      They weren't cartoony live. Unfortunately, The Damned were misunderstood by the industry just didn't know how to market the Damned. Even when they released Phantasmagoria the record label (MCA) didn't know how to market them. Are they a goth band, a punk band, a pop band?

      @@chickybluetherealone The Damned were not ahead of their time, though they were better musicians than many of the other punk bands of time. Malcolm McLaren is on record stating that The Damned were too good as musicians and it was the main reason he didn't want them anywhere near the same stage as The Sex Pistols. The Damned were thrown off the Anarchy in the UK Tour just for being better musicians than The Sex Pistols and The Clash.
      Don Letts has said the same as well. Don Letts has also stated that The Damned were there to party while the other Punk bands were being serious politically and about social issues. The Damned brought the party.
      But, The Damned were influenced by The MC5, Iggy Pop, and Alice Cooper. The Damned were not doing anything new or groundbreaking, but they did bring a different energy and they brought the party.

With the follow-up of a marathon of the Young Ones-what an intro to nonconformism-back when mtv thought they could pull that off-& THE DAMNED ON THE YOUNG ONES, & MADNESS, PERE UBU, +more...). But lare nite, 12-4a.m. bay area radio the jesus&mary chain, intro to death rock& the damned, my first punk. I loved my musical awakening-then kicking in the doors to ska, new wave-no wave,darker waves & synth. Bowie & bauhaus&rammstien& Falco, white&black early rap& Falco alone at the top, & tons of alt-pop in the early -mid 80's. Still my music, but i like lots of stuff-i just stick with mostly i onoclasts, like old stooges, velvets, ?????? × more! It's great being non-mainstream!!-bb
