Well, everything the Misfits recorded is great, but if I were starting out I would pick up either Walk Among Us or Legacy of Brutality, or if you want to get samples from most of their early albums (which IMO are by far the best) I would pick up Collection I and II.
Glen left in '83, and in the late 90's the Misfits reformed with a new singer, Michale Graves and put out 2 albums. Those albums are awesome, but the singing style and production are very different than the original lineup, much more 'commercial' friendly. The main complaint many people have when they first hear the Misfits is the lack of quality production on their recordings, but that is part of the greatness.
Also, if you check out Samhain (which is the band Glen formed right after the Misfits broke up in '83) I think you would love them as well (Samhain is slower and more 'dark' than the Misfits were, the Misfits were basically a horror punk band, Samhain is far more serious and 'moody', hard to describe lol).
