The Damned
The Damned are a London punk rock band whose first run helped establish the recorded history of UK punk before the group expanded into gothic rock, psychedelia, and theatrical dark pop. Formed in 1976 by Dave Vanian, Brian James, Captain Sensible, and Rat Scabies, they were the first British punk band to release a single, New Rose, and the first to release a full studio album, Damned Damned Damned. That early work is fast, sharp, and mischievous, driven by James's guitar writing, Scabies's explosive drumming, Sensible's presence, and Vanian's dramatic voice. The Damned fit accepted scope directly through punk rock, and later through gothic rock and post-punk. Albums such as Machine Gun Etiquette, The Black Album, Strawberries, Phantasmagoria, and later releases show a band far less one-dimensional than punk history summaries sometimes imply. They could be comic, savage, romantic, and eerie, often with a taste for 1960s garage and horror imagery. The Damned's importance is twofold: they helped launch UK punk as a recorded force, then proved that punk musicians could mutate into darker, stranger forms without losing personality or bite.
