Music for Pleasure

The Damned

A transitional blast of 1977 punk. Produced by Pink Floyd's Nick Mason, it trades raw speed for a heavier, dual-guitar garage rock crunch.

November 18, 1977 · Union Square Music

A restless and gritty energy that balances punk aggression with a growing musical curiosity.

Moments Worth Listening For
The unexpected saxophone squall from Lol Coxhill on the closing track 'You Know' adding a free-jazz chaos to the punk finish.
The relentless, driving bassline of 'Problem Child' that immediately signals a heavier, more muscular sound than their debut.
The way 'Idiot Box' stretches out into a five-minute jam, hinting at the band's future experimental and psychedelic tendencies.
