzig for six weeks during the tour and consisted of Steve Zing and London May switching between bass and drums.
