Earth A.D./Wolfs Blood is the second studio album to be released by American punk rock band Misfits. It is the last album the group recorded with founding member Glenn Danzig on vocals, who issued the vinyl record on his Plan 9 label in December 1983, two months after he played his last concert with the band. Though the original album runs under 15 minutes in length, it is listed as an LP.

The original nine-song album was later issued with the three tracks from the band's 1984 single incorporated into the track listing: "Die, Die My Darling", "Mommy, Can I Go Out and Kill Tonight?" and "We Bite".

Some versions of the album containing these bonus tracks are listed with the title Earth A.D./Die, Die, My Darling.[3]

Glenn Danzig has said that the tracks "Bloodfeast" and "Death Comes Ripping" were originally intended for release on the first album by his subsequent band, Samhain, but were added to what would be the Misfits' final record in a last-ditch effort to save the band.[4]
