Bought the MGE album on the day of its release and i still feel there is no song of theirs better than Melody Lee. Maybe only equal to it. It has to be a short 2 minutes as any more would dilute its beauty. The vocals seem to reach forever. They are brilliant.

Yes…at this moment in time, I will agree, the damned are the greatest band of all time!! I don’t much concern myself with their eclecticism these days, though, as with the sheer BLUDGEONING FORCE with which they played on the first couple singles/debut lol…oh, and on melody Lee lol I believe when people think of punk’s forward-propulsion, and then they play Never Mind The Bollocks they’re like, “wtf if this?!?”…not that I don’t love NMtB, and I do realize “Punk” was NEVER meant to imply anything like uniformity in playing styles or anything…that’s kinda how it evolved/devolved into some of the crappier hardcore bands from the 80s. But I digress… The Damned’s first couple lps - and stiff little fingers* lol - are who I go to for some buzzsaw guitar and some freaking HUMOR, man, I think we sometimes overlook that aspect of The damned… Lord knows, some of these guys who become rock stars, right away the sense of humor goes right out the window lol… * - ok, the buzzcocks too…

That whole Deadly Class pilot was packed full of awesome songs, but super glad this classic got some exposure. The whole album (Machine Gun Etiquette) is fanfuckingtastic, and if anyone is unfamiliar with them, I recommend starting there. It's still early enough that it's not in their "goth" phase yet, and not as rough as their first album. Power pop Brit punk, through and through.

Early Damned albums - as good as punk gets. Great live also. All went tits up for me when Vanian turned goth, although Strawberries was still a great album. At least they progressed in a punk-stylee rather than going all dub and reggae like the Clash. Last saw them in about 1985 in a small 'punk' festival near Brixton - miles better than the other acts.
