American Psycho is the fourth studio album by the American punk rock band Misfits. Released on May 13, 1997,[3] it was the first to be recorded and released without the band's founder and former leader Glenn Danzig.[4] Bassist Jerry Only, after years of litigation, reached a settlement with Danzig and was granted the rights to use the band's name and image to record and perform. The album also marked the addition of singer Michale Graves and Dr. Chud on drums.[4]

Originally, the album was going to be titled Dead Kings Rise, a play on the band's resurrection, but was changed when the title track did not make the album.[citation needed] The album was produced by New York City based musician Daniel Rey, who had previously worked with artists such as the Ramones and King Missile.
