Circle of Snakes is the eighth studio album by Danzig. It was released on August 31, 2004. It is the first studio album by the band since their debut recording not to have a number incorporated into its title. Circle of Snakes was recorded at Ocean Studios and Paramount Recording Studios, both based in California. As with the band's eponymous debut, Circle of Snakes features a somewhat stripped-down sound. For the recording of his vocals on Circle of Snakes, Glenn Danzig sought out microphones that would give his vocals more bottom end. Danzig's vocals are less prominent on most songs; instead the guitars, bass and drums are at the top of the album's mix. The album also features a notably heavy guitar tone.
