A cornerstone of The Damned’s evolution, The Black Album captures the band at their most inventive — blending punk urgency with gothic atmosphere, psychedelic edges and early new‑wave experimentation. This 2023 Ace Records reissue restores the full double‑LP experience, including the epic side‑long “Curtain Call” and a complete live set featuring classics such as “Love Song”, “Smash It Up” and “New Rose”. A definitive document of The Damned’s creative peak, presented across two vinyl LPs with clean, remastered sound.
