the damned

hadn't thought about the damned in awhile until teague mentioned 'em last night. not only did rat scabies and captain sensible have two of the best monikers to come out of the whole brit punk movement, but these guys actually released the first u.k. punk album and were the first of the class of '76 to tour the states. i liked 'em better once the good captain had switched from gtr to bass for their '79 machine gun etiquette alb, whence these songs come.
