From Punk to Goth to somewhere in between, this is The Damned Retrospective!
And yes, I am aware I made a mistake about Thatcher being in power in '77 when she wasn't elected until '79. I for some reason thought that her reign of terror started earlier than that. My apologies.

The Damned aren't just the greatest UK punk group, but also one of the all-time best rock 'n' roll bands. Rat Scabies drumming was Keith Moon on speed, and Vanian's vocals and image was simply brilliant. The guitar playing of Captain Sensible (and earlier Brian James) was/is phenomenal. And the songs...It's very unfortunate that the band members have had such chaotic personal relationships and that the band never received the profound rock recognition they deserved. In '93, I was a 12 year old kid in Wisconsin. On a school trip to Madison, WI I picked up "Skip Off School To See the Damned: Stiff Singles A's & B's" and it changed my life...I will forever be indebted to the Damned and as far as I'm concerned "Machine Gun Etiquette", "The Black Album", and "Strawberries" are amongst the finest records of the dawn of the 80s and are to the present basically timeless...

One last thought. I saw them in the late 90's with Vanian, Sensible, Monty, Patricia, and Pinch. I'm handicapped, but despite my wife's warnings, I got into the mosh pit. I nearly got stomped to death. I laughed and said, "I'm going to die listening to Captain Sensible!"

@owenwilberforce6138 3 года назад

Dave’s voice to me was always the most consistently excellent voice in U.K. punk, rock, and every other style they sported. It’s rare that any other band kept growing from that period. They were the best at covering 60’s tunes and also keeping their sound fresh with a never ending roster of cool original music. While the the Pistols and Clash were perhaps held as the Titans, the Damned were able to outlast them.

I liked everything from 76 to 86. I saw songs like Restless, Anything Is Better Than This ( original title) and In Dulce Decorum premiered at a 10th anniversary gig in London. My only complaint was there was no studio version of LA Woman released as they loved doing that one live. And these guys played LOUD.

@@Kelly14UK They are extremely fun to go see. My first Damned show was probably in 98 or so. Theyve been excellent every time Ive seen them. Aroumd a dozen times I guess.

This was brilliant! 4 stars! I've been a fan since 1980 till today. I'm a New Yorker that seen them in CBGB's to clubs like the Ritz for the Phantasmagoria tour at the Ritz in 85. In 89 I was in a band that covered alot of the Damned. It was odd that so many people thought we were doing originals. Bar crowds in NYC or NJ had no clue about the Damned. My fave story is seeing them on the Young Ones. We videotaped it on VHS. We all sat down around the t.v. with a remote and learned that song in a few views. We hit the basement and we added that to our set list. The Damned would be a part of the sound track to my life. They meant that much! I thank you for producing a solid, pure look into the Damned's history. One thing left out is the fact they made it to Madison Square Garden in NYC with The Misfits. I was damn proud to see my favorite, longest going , influential punk band get an arena spotlight! Keep up the great work amigo. I still have my tix stubs from 84 on for the Damned!

@muchomacho7300 3 года назад

I'm a 50 yr old who's loved their music since i was 14. Every album has had a period of being the most played album. It also took me 30 yrs to realize Machine Gun Etiquette's musical variety made it the most punk album they released and their best album (not one bad song). I heard no mention about Burglar, Suicide, Torture. All fine songs where the band captured the emotion and the moods behind the lyrics through their playing. I'd be keen to read your thoughts.

@flipnap2112 Год назад

dam dude, this was one of the greatest docs on the Damned ever. you really did your research.. we all appreciate it. I was born winning the decade lottery. 1-0 in the 70's, 11-21 in the 80's. Discovered hardcore in the "minor threat" days.. angry samoans, RKL, Angry samoans, circle jerks, etc. I used to watch "the young ones" and they featured "the damned-video nasty" and I blew up inside. I was so melodic and I could hear the internals of what the damned were. Went through all the albums and unlike many fans of their earlier work, I really REALLY like phantasmagoria. To me it was still the damned, but like on an acid trip. The core load bearing structure of the groups emotion was still there. sometimes a little sappy but it was for a different side of me. played that album to the core. They came to my town somewhere in the mid-late 80s. I was prepared to see a stage covered in fog and vanian in a dark long coat and candleobras on the stage. They just bran sensible back and it was a hardcore true to their core show. I was blown away. They sounded so good and SO tight. managed to see them in LA bout 7 years ago and it was amazing. show was so amazingly tight. They wrapped the show but for the encore played video nasty and a force took me over and like some caffeinated zombie I landed in the skank pit. Lost a shoe and my glasses but boy, what a ride home that was. glad we have these memories. life is short.. be kind to each other

The Damned and Siouxsie And The Banshees are my two favourite bands from the UK Punk scene of the late 1970's, and I always felt like The Damned never really received the credit they deserved, people always talk about the Clash or the Pistols and it seems like the Damned are an afterthought which is unfair. Damned Damned Damned, is a great debut album and while I was never that keen on Strawberries then there was Machine Gun Etiquette which I think was their best early album.

I grew up way out in the country on a farm, so the highlight of the week was friday night and going to the mall, its all any young kid had and the only record store within an hour. Somehow they had a great punk collection mixed in with everything. Once i bought Machine Gun Etiquette, it was on. Fantstic retrospective.

Excellent video. Having been a Damned fan since the 70's I do feel like a lot of people that they were slightly overlooked compared to say the Sex Pistols and The Clash at the time and were treat as outsiders (a bit like The Stranglers) for not towing the (punk) line. But like The Clash they were not afraid to experiment and evolve musically, which is probably why they've enjoyed such longevity.

That is quite telling considering that everybody in the world (including me) feels that they don't get respect; and there were British groups in the 1970's and 80's (Japan, The Slits, and of course The Sex Pistols) that were of perfect exception.

New rose for me is the best punk song of all time. First heard it when I was 15 and still have it in my collection.

Met Captain and the Late Great Bryn ( Bryn wasn't on stage but in the audience suffering from the cancer, I bought a pint ) at a gig in Bristol. It great to see the soundtrack of your life especially your teenage days. Bryn may you pogo in peace.

Currently 37 and the Damned have been my favorite band since I was 18ish. Seen them live more times I can remember lol.
