THE DAMNED Machine Gun Etiquette (Originally released in 1979, Machine Gun Etiquette marked a decisive turning point for The Damned. Produced by Ace Records mainstay Roger Armstrong, the album refined the band's punk urgency into a sharper, more controlled statement without sacrificing speed or intent. It remains one of the most influential UK punk albums of its era. The record delivered several of the band's defining singles, including "Love Song", "I Just Can't Be Happy Today" and the era-spanning "Smash It Up", tracks that expanded The Damned's audience and helped establish their long-term creative trajectory. Across its full runtime, the album balances aggression with wit and melodic ambition, laying foundations that continue to resonate as the band. This edition is limited to 500 copies and pressed on Fuchsia Vinyl as part of the Ace Records 50th anniversary celebration series. Picture sleeve with hype sticker, factory sealed).
