English psychedelic punk legends The Damned are returning to Australia and New Zealand in March 2017 for their 40th anniversary tour.
Since their formation in 1976 and playing their first gig as supports to the Sex Pistols, The Damned have carved their own path.
They released UK punk’s first LP, followed by 10 studio albums, 15 live records and countless more 45s.
Known for songs like “Neat Neat Neat”, “Love Song”, Smash It Up” and “Eloise”, they’re ranked one of the most influential punk groups.
After a series of line-up changes and a temporary break-up, the band have continued to release masterful music, with their latest offering “So, Who’s Paranoid?” their first album in seven years.
The tour will be lead by original members Captain Sensible on guitar and the remarkable David Vanian on vocals, as well as long time members Monty Oxy Moron, Pinch and Stu West.
Dates and ticketing dertails after the break.
