  • Official trailer for the film THE DAMNED: Don't You Wish That We Were Dead, the authorized documentary of the punk pioneers. Directed/produced by Wes Orshoski (co-director/producer of "LEMMY"), the film features all four original members of the Damned (Captain Sensible, Dave Vanian, Brian James and Rat Scabies), plus appearances by Chrissie Hynde (Pretenders), Mick Jones (The Clash), Steve Diggle (Buzzcocks), actor/comedian Fred Armisen, Nick Mason (Pink Floyd), Duff McKagan (Guns N Roses), Lemmy Kilmister (Motorhead), Jack Grisham (T.S.O.L.), Keith Morris (Black Flag/Circle Jerks/OFF!), Dexter Holland (The Offspring) and many more. Shot around the world over the past four years, the film makes its debut at SXSW in March 2015. The third prong in the holy trinity of UK punk, with the Sex Pistols and the Clash, The Damned were the first U.K. punks to release a single ("New Rose") and album ("Damned Damned Damned"), and the first to tour the U.S. Having logged hits in the punk, new wave and goth eras, they are one of the only surviving bands from punk’s first wave.

    Punk isn't a contest. It's not about battle of the bands. However the Damned are one of the very few who have stayed absolutely superb as they span the decades.

    Easily one of the greatest rock bands of all-time....Screw punk, new wave, goth, and every other genre The Damned were considered a part of. In the end, "Machine Gun Etiquette", "The Black Album", and "Strawberries" are three of the greatest albums ever recorded by man. As for their debut "Damned, Damned, Damned" LP it took me 2 seconds when I was a 14 year old kid to realize that The Damned were the TRUE '77 UK Punk band despite the media hype which propelled the S. Pistols into infamy. The Damned probably influenced more underground bands than ANY other '77 punk group. They refused to let themselves get boxed into one genre and because the band always consisted of superior musicians (Brian James, Algy Ward, Paul Gray, Roman Jugg, etc.) in addition to the core brilliance of Captain Sensible, Dave Vanian, and Rat, they were able to go in directions few "punk" groups had the chops to pursue. Plus they were absolute music fanatics and weren't afraid to incorporate psyche, 60's Brit-pop, 60's garage rock, 70's crazies like Hawkwind, Pink Fairies, as well as all the classic MC5, Stooges, The Up, etc. material into their sound. I just hope this documentary TRULY does them justice.

    Great documentary, saw it last night, it covers all the era's well (nice new version of 'Curtain Call'), with lots I didn't know and lots that I'd forgotten about. Also explains the current in fighting (ie. Sensible vs Scabies). I'd recommend going to watch it.

    I’d never really looked into The Damned until I saw them open for Blondie earlier this year. It was so fucking good, and now I’m down a rabbit hole and feeling so lucky to have seen them while simultaneously so sad that they’re STILL now opening for people. They definitely deserve more recognition.

  • @phelimheming8593
    @phelimheming8593 Před 7 lety +3

    Amazing that none of them were killed or institutionalized. They would set fire to their tour bus on their way to a gig, and worse. The other bands were largely contrived, but these boys lived it.

  • @thebarbaryghostsf
    @thebarbaryghostsf Před 9 lety +39

    I certainly hope this doc doesn't rip on their 1980-85 period of more commercial, and polished Goth/Post-Punk material. IMHO that is some of their most compelling work, and it seems like every hardcore fan hates that material. Strawberries, The Black Album, Phantasmagoria, and Anything were all really excellent albums. The less we talk about the mid-90's the better though.

    • @heathergordon2565

    Y'know I've been a fan of The Damned since 1984, followed them on tour lumped in their gear for them when they were skint, went to the chippy for them etc.
    I couldn't give a flying fuck for this documentary, its just a piece of second hand reviews of a period that has gone told by jaded people. Thats not how I want to remember them . . . I thought it was a really crappy documentary. It just was a big butch between old members. It didn't show the fun or great anecdotes of some of the wild times. I think the band deserved more. They're the best Rock n Roll band ever ♠️⚡🖤

    Bandwagon Jumpers, complete rip off of The Ramones sound. The Sex Pistols were first, best & most original. The Damned will never be regarded as groundbreaking. Pistols formed in 1975 8 months before The Damned did in 1976. The Damneds first gig was SUPPORTING The Pistols!!! Then they took the first offer they got just to get a single out first. Everyone knows the Pistols were the band that started the movement.
