Product Description

Product Description

A 25th Anniversary special edition of one of punk’s innovative and epoch-defining albums. Contains the whole original album remastered with alternate versions of the three singles and the non-album B-Sides. The Ed Hollis mix of ‘Love Song’ has never been released in any form before and check out the ‘Smash It Up’ instrumental track for sing-a-longa karoake fun for all the family, followed by ‘Smash It Up’ Part 4, the Wessex Studio version, never released before. Also included is the impossibly rare Radio Edit 45 version of ‘I Just Can’t Be Happy Today’ – never re-issued and for the first time ever on CD; the single version of ‘Noise Noise Noise’, ‘Burglar’ and the ‘Turkey Song’. As a special bonus, the ‘Plan 9 Channel 7’ video is also featured. Includes a comprehensive sleeve note from Mojo journalist Kieron Tyler, containing plenty of rare memorabilia and fascinating anecdotes from MGE producer Roger Armstrong, who takes us through the recording experience on a track-by-track basis.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ladies and Gentlemen...How do ! 6 July 2007
Format:Audio CD
When it comes to punk albums there's none better, when it comes to daft punk albums then the Damned's Machine Gun Etiquette is special. I now own this album on vinyl,cassette, CD and 25th Anniversary CD, I can't get enough of it. From Love Song launching the album through to Plan 9, Channel 7 and ending with Smash It Up parts 1 and 2 every track is a real classic. I recently saw the Damned live at the Nottm Rock City (my favourite venue) and they played just about every track from Machine Gun Etiquette which highlighted the importance of this album to the band. Once you have heard this you will be hooked, go on buy it and be happy forever.

4.0 out of 5 stars A forgotten classic 4 Aug 2005
Format:Audio CD
Arguably, The Damned's finest album. The band reformed after the disappointing Music For Pleasure with Captain Sensible changing from bass to lead guitar and showing off a wide range of his influences. Whereas The Damned under Brian James' leadership were stuck with James's Stooges fixation, the new line up allowed them to show off a wider range of skills. Highlights include guitar heroics and proto goth vocals from Vanian on Plan 9 Channel 7, the brilliant singles, including Love Song and Smash It Up and a blistering version of the MC5's Looking At You. Unfortunately, one reviewer seems to think this is a new Damned album and not the great return to form that most punks took to their hearts in 1979. Anyway, what's wrong with new Damned material? Grave Disorder included some great tracks and the band still put on one hell of a show!

4.0 out of 5 stars Noise Is For Heroes! 3 Jan 2003
Format:Audio CD
My favourite of The Damned albums in my collection!
Also a great start to the second phase of The Damned's career.
Of course the early Brian James stuff was good too and definetly
shouldn't be overlooked, but the post James line-up seem
to incorporate more elements and styles into the songs,
giving them more variety.
This is an exciting burst of punk energy and in "Love Song",
"I Just Can't Be Happy Today" and "Smash It Up" has some of
The Damned's finest singles. Other great songs include "Noise Noise Noise",
a brilliant cover of The MC5's "Looking At You" and "Melody Lee".
This is one of The Damned's albums where all the tracks are
strong enough and fit together well. The bonus tracks are also
worthy inclusions. "Smash It Up" is always a great track but
the intricate melodic build up to it on the album makes it even
more formidable. There's a metal influence on the good Captain's
guitar playing and the overall sound, but in a good way rather
than putting off non-metal/punk fans like myself. It helps add
a new element to the music. The Damned at their best!
