I discovered The Damned by way of the cassettes my brother left in my room for safe keeping while he was away in the Peace Corps. I was at that age where I was looking for something loud and rebellious so it would seem a band called The Damned would scratch the itch. Needless to say it wasn’t nearly as dark and offensive as I had hoped but it was terribly catchy. Time went on and I started to collect as many Damned releases as I could get my hands on (witch was quite a bit) but the only ones I listened to with any regularity were _Damned Damned Damned_ and _Machine Gun Etiquette_ (ok, _Light at the End of The Tunnel_ got a lot of play as well). _Machine Gun Etiquette_ is quite simply the best Pop Punk album ever made, just barely topping _Singles Going Steady_ which isn’t a true album so there ya are, the best. To this day I slap this disc on and sing along with every word, pretending like I’m 15 and in my bedroom pissed off at my mom about something or another. For this silver anniversary edition of MGE I have added all of the single B-sides none of which were on the original LP. Also there are alternative versions of all three A-sides and finally the video clip for Plan 9, Channel 7. It is such a complete album that I didn't want to clutter it up with demos and out-takes. Maybe they'll appear elsewhere someday.

Or ...*"Nibbled to death ..by an Okapi" i think. Or you don't think it's a good lp? , maybe you should be " Nibbled to Death .."??... its certainly one of their best & a .great return for the 4th/5th??? line up..& the Capt showing himself to be a very capable guitarist & Algy laying down some super deep bass runs - the high point of 'Antipope' .it would have been good for 'Liar' to have the full blown drum workout as heard on the Peel session ,but it could have been regarded as 'a joke' ..that the band certainly were not - 'serious fun' ,I think . energetic, aggressive, male vocalist, rebellious, raw, anti-religious, anthemic, melodic, boastful, passionate, lo-fi, repetitive
