The Damned - Final Damnation (1988) DVD Rip (683mb = 71 min.)


The Damned, along with the Sex Pistols and The Clash, formed the vanguard of the early UK punk scene.

Recorded on 13 June 1988 at the Town and Country Club, London, this concert brings together the members of The Damned for a one-night-only performance. The first eight songs feature the original line-up of Dave Vanian (vocals), Captain Sensible (bass and lead guitar, and backup vocals), Brian James (lead guitar) and founding member Rat Scabies (drums). The last half of the set has Brian Merrick (guitar) and Roman Jugg (keyboards) mounting the stage for what seemed to be the gothic phase of The Damned's career, circa 1982.

Running for 71 minutes, the concert itself is indicative of the genre, with sloppy playing and high energy levels. Like Glen Danzig, Dave Vanian delivers his vocals with an annoying Elvis Presley twang. Captain Sensible – the clown of the band – enjoys insulting the audience between songs. His tedious banter threatens to drain the life out of the gig (the body language of his band mates suggests that they too have limited patience for his editorials). I suspect that the edits from one track to the next serve to abbreviate some of these detours. Also to this end, a review of the show is read by a mock radio announcer especially for the DVD between songs. This works well, except that the voice-over runs into parts of band playing.

Coverage of the band and the crowd is good, switching between wide angle shots, medium shots, and sweaty close-ups. The audience appears to enjoy the show: the whole mosh pit was thrashing about, not just the section near the stage. Of course, for a revival concert like this one, you would expect most of the punters to be rabid fans. Note that there are no end credits after the concert.

With a few caveats, Final Damnation is recommended to students of punk and certainly to "children of The Damned" itself. As far as punk goes, I personally prefer later bands like The Dwarves, The Dead Kennedys, The Exploited and Bad Religion. Watching Final Damnation provided a neat history lesson in the origins of the species.

English Dogs - Psycho Killer (Cherry Red Records) DVD RIP (799mb = 120 min.)

Formed in the early eighties, by drummer Pinch, the English Dogs, blazed onto the punk scene. They played their music hyper aggressive and ultra tight a sound that would become their signature. Their debut 12” “Mad Punx and English Dogs”, which was released in 1983 on the Mike Stone’s seminal punk label Clay Records, was praised by the critics and had success in the Indie chart. They quickly followed this a year later with the legendary classic “Invasion Of The Porky Men” LP, a record that would ensure them their status as icons in the punk world. They spearheaded the punk/metal crossover initiated by the cult guitar hero Gizz Butt, and became one of the most exhilarating bands on the scene both sides of the Atlantic, their name emblazed on the back of many a leather jacket!! By the late 90s Gizz had joined forces with The Prodigy and the English Dogs had reformed as Janus Stark. Regardless of the changes the English Dogs legacy lives on and continues to excite and inspire many young bands and punks today! Released for the first time on DVD these two gigs are taken from the legendary Barn End archive and show the Englsh Dogs at different stages of their metamorphosis into Janus Stark. The first was shot at Castle Rock, Edinburgh on the 13th August 1994, prior to Gizz joining The Prodigy when the band was a four piece. The Second was recorded at the much celebrate Holidays In The Sun Festival at Blackpool winter Gardens on 11th August 1996. Packed with hardcore riffing and adrenalin fuelled mayhem, we can only marvel at the shear sonic energy on display. The English Dogs may be no more, yet long may their legacy live on!

Peter And The Tset Tube Babies - Cattle & Bum | Live In Manchester(DVD Rip) (443mb = 45 min.)

The first ever DVD release from one of Punk's longest serving and popular bands, Peter And The Test Tube Babies. The Test Tubes have been releasing classic punk anthems since the late 1970's, and are still going strong to this day. The DVD features two unique presentations of the band. ''Cattle And Bum" is an entertaining and creative film, constructed by the band themselves. A testament to the humour and energy that the band generated over a decade, the film contains live footage old & new, promos, interviews and plenty of silliness. A classic. "Live In Manchester" features an 'as it happened' record of the band at their most uncouth. This archive performance includes much previously unseen footage, as the 'Test Tubes' hurtle recklessly through their repertoire. Many of the Test Tubes hits are featured on the DVD, with "Banned From The Pubs", "Run Like Hell", "Blown Out Again" and Moped Lads all at their raucous best. The band's back catalogue will be re-released this year, along with a brand new album. Sleeve notes on the DVD come from Test Tubes lead singer Peter.

Disk 1: CATTLE AND BUM: Excuses | Moped Lads | Shit British Tour | Moped Lads | The Jinx | Alcohol | Transvestite |Blown Out Again | The Gardener | When I Fall In Love | Vicars Wank Too | Leader of the Gang | Shit At It | LIVE IN MANCHESTER: Moped Lads | Easter Bank Holiday 83 | Keep Britain Tidy | Never Made It To The Bog On Time | Up Yer Bum | Get Me On The Guest List | One Night Stand | Run Like Hell | The Jinx | Transvestite | Banned From The Pubs | Elvis Is Dead | Maniac

Adicts - Let's Go (VHS Rip) (780MB = 41min.)


The Adicts are an English Punk rock band from Ipswich, Suffolk.

The Adicts began life as the Afterbirth & The Pinz, in their hometown of Ipswich in late 1975. Popular in the 1980s, they were often in the indie charts at that time.

They soon changed their name to The Adicts and became known for their distinctive Clockwork Orange 'Droog' image, which, along with their urgent, uptempo music and light-hearted lyrics, helped set them very much apart from the rest of the genre. Temporary 1980s name changes to 'Fun Adicts' and 'ADX', mainly to coincide with children's TV appearances, also occurred.

Their song "Viva La Revolution" was featured in the video game Tony Hawk's Underground.

The band still has all its original members, uncommon for a band with such longevity.

Angelic Upstarts - Play At Home Documentary 1984 (451mb = 46min.)

The Angelic Upstarts were formed in South Shields, North-East England in mid 1977. Influenced by bands such as The Clash and The Sex Pistols, they were a meeting of working class ideology and musical aspiration. Mensi was always liable to provoke reaction, his lyrics making much of his working class roots, and lashing out at police and politicians. When they weren't kicking a pigs head around onstage Northumbria's finest were knocking out class songs like their debut Murder of Liddle Towers and others like Student Power and I'm An Upstart
The original line up consisted of Mensi - Thomas Mensforth (vocals), Mond (Ray Cowie) (guitar), Steve Forsten (bass) and Decca Wade (drums).

Buzzcocks - Live In The Markthalle, Humburg, Germany, Janyary 1981 (573mb = 57 min.)

The band was formed by Pete Shelley and Howard Devoto soon after they had met and travelled to London together to see the Sex Pistols in February 1976. Shelley and Devoto were impressed by what they saw and arranged for the Sex Pistols to come and perform at the Lesser Free Trade Hall in Manchester, in June 1976. Buzzcocks intended to play at this concert but were unable to do so as they lacked a bassist and a drummer. Once they had recruited Steve Diggle and John Maher, they made their debut opening for the Sex Pistols' second Manchester gig in July 1976.

Black Flag - Live 1984 (DVD Rip, 698mb = 57min.)

Black Flag was a hardcore punk band formed in 1976 in southern California, largely as the brainchild of Greg Ginn, the guitarist, primary songwriter and sole continuous member through multiple personnel changes.

Black Flag forged a unique sound early on that mixed the raw simplicity of the Ramones with atonal and microtonal guitar solos and frequent tempo shifts. Over this could be heard lyrics—mostly written by Ginn—about isolation, neurosis and paranoia, themes which did not disappear when Henry Rollins took on the role of lead singer in 1981. Most of the band's material was released on Ginn's independent label, SST Records.

Black Flag were (and remain) well respected among their underground culture, with their influence primarily in their tireless promotion of a self-controlled DIY ethic and aesthetic. They're often regarded as pioneers in the movement of underground do-it-yourself record labels that flourished among the 1980s' punk rock bands. Through seemingly-constant touring throughout the United States and Canada, and occasionally Europe, Black Flag established an extremely dedicated fan base. Many other musicians would follow Black Flag's lead and book their own tours, utilizing a word-of-mouth network.

Over the course of the 1980s, Black Flag's sound, as well as their notoriety, evolved in ways that alienated much of their early punk audience. They were part of the first wave of American West Coast punk rock, are considered a key influence on the punk subculture, and are especially important in the creation of hardcore punk. Along with being among the earliest punk rock groups to incorporate elements of heavy metal (particularly in their later records), there were often overt jazz (mainly free jazz) and contemporary classical elements in their sound, especially in Ginn's guitar playing, and the band interspersed records and performances with instrumentals throughout their career. They also played longer, slower, and more complex songs at a time when many bands in their milieu stuck to a raw, fast, three-chord format. As a result, Black Flag's extensive discography is more varied than many of their punk-rock contemporaries.
