		Like the Sex Pistols, the Damned imploded soon after their phenomenal debut, but fortunately, they reunited within a year and had a long and remarkably consistent career, a rarity in punk rock.
		Damned Damned Damned was one of the very first punk albums to be released and it was the first by a British group, as well as one of the very best from the first wave of punk, even though Britains first wave was technically the second wave.
		Damned Damned Damned was the Damned's first album and certainly their best.

	QUEEN OF THE DAMNED
		Watching Damned is damned sad because Aaliyah clearly had a bright acting career ahead of her.
		Damned, which returns exactly zero actors from Interview, is primarily about the vampire Lestat, who, despite being described as a tall, curly-haired blond, was originally played by dark-haired dwarf Tom Cruise.
		I'm sure I won't be alone in saying Damned would have been much better with more Akasha and less of Jesse's story, which is simply that of the typical vampire flick character who, for some reason, wants to get their neck bitten because they're curious about the whole undead thing.

	BBC - Radio 1 - Keeping It Peel - The Damned
		They were dismissed as the support act for the Sex Pistols' Anarchy tour, but made up for it by being the first UK punk band to tour the US.
		The Damned weren't as angsty as many of their contemporaries, they had a love of the theatrical that meant they were not taken as seriously.
		"The amusing thing was quite a few other people had heard that the Damned were in, and every now and again we got people creeping in through the door, looking in through the window to see if they were being sick all over the place or spitting at us.

	The Damned : iSOUND.COM
		The punk era was epitomized by spiky hairstyles, safety pins through varying parts of the anatomy, disorder, abrasive guitar riffs, a general lack of respect for anything that smacked of establishment and destructive rock 'n' gob performance from the Damned.
		The Damned charted with fifteen singles in total and had their greatest success in the "vamp" days of the mid 80's.
		The Damned are one of the most outrageous punk bands of the 80's since the Misfits.

	The Damned: album reviews and ratings
		The group's hat trick of 'firsts' came with the release of their debut LP "Damned Damned Damned", in February '77 which hit No.34 in the UK Top 50 and was the very first punk LP to dent the charts.
		But when they come out with something in the vein of Damned Damned Damned, we say, "Been there, done that." Well, it doesn't matter how "old" the sound is, The Damned are one of the few bands who can successfully revisit a sound they inspired 20 years ago.
		Overall this is a solid and diverse Damned album that would please many different audiences, but I'm sure that The Damned are capable of putting together an effort that would be appreciated a lot more by the Darkwave audience if they would readopt more fully their mid 80's style.

	Splendid: Features: The Damned
		Me solo albums are a bit poppier than the Damned, and Dave's Phantom Chords have their distinctive style, but the Damned has its own sound, and it's weird how that almost imposes itself on a song without us even trying to achieve that result.
		Splendid: The Damned and your own solo albums have been graced, not only with great music, but with wonderful extras, from smelly sleeves and Captain Sensible dolls to LP covers where you have a nice, cottony Santa beard.
		Splendid: It's great not only to have the music you and the Damned have given us, but the whole band persona, which for me seems as necessary to punk culture as Huck Finn and his raft are to literature.

	The Popkorn Junkie :: Queen of the Damned
		What a lot of people may not know is that "Queen of the Damned" was originally intended to go directly to video stores, completely skipping the theatre circuits.
		From what I have read, the reason for the direct to video decision is that the producers didn't feel the movie had the potential to make a heavy impact at the box office.
		Aaliyah might have one day made a good actress, but if this film is any indication of the pentacle of her acting ability--she should be remembered for her music.

	BBC - Lancashire Going Out - The Damned
		However, no one in this audience was offended, and the Damned's Captain Sensible said that they were the best support band he had seen in the last five years.
		The Damned were celebrating the 25th anniversary of their classic (recently reissued) album 'Machine Gun Etiquette', so it was not surprising that they started with four tracks from the album, opening with the hit single 'Love Song'.
		Unlike a lot of bands who have been going for this length of time, this is not a cabinet show, and the material the band are producing now, stands well with their earlier work.

		But finally, 25 years after their start, The Damned boast the ultimate lineup and are at the peak of their creativity and potential.
		Says Pinch, of his contribution to The Damned, “My musical influences are at least a decade later than the rest of the band, encompassing not only the second wave of punk rock but also the energy and excitement of the rave explosion hence my use of break beats and super groovy non-aggressive playing.”
		Yes, The Damned were the first to publish a punk rock single, the first punk band to tour the States and influencers of countless other bands.

		Many will argue that Damned, Damned, Damned was the first UK punk album proper and it's hard to disagree with that.
		I didn't hear of The Damned until years after this, their first LP release, so this was a dynamite blast of epic proportions after The Black Album.

	The Damned - midomi
		The Ramones hold deserved pride of place for kick-starting the whole thing, while the Sex Pistols and to a lesser extent the Clash helped take it to an even more notorious level, role models for many young bands to this day.
		It was vindication on a commercial level a decade after having first started, but the Anything album in 1986, flashes of inspiration aside, felt far more anonymous in comparison, the band's worst since Music for Pleasure.
		The Chaos Years is a 12-track compilation of rarities and unreleased cuts the Damned recorded between 1977 and 1982, designed to appeal to hardcore Damned collectors.

	Chris Hunt \| The Damned
		This first single of the revolution might well have ensured that The Damned could scrawl their name large on the title page of rock’s battered and mistreated book of remembrance, but there were no coincidences here.
		The Damned might have been the first punk band to release a single and to appear on the telly, but they were also the first punk band to split up.
		The general chaos of The Damned’s touring lifestyle had taken its toll on the band through 1977, but ultimately it was Brian James who pulled the plug.

	The Damned @ Nostalgia Central
		The band were signed to the new Stiff label by Jake Riviera and released the classic track New Rose, produced by Stiff stablemate Nick Lowe, becoming the first punks to release and chart with an album (the enduring Damned Damned Damned - also produced by Lowe) in 1977.
		It was the start of a small venue "toe-in-the-water" tour that provoked a healthy response amongst college kids but failed to convince record companies and mainstream radio that punk had anything significant to offer.
		By now, The Damned had changed almost beyond recognition (with Vanian adopting a Zorro persona in place of the old Goth) and finally faded in the late 80s.

	Permanent Records: Albums From The A.V. Club's Hall Of Fame \| The A.V. Club
		Granted, garage rock and late-'60s psychedelia were never alien to The Damned by any means; shades of those sounds had been surfacing in their songs since 1977's ill-fated (and underrated) Music For Pleasure, for which the volatile outfit ditched punk orthodoxy and enlisted Pink Floyd's Nick Mason as producer.
		But in 1980, The Damned dove too recklessly into reinvention: The double-length The Black Album, while admirably ballsy, had too few hooks hiding in all the keyboards and bloat.
		The greatness: After the opening track, "Ignite"—The Damned's last great punk song—amply lives up to its title, Strawberries simmers with "Generals," a piano-driven tune that swipes a lick from Pink Floyd's "Lucifer Sam" even as it spits some timely anti-military sentiment in the wake of the Falklands War.

	Queen Of The Damned at DVDwolf.com
		First off, once a man in that genre becomes too popular his fans turn on him, one need only look at the dwindling of Manson as an example although now he is being relatively ignored his true fans still flock to him, but the point is, they are a small and select group.
		In Queen of the Damned, everybody is Goth.
		Queen of the Damned on a whole doesn't make sense...scenes go on way to long, others are pointless...for example, Lestat says to Jessie, you want to see how vampires live?

		It's widely asserted that the Damned were the first UK punk band to record, beating both the Clash and the Pistols to the punch.
		Although Sensible stuck with the Damned for two more years, he finally left in August 1984 due to the friction his parallel career was causing.
		The authenticity of the Damned's discography from the late 80s onwards is open to question, while their back-catalogue has proved ripe for exploitation by all manner of compilations and poorly produced live albums, to muddy further the picture of a genuinely great band.

	The Queen of the Damned
		A deep, dark, stylistic adaptation of the book by Anne Rice from her hugely popular series of vampire novels, THE QUEEN OF THE DAMNED is like a Nine Inch Nails rock video.
		Queen of the Damned is too long with too little going on.
		There's a bit of thematic meat on the bones of Queen of the Damned, as its origins in an Anne Rice novel dictate, but generally, it's a movie that emphasizes style over character and substance.

		The Damned were formed in London, England, in 1976.
		Although The Damned have had a turbulent history, there is no doubt that their music and attitude still prevail with all the energy of that original 1976 line-up, and their back catalogue of 8 studio albums have endured the test of time...
		I just saw "Hairspray" on broadway yesterday, and it made me think that the Damned has a lot of music that would be great on the stage.
