OVERVIEW

Made available again in honour of the 40th anniversary of its initial release. A limited edition in red vinyl.

MARKETING & PROMOTION / SELLING POINTS

Made available again in honour of the 40th anniversary of its initial release. A limited edition in red vinyl.

Stymied by the BBC, who refused to play this punk rock call to arms, it nevertheless made #35 in the UK charts. To this day it is a hit in

the hearts of Damned fans worldwide, with its glorious melody and rousing chorus.

It has replaced ‘New Rose’ as the encore of choice, guaranteed to send ‘em home spitting.

Still touring to this day, the Damned are the last of the class of ’77 left functioning. Catch them at a dancehall near you...
