The Damned release deluxe 3 LP edition of 'The Black Album'


A limited edition collectors hardcover edition of the Damned's 1980 album The Black Album will be released on November 17th.  The original 1980 version was released as a double album with assorted live tracks, however the new version adds an extra set of rare bonus tracks, and will released as a three-LP set on grey colored vinyl. Take a look at the tracklisting for the set below and pre-order now through Plastichead.

The Damned is currently wrapping up its short tour of the U.S. this week. On Tuesday, October 28th Captain Sensible will make an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers, so be sure to tune in! It's unknown what he'll be performing, however Sensible's side project The Sensible Gray Cells (also features ex-Damned bassist Paul Gray) released an album titled A Postcard From Britain last year, so it will likely be something off that record.
