Label: Stiff Records
Year: 1977
Damned Damned Damned fires up with “Neat Neat Neat” featuring production that’s not too dirty and not too clean in classic Nick Lowe fashion. The monster single “New Rose” was the perfect way to introduce London punk rock to the world and “1 of the 2”sounds like it’s so in the red that it shouldn’t be listenable. Guitarist Brian James mission and execution spearheads a power trio sometimes possessed, always focused and equally convincing at breakneck speed or at a slower jaunt, and in true punk rock fashion The Damned have to stretch out the Stooges cover at the end to take the 12 song record over the 30 minute mark. That’s punk rock!
