The Damned

35 years after they became the first punk band to release a full-length album, it's a minor miracle that The Damned are still going – after all, it's not like they haven't split up enough times over the course of their career. The Goth pioneers have landed in some interesting places recently, not least Disneyland, where they ended up playing a Halloween show last year. But if you can forgive them that much, these old warhorses remain an entertaining bunch, still featuring original vocalist Dave Vanian and guitarist Captain Sensible.
