As they developed musically The Damned were not afraid to add more elements to their music including a mild case of psychedelia and potent goth darkness.‘History Of The World Part 1’ and ‘Wait For The Blackout’ were just two fantastic singles lifted from “The Black Album”.Other tracks such as ‘13th Floor Vendetta’ and ‘Drinking About My Baby’ remain potent.The third side was given over to the ambitious 17-minute long ‘Curtain Call’ and the fourth contained live versions of classic tracks.This Anniversary Edition is limited to 500 copies pressed on white vinyl.
