The Damned - Darkadelic [TRANSPARENT + SLIPMAT]

28.4.23 - TRANSPARENT VINYL LP + SLIPMAT (0217910EMU)

46 years after releasing the ground-breaking debut, Damned Damned Damned , The Damned return with Darkadelic , their twelfth studio album. The album, from the band that launched punk and invented goth, once again innovating and expanding upon their unique universe. The “The Invisible Man” track is a showcase for Captain Sensible’s riffadelic guitarwork and David Vanian’s snarling baritone vocals. Darkadelic barrels along from there and features some of The Damned’s sharpest song writing and genre-bending performances reaching peaks with other tracks such as “You’re Gonna Realise” and “Beware of the Clowns”, drenched in classic horror movie references, nods to swinging 60’s London, and a refined palette of musical influences. The Damned will indeed paint the world Darkadelic in 2023.
