Originally released in 1980, The Black Album represented a significant expansion of their sound and style. When The Black Album came out in 1980 it was an extraordinary leap forward for The Damned. Yes it contained ‘punk’ tracks such as ‘Hit Or Miss’, ‘Drinking About My Baby’ and ‘Sick Of This And That’, but it also strayed into psychedelia with ‘Silly Kids Games’ and especially the mighty ‘Curtain Call’. Punk? Psychedelia? Goth? Who cares what category this album falls into, the only one that matters is Masterpiece!
