Following a hugely successful UK tour which saw British punk legends The Damned rev up 2018 by playing to over 23,000 rabid fans, including two back to back sold out London shows, the band return this month with a double A side single that is now available via Spotify. Culled from their forthcoming Evil Spirits album, that will be released on April 13th via Search And Destroy Records and Spinefarm Records, the band have released two new songs, Look Left and Devil In Disguise that perfectly represent the albums many shifting moods and styles.
 
Evil Spirits is now available to pre-order here.

Look Left is The Damned at their most epic and grandiose; a sweeping sugar-coated mind-grenade, addressing post-millennial society’s “media-induced coma” over lush vocal melodies and show tune theatrics. Written by drummer Pinch as a love song to the human race, the lush balladry holds a heavy lyrical theme within. Next up, Devil In Disguise is an energetic garage-punk monster, replete with Monty Oxy Moron‘s era-specific Farfisa organ, a raunchy Vanian vocal attack and classic Sensible guitar chimes. Recorded by famed producer Tony Visconti, Evil Spirits is the result of a frantic, high-energy burst of creativity at Atomic Sound studios in Brooklyn in October of 2017, with Black Album and Strawberries era-bassist Paul Gray back in the fold.
