5.0 out of 5 stars Fairly unknown to the 'Normal' music world, yet so valuable., June 25, 2000
By A Customer
I first listened to this album years ago. Fisrt listen- I was disgusted. Second listen- I was agitated. Third listen- I was indifferent. Fourth time- I loved it.

The Damned have almost been forgotten in the music world, yet their music from the seventies is still as contemorary today as it was when first released. This collection of crusty punk staples will make you cringe, make you laugh, make you wanna mosh. I recommend the Damned collection to ANY rock or punk or alternative music listener looking for something different to rediscover and bring a little excitement into their lives. Here lies some of hard rock and alternative's greatest influence in the past 20 years. Long live the DAMNED!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely Killer, June 10, 1999
By L. J. Ruh (Omaha, NE) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Yes, I was a punk rocker in high school and used to listen to this album, I found this on CD recently and was psyched!! It is every bit as good now as it was then. It doesnt seem like brainless crap like some of the other bands I listened to way back when and now wonder why.

5.0 out of 5 stars one of my favorites
I love the Damned. These guys rock. I saw them at the Warped Tour a couple years ago. They were one of the best bands there but of course they didn't pull in a big crowd. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Collection, but...
Some more stuff from the "Damned, Damned, Damned" and maybe a song from "Music For Pleasure" would of been nice. Read more
