Music and recording
6:66 Satan's Child has a mostly industrial metal sound.[1] It was the first Danzig album to be produced using digital recording methods.[6] As with its predecessor Blackacidevil, several songs include effects-treated vocals.[7]
The lyrical themes on the album include pain, evil and death.[8] "East Indian Devil (Kali's Song)" was written about the goddess Kali.[9]
Glenn Danzig originally wrote "Thirteen" for Johnny Cash, whose acoustic version appears on his 1994 American Recordings album.[10] Danzig's own version of "Thirteen" is gothic blues in style.[11] The song is a mournful dialogue of a life blighted by bad luck and misery.[10] Danzig's version is featured as the opening song in the 2009 film The Hangover.[12]
A remixed version of "Belly of the Beast", called "underBelly of the Beast", appeared on the soundtrack to The Crow: Salvation in 2000. A remix of "Unspeakable" appeared on the soundtrack to the Grub Girl pornographic movie.[13]
Artwork and packaging
The regular album cover is by Simon Bisley, and a limited edition "internet-only" cover by Martin Emond.
A special edition of the album, distributed in Europe by Nuclear Blast, came with a Satan's Child cover art sticker and was packaged in a black jewel case.
Reception
- College Music Journal – "On his sixth album 6:66 Satan's Child, Mr. Danzig keeps moving forward with his signature ideas. The album has belligerent riffage, effects-treated vocals, and doom 'n' gloom lyrics...Satan's Child is like a midnight ride in a hearse through a cemetery."[7]
- Blistering – "A tightly-alloyed descent into the miasmic world below built on Glenn Danzig’s post-industrial musings, evil-dead harmony and plenty of aggression...Ultimately, 6:66 Satan’s Child is well written and convincingly delivered."[11]
Music videos
A music video was released for the song "Five Finger Crawl".
