Doyle fan club poster, envelope & sealed Kryst The Conqueror cassette
featuring Misfits members Jerry Only and Doyle
This auction is for the sealed 1989 Kryst The Conqueror "Deliver Us From Evil" cassette, and original Doyle Fan Club poster and envelope. From Wikipedia:
Kryst the Conqueror (Pronounced "Christ the Conqueror") was an American Metal project formed in August of 1987 by two former members of the horror punk band, The Misfits. The project was led by bassist Jerry Only, who adopted a new stage name, "Mo The Great" (or alternately, "Mocavious Kryst"), and his younger brother, guitarist Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein. The band fused fantastical and sci-fi imagery with religious themes and messages. The band has also been referred to as a "guitar shop project", as Only and Doyle constantly tweaked and refined their instruments throughout the band's existence, in an attempt to create what they felt would be the ultimate bass and guitar.
In 1988, they formed The Doyle Fan Club in order to promote the new project and stay in touch with fans of The Misfits. According to various interviews conducted at the time, and a series of fan club letters written by Jerry Only (as "Mo The Great") from 1988 to 1990, Kryst the Conqueror was meant to be Only's vision of the "perfect" band. He hoped the "righteous" message of the band would reach out to fans, especially those who had followed former Misfits frontman, Glenn Danzig's post-Misfits career with the bands Samhain and Danzig - bands which Jerry felt were satanic, evil and possibly damaging to impressionable youths.
The cassette includes the songs "Thunder Thruster", "In God We Trust", "Trial of the Soul", "March of the Mega-Mites" and "Spellbound". This is the less common version with the band name included on the insert card.
The poster was at one time hung up, but doesnt have any pin holes, rips or tears and is in very good shape. There is tape on the back, folded over onto itself and not sticky.
Envelope is the original one I received back in 1990.
