The Damned Release New Album 'So Who's Paranoid'

• 20th Oct 2008

'So, Who's Paranoid?' Certainly not The Damned, who have conjured up yet another collection of genre-defying anthems that sit effortlessly alongside their classic albums, their first since 2001's critically-acclaimed 'Grave Disorder' album. From the catchy, jangly garage rock opener of 'A Nation Fit For Heroes' to the lushly psychedelic closing track 'Dark Asteroid', The Damned masterfully affirms their legendary status. Thirty-two years on the heart of The Damned that is David Vanian and Captain Sensible beats stronger than ever, proving with 'So, Who's Paranoid?' that their trademark dark, melodic beauty, tinged with jagged satire is truly timeless and very much intact. They might be a band with an incredible past but The Damned are very much here and now and the thirteen songs featured here are all the proof you'll need. 'So, Who's Paranoid?' is released 17th November.
